Usage

General Description

Ethyl isopropyl sulfide is a chemical compound belonging to the class of organosulfur compounds. It is commonly used as a flavoring agent in the food industry, adding a garlic-like flavor to food products. It is also used as an odorant in natural gas, providing a distinctive smell to help detect gas leaks. Additionally, ethyl isopropyl sulfide has potential applications in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry due to its unique chemical properties. However, it is important to handle this compound with caution as it can be flammable and may cause irritation to the skin and eyes if not properly handled.
