Sign in to saveAlso known as 1,2-Dimercaptopropane
1,2-Propanedithiol, sometimes called 1,2-dimercaptopropane, is a thiol with the formula HSCHCH(SH)CH. This colorless, intensely odorous liquid is the simplest chiral dithiol. Related dithiols include 1,2-ethanedithiol, 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid, and 1,3-propanedithiol. It is generated by the addition of HS to the related episulfide, CHCHCHS.
