Caged -dithiols have been developed as the donors of reactive sulfur species (RSS), but the chemistry of free -dithiols as RSS donors has not been well understood. Herein, we report the study of a free -dithiol, 1,3-diphenylpropane-2,2-dithiol, as the precursor for several RSS. It releases HS under physiological conditions and can be converted to a mono--nitrosothiol, which serves as a NO donor. Furthermore, it can be converted to 3,3-dibenzyldithiirane, which is an active sulfur transfer reagent and can induce -persulfidation.
笼状二硫醇已被开发作为活性硫物种(RSS)的供体,但游离二硫醇作为RSS供体的化学性质尚未得到充分理解。在此,我们报道了对游离二硫醇1,3 - 二苯基丙烷 - 2,2 - 二硫醇作为几种RSS前体的研究。它在生理条件下释放HS,并且可以转化为一种亚硝基硫醇,作为NO供体。此外,它可以转化为3,3 - 二苄基二硫杂环丙烷,这是一种活性硫转移试剂,可诱导过硫化作用。
