Acetic acid, [(ethoxythioxomethyl)thio]-, ethyl ester

Description:
Acetic acid, [(ethoxythioxomethyl)thio]-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 3278-34-0, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from acetic acid and an ethyl alcohol moiety. This compound features a thioether linkage, incorporating a thioxomethyl group that contributes to its unique chemical properties. Typically, esters like this one exhibit a pleasant, fruity odor and are often used in flavoring and fragrance applications. The presence of sulfur in the thioether structure can impart distinct reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications. Additionally, the ethyl ester form suggests that it may have moderate solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. Its reactivity may include hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions, leading to the release of acetic acid and the corresponding thio compound. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
