Anwendungen & Verwendung

Beschreibung

Ethane thiol, commonly known as ethyl mercaptan, is a colorless gas or clear liquid with a distinct odor. It is an organosulfur compound with the formula CH3CH2SH. Abbreviated EtSH, it consists of an ethyl group (Et), CH3CH2, attached to a thiol group, SH. Its structure parallels that of ethanol, but with S instead of O. The odor of EtSH is infamous. Ethanethiol is more volatile than ethanol due to a diminished ability to engage in hydrogen bonding. Ethanethiol is toxic. It occurs naturally as a minor component of petroleum, and may be added to other wise odorless gaseous products such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to help warn of gas leaks. At these concentrations, ethanethiol is not harmful.

Verwenden

Ethanethiol is used as an intermediate inthe manufacture of insecticides, plastics, andantioxidants; and as an additive to natural gasto give odor. It occurs in illuminating gas andin petroleum distillates.

Herstellung & Synthese

synthetische

Ethanethiol is prepared by the reaction of ethylene with hydrogen sulfide over a catalyst. The various producers utilize different catalysts in this process. It is also be prepared commercially by the reaction of ethanol with hydrogen sulfide gas over an acidic solid catalyst, such as alumina. Ethanethiol was originally reported by Zeiss in 1834 . Zeise treated calcium ethyl sulfate with a suspension of barium sulfide saturated with hydrogen sulfide. He is credited with naming the C2H5S- group as mercaptum. Ethanethiol can also be prepared by a halide displacement reaction, where ethyl halide is reacted with aqueous sodium bisulfide. This conversion was demonstrated as early as 1840 by Henri Victor Regnault.

· May cause toxic effects if inhaled or absorbed through skin.
GefahrenübersichtIts toxicity in rats and mice is similar to that of butyl mercaptan. Acutely, it is about 1/5 as toxic as hydrogen sulfide. Human volunteers exposed to 1mg/m3 (0.5 ppm) experienced no symptoms, while those exposed to 10 mg/m3 (4 ppm) complained of mucous membrane irritation and fatigue. [ACGIH] Liver necrosis occurs in animals receiving sublethal doses. [HSDB] See THIOLS.

Incompatible materials should be isolated ... .Keep tightly closed and in a cool place.
ReinigungsverfahrenOdorous gases, such as methylmercaptans, mainly present a cosmetic problem. Thus a variety of methods and procedures, and also patents, are available with methods to absorb odors in scrubbers, by use of catalytic oxidizers or combined scrubber systems with oxidizing agents such as ozone or peroxides.Odors can be removed from circulating air with charcoal, by catalytic oxidation, or by destruction with a UV scrubber.If ethyl mercaptan is spilled or leaked, the following steps should be taken: 1. Remove all ignition sources. 2. Ventilate area of spill or leak. 3. For small quantities of liquids contaning ethyl mercaptan, absorb on paper towels and place in an appropriate container. Place towels in a safe place such as a fume hood for evaporation. Allow sufficient time for evaporation of the vapors so that the the hood ductwork is free from ethyl mercaptan vapors. Burn the paper in a suitable location away from combustible materials. 4. Large quantities of liquids containing ethyl mercaptan may be absorbed in vermiculite, dry sand, earth, or a similar material and placed in an appropriate container. Ethyl mercaptan should not be allowed to enter a confined space such as a sewer because of the possibility of an explosion. 5. Liquids containing ethyl mercaptan may be collected by vacuuming with an appropriate system. If a vacuum system is used, there should be no sources of ignition in the vicinity of the spill, and flashback prevention devices should be provided.Evacuate danger area! Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus.

UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 22(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 1.56X10+4 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that ethyl mercaptan is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of ethyl mercaptan from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 4.53X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(4). Ethyl mercaptan is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 529 mm Hg(5). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2005).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 22(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 1.56X10+4 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that ethyl mercaptan is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 4.53X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2.4 hours and 3.2 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 2.7(SRC), from its water solubility(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2005).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), ethyl mercaptan, which has a vapor pressure of 529 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase ethyl mercaptan is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 10 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 4.68X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Ethyl mercaptan does not absorb light at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight.
LebensmitteluntersuchungswerteEthyl mercaptan was qualitatively detected in the volatile components of raw chicken breast muscle(1). The compound has been identified as a beef volatile(2). Ethyl mercaptan occurs naturally in some vegetables such as cabbage(3).

Effluent ConcentrationsEthyl mercaptan concentrations of 0.25-1.01 mg/L were detected in the effluent of the Barceloneta waste treatment facility in Puerto Rico in Sept 1981(1)the treatment facility receives mostly industrial waste(1). An ethyl mercaptan concentration of 3.8 ppm was detected in the headspace gas of a wastewater effluent from an unidentified oil refinery(2). An ethyl mercaptan concentration of 72.5 ppm was detected in the headspace gas of a wastewater effluent from an unidentified waste treatment plant(2). A concentration of 21,000 ppm volume was reported in a study measuring gaseous trace compounds from an unspecified municipal landfill site(3).
Medical SurveillancePrior to placing a worker in a job with a potential for exposure to ethyl mercaptan, the physician should evaluate and document the worker's baseline health status with thorough medical, environmental, and occupational histories, a physical examination, and physiologic and laboratory tests appropriate for the anticipated occupational risk. These should concentrate on the function and integrity of the nervous and respiratory systems. Medical surveillance for respiratory disease should be conducted by using the principles and methods recommended by NIOSH and the American Thoracic Society (ATS). A preplacement medical evaluation is recommended in order to detect and assess preexisting or concurrent conditions which may be aggravated or result in increased risk when a worker is exposed to n-butyl mercaptan at or below the NIOSH REL. The examining physician should consider the probable frequency, intensity, and duration of exposure, as well as the nature and degree of the condition, in placing such a worker. Such conditions, which should not be regarded as absolute contraindications to job placement, include chronic diseases of the respiratory system.
Soil Adsorption/MobilityThe Koc of ethyl mercaptan is estimated as 22(SRC), using a water solubility of 1.56X10+4 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that ethyl mercaptan is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
