1-Phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiol is an effective inhibitor of aluminum corrosion in 1M HCl solution. 1-Phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiol was used in the synthesis of oxacyclic building blocks via highly stereoselective radical cyclization and olefin metathesis reactions. It was also used in the synthesis of metalated tetradecyl sulfone. It is also used in the spectrophotometric determination of Pt and Bi.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
