2,4,4-Trimethyl-2-pentanethiol is a clear, colorless
liquid.
tert-Octyl Mercaptan is used as a surfactant in the activity of carbon-supported platinum nanoparticles toward methanol oxidation reaction.
Poison by ingestion.
Irritating to eyes. A flammable liquid when
exposed to heat, flame, or oxidizers. To
fight fire, use foam, alcohol foam. When
heated to decomposition it emits very toxic
fumes of SOx.
A mercaptan, sulfhydral, thioalcohol,
and organic sulfide. Used as a lubricant additive and in
polymer modification.

heat, sparks, or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixture
with air. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates,
peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine,
fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep
away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids,
oxoacids, and epoxides. Attacks many metals and rubber.
Use a licensed professional
waste disposal service to dispose of this material. Dissolve
