1,2-Ethanedithiol (EDT) (CAS: 540-63-6) is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor that resembles that of rotten cabbage. It is widely used as a building block in organic synthesis, and it is also an effective ligand for metal ions. 1,2-ethanedithiol if applied as a flavoring agent and it is available in a variety of animal foods, in cooked beef and chicken. 1,2-Ethanedithiol is used as a reagent in organic synthesis to convert carbonyl compounds to thioacetals (1,3-Dithiolanes).
