Ethanethiol is known for having a strong, persistent and pungent garlic odor. It was listed as the smellest substance in the 2000 edition of Guinness World Records. When the air contains only one part of 50 billion ethyl mercaptan (0.00019mg/L), its odor can be smelled.

| Odor | Ethanethiol has a strongly disagreeable odor that humans can detect in minute concentrations. The threshold for human detection is as low as one part in 2.8 billion parts of air. Its odor resembles that of leeks, onions or cooked cabbage, but is quite distinct. Ethanethiol is intentionally added to butane and propane (see: LPG) to impart an easily noticed smell to these normally odorless fuels that pose the threat of fire, explosion, and asphyxiation. |

1. Pesticide intermediates, warning gas use Ethyl mercaptan is an important pesticide intermediate, used to synthesize organophosphorus pesticides phorate, foate, isopropyl, systemic phosphorus, methyl systemic phosphorus It can also be used as a reagent and gas odorant, liquid fuel additive, and used in the synthesis of medicine.
2. Ethyl mercaptan is an important pesticide intermediate used in the production of organophosphorus pesticides isoprophos, phorate, foxate, systemic phosphorus, methyl systemic phosphorus, etc. It can also be used to produce antibacterial agent 401. When the concentration of ethyl mercaptan in the air is only one part 50 billion in Chemicalbook, its odor can be detected, so it can be used as a warning agent for natural gas and petroleum gas, and an odorant for reagents (the odor is at a concentration of It can be smelled at 0.00019mg/L). Ethyl mercaptan can also be used in organic synthesis such as medicine.
