4,4′-Dithiobis[2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol]

Description:

4,4′-Dithiobis[2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol], with the CAS number 7580-89-4, is an organic compound characterized by its dithiobis structure, which features two phenolic groups linked by a disulfide bond. This compound is typically a white to light yellow solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. It exhibits antioxidant properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a stabilizer in polymers and as a reagent in chemical synthesis. The presence of bulky tert-butyl groups on the phenolic rings contributes to its steric hindrance, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Additionally, the compound can undergo oxidation and reduction reactions, allowing it to participate in redox chemistry. Its unique structure and properties make it valuable in both industrial and research settings, particularly in the development of materials that require enhanced stability and resistance to oxidative degradation.
