12-Propanedithiol sometimes called 12-dimercaptopropane is a thiol with the formula HSCH2CH(SH)CH3. This colorless intensely odorous liquid is the simplest chiral dithiol. Related dithiols include 12-ethanedithiol 23-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid and 13-propanedithiol. It is generated by the addition of H2S to the related episulfide CH3CHCH2S.Refractive index = 1.531-1.541
