Preparation of Ethyl sulfide: it is prepared by reaction of crude ethylsulfide. Firstly, mercury chloride is added to ethanol, then crude ethylsulfide is put into the mixture. Secondly, generated complex is refined by recrystallization and added to hydrochloric acid. At last, product is obtained by heating, washing and drying.

Uses of Ethyl sulfide: it is used to produce triethylsulfoniuim ethylsulfate by reaction with sulfuric acid diethyl ester. The reaction occurs with solvent acetonitrile and other condition of heating for 2.5 hours. The yield is about 85%. Besides, it is also used as a solvent for anhydrous minerals and in plating baths for gold and silver.

When you are using this chemical, please be cautious about it. As a chemical, it is irritating to skin and highly flammable. During using it, wear suitable protective clothing. After using it, keep container in a well-ventilated place away from sources of ignition. If contact with eyes accidently, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
