Overview

Disodium N-[2-(sulfidocarbothioylamino)ethyl]carbamodithioate (CAS 142-59-6) is an organosulfur sodium salt compound with chelating and metal complexation properties. This specialized chemical compound, also known by its EC number 205-547-0, belongs to the dithiocarbamate family and exhibits distinctive coordination chemistry characteristics. With a molecular formula of C4H6N2Na2S4 and molecular weight of 256.4 g/mol, this disodium salt demonstrates significant metal-binding capabilities due to its multiple sulfur donor atoms and nitrogen-containing functional groups. The compound presents specific safety considerations requiring careful handling protocols. Classified under GHS pictograms GHS07 and GHS09, it carries a "Warning" signal word and falls under ADR transport class 9. The substance exhibits acute toxicity (category 4), skin sensitization potential (category 1), and specific target organ toxicity following single exposure (category 3). Environmental precautions are particularly important given its aquatic acute and chronic toxicity classifications (category 1), necessitating proper containment and disposal procedures. Industrial applications primarily leverage its metal chelation properties in specialized chemical processes. The compound finds use in analytical chemistry for metal ion determination, water treatment applications for heavy metal removal, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other organosulfur compounds. Unlike simpler coordination compounds such as triphenyl phosphite, this dithiocarbamate derivative offers enhanced selectivity for specific metal ions. Its coordination chemistry makes it valuable in research applications and specialized industrial processes where precise metal ion control is essential. The compound's unique structural features enable selective binding mechanisms that differ from conventional chelating agents. OYSI provides this technical-grade chemical compound to qualified industrial customers across Europe, supporting specialized applications in analytical and process chemistry sectors.
