Benzothiazole is a sulfur containing bicyclic heteroaromatic chemical containing
suflur and nitrogen. It is a liquid at room temperature with an unpleasant odor.
This chemical can be prepared from the reaction of N,N-dimethylaniline and sulfur.
Despite its unpleasant odor, the chemical has been used as a food additive for
