Application

Thiodiglycol (2,2′-Thiodiethanol, TDE) is used as a solvent and as a refractive index modifying component of mounting media for microscopy. Thiodiglycol may also be used as a charge modifier for procedures such as electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Thiodiglycol is used as a reference material in the evaluation of the degradation of sulfur mustard gas by bacteria.

A special group of substances that are very dangerous for the biosphere includes war gases such as mustard gas (bis(2-chloroethyl)sulphide). The influence of mustard gas hydrolysis products (MGHPs) on soil microbiota has been investigated. These substances bear numerous toxic effects

Sulfur mustard (HD), or bis(2-chloroethyl)sulfide, has several urinary metabolites that can be measured to assess human exposure. These metabolites include the simple hydrolysis product thiodiglycol (TDG) and its oxidative analogue, TDG-sulfoxide, as well as metabolites of the glutathione/b-lyase pathway 1,1'-sulfonylbis[2-(methyl-sulfinyl)ethane]
Hong Li et al.

Thiodiglycol (TDG) is both the precursor for chemical synthesis of mustard gas and the product of mustard gas hydrolysis. TDG can also react with intermediates of mustard gas degradation to form more toxic and/or persistent aggregates, or reverse the pathway
