2-Thienyl disulfide（Cat No.:L010673）is an organosulfur compound composed of two 2-thienyl (thiophene) rings linked by a disulfide (–S–S–) bond. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis and materials science, often used in the preparation of sulfur-rich heterocycles, functionalized thiophenes, and conducting polymers. Its disulfide linkage offers redox activity, enabling reversible cleavage and formation under suitable conditions, which is useful in dynamic covalent chemistry and self-assembled monolayers. The aromatic thiophene rings contribute to electronic delocalization, making it valuable in the development of semiconducting materials and molecular electronics.
