Description

Copper(II) diethyldithiocarbamate is a reactive chemical that has been extensively studied. The mechanism of its reaction with hydrochloric acid is well understood. Copper(II) diethyldithiocarbamate reacts with hydrochloric acid to form the copper complex and Zn(II) diethyldithiocarbamate. Copper complexes are known for their high resistance to oxidation, which makes them stable in analytical chemistry. This stability also contributes to their clinical relevance as they can be used in prostate cancer cells without causing oxidative damage. Copper(II) diethyldithiocarbamate is used in analytical chemistry because it reacts with ethylene diamine to produce an intense color change, which can be detected by eye or spectrophotometrically.
