THIOMALIC ACID PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION CAS NO. 70-49-5 SYNONYMS Mercaptosuccinic Acid DL-Mercaptosuccinic acid Mercaptobutanedioic acid- DERIVATION CLASSIFICATION PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES PHYSICAL STATE white crystalline powder MELTING POINT 152 - 154 C PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES PHYSICAL STATE white crystalline powder MELTING POINT 152 - 154 C Thiomalic Acid is used as a brightening agent of metal plating. It is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of organic compounds especially as an corrosion inhibitor, soil fumigant, pharmaceuticals and electroplating agents. The first chemical contrast of thiols and sulfides with alcohols and ethers is acidity which is important in organic reactions. Thiols are stronger acids than relevant alcohols and phenols.
