111-54-6 Usage
Definition
ChEBI: A dithiocarbamic acid resulting from the formal addition of a molecule of carbon disulfide to each amino group of ethylenediamine.
General Description
Solid. Very unstable material, used as a pesticide and fungicide.
Air & Water Reactions
Thio and dithiocarbamates slowly decompose in aqueous solution to form carbon disulfide and methylamine or other amines. Such decompositions are accelerated by acids.
Reactivity Profile
ETHYLENEBISDITHIOCARBAMIC ACID, SALTS & ESTERS are dithiocarbamic acid derivatives. Flammable gases are generated by the combination of thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates with aldehydes, nitrides, and hydrides. Thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates are incompatible with acids, peroxides, and acid halides.
Health Hazard
Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.
Fire Hazard
Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Some may be transported hot.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 111-54-6 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 1,1 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 111-54:
(5*1)+(4*1)+(3*1)+(2*5)+(1*4)=26
26 % 10 = 6
So 111-54-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

The 12 compounds studied containing the dithiocarbamate group, 5 of which are new, showed remarkably low acute toxicity in mice, with LD50 values generally higher than 1,000 mg/kg by the intraperitoneal route. Most noteworthy was 2 aminoethyldithiocarbamic acid, which protected 100% of mice against an LD99 of whole body γ-radiation in dose of 750 mg/kg, while the LD50 exceeds 1,500 mg/kg: certain higher homologues and N-methylated derivatives were also radioprotective and the series may merit further study.
