Carbon Disulfide (CS2) is more than just a chemical; it's a versatile platform for innovative synthesis. Particularly, the 13C-labeled variant (CAS 30860-31-2) opens up sophisticated avenues in chemical research and industrial applications. As a key supplier of specialty chemicals from China, we are proud to facilitate advancements by providing access to compounds like Carbon Disulfide (13C), enabling chemists to explore new frontiers in molecular design.

The core of CS2's synthetic utility lies in its unique structure, S=C=S, which allows it to act as a source of a dithioformate moiety or as a carbon disulfide synthon. Its reactions with nucleophiles are well-documented and form the basis for many important organic transformations. For instance, reactions with amines yield dithiocarbamates, and with alkoxides, they produce xanthates. These reactions are fundamental in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials used in flotation processes for mineral extraction. Our role as a manufacturer in China ensures a steady supply of high-purity CS2, essential for reproducible and efficient synthetic routes.

In the pharmaceutical industry, the ability to synthesize complex intermediates with high specificity is critical. Carbon Disulfide serves as a key starting material for various heterocycles and sulfur-containing compounds that are integral parts of many drug molecules. The 13C isotope labeling further enhances its utility by allowing researchers to trace the fate of the carbon atom within complex reaction pathways, providing invaluable insights into reaction mechanisms. This precision is particularly beneficial when developing new APIs or optimizing existing synthetic processes, areas where our consistent supply of quality CS2 makes a significant difference.

As a solvent, CS2's non-polar nature and ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds, including sulfur, phosphorus, and rubber, make it suitable for specific extraction and reaction media. While its flammability and toxicity necessitate careful handling, its effectiveness in certain applications remains unparalleled. We emphasize the importance of consulting safety data sheets and implementing rigorous safety protocols, including proper ventilation and the use of appropriate PPE, to ensure its safe integration into laboratory and industrial settings. Our commitment to safety is as strong as our commitment to product quality.

The ongoing research into new applications for Carbon Disulfide, from advanced polymers to novel catalytic processes, underscores its enduring relevance in chemical synthesis. By providing reliable access to high-quality Carbon Disulfide (13C), we aim to empower researchers and manufacturers to push the boundaries of chemical innovation.
