Application

4,4'-Dithiodibutyric acid is a versatile compound available as a beige to light brown fine crystalline powder. Its primary purpose is to serve as a key precursor in the synthesis of novel polythioesters (PTEs), expand its utility as a reactant in the production of chemically crosslinked epoxidized natural rubber, and provide an alternative monolayer for the development of protein chips. As an organic disulfide and dicarboxylic acid, it is formed through the oxidative dimerisation of 4-sulfanylbutanoic acid, making it functionally related to this compound and acting as a conjugate acid of 4,4'-disulfanyldibutanoate.
