Product Information

• Name: 2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanethioamide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanethioamide is a phytohormone that belongs to the class of ethylene. It is involved in the regulation of many processes, including apical dominance, peduncle elongation, leaf senescence, and fruit ripening. 2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanethioamide is an active form of ethylene that binds to the receptor protein ETR1. This binding stimulates the synthesis of proteins that regulate these processes. It has been shown to be effective in treating flowers with inflorescence stems and fruits with peduncles. The transformation process may involve hydrocarbon molecules with long aliphatic chains.
