CAS 140-89-6

Potassium ethylxanthate

Description:

Potassium ethylxanthate, with the CAS number 140-89-6, is an organosulfur compound that serves primarily as a collector in the flotation process of minerals, particularly in the mining industry. It appears as a yellow to brownish powder or crystalline solid and is highly soluble in water, which enhances its utility in aqueous processes. The compound is characterized by its xanthate functional group, which contains a thioester bond, contributing to its reactivity and ability to form complexes with metal ions. Potassium ethylxanthate is known for its strong affinity for various metal sulfides, making it effective in separating valuable minerals from ores. However, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it can be toxic and poses environmental hazards if not managed properly. Additionally, it has applications in organic synthesis and as a reagent in chemical research. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with potassium ethylxanthate to mitigate any potential health risks.
