Description

1,2-Ethanedithiol is a molecule that consists of a sulfur atom and two ethyl groups. It can form stable complexes with hydrogen fluoride and trifluoroacetic acid as well as hydrochloric acid. 1,2-Ethanedithiol is reactive with nucleophiles such as amines, thiols, and alcohols. The molecule has an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) model system that has shown to react with the electron flow from the electrode to the solution of a compound. The EIS model system also showed that a conformational change in the molecule could result in light emission.
