General description

Thioacetamide is a thiocarboxamide used as a crosslinking agent for polymers, chemical reagents, and catalysts.

Thioacetamide is a thiocarbonyl compound. It undergoes deuterium exchange reaction with D2O to afford N-dideuterated thioacetamide. Infrared spectral investigations of thioacetamide and its deuterated derivative (N-dideuterated thioacetamide) have been reported.

Application

Thioacetamide may be used as a source of sulfur required for the synthesis of CdS nanoparticles in PVA (poly (vinyl alcohol)) solutions. It may be used in the preparation of sulfur precursor stock solution, which was required during the synthesis of CdS quantum dots in PVA-COOH (carboxylic acid functionalized poly(vinyl alcohol)) and EPC (Enzyme-Polymer Conjugate) solutions.
Thioacetamide may be used in the preparation of Sb(TA)2Cl3, a precursor for oxide-free stibnite. The addition of TA during the synthesis of visible-light activated titanium dioxide photocatalysts led to an increase in its photocatalytic activity.
