General Description

"S-(1,2-dicarboxyethyl)cysteine" is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cysteine and derivatives. These are compounds containing cysteine or a derivative thereof resulting from a reaction of cysteine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. The compound is typically involved in biological and biochemical processes. It is soluble in water which makes it potentially useful in some biochemical applications and research. It has the molecular formula C6H9NO4S, and may also be known by its IUPAC name, S-[2-(carboxymethylamino)ethyl] thioglycolic acid.

Oxidation of Thiols and Disulphides with Ammoniumyl Radical-cation, +.NH3: an E.S.R. Investigation

E.s.r. spectroscopy has been employed to demonstrate that the reaction of +.NH3 (from TiIII and +NH3OH) with thiols (RSH) proceeds via the initial formation of thiyl radicals (RS.); these react further to give disulphides as well as oxygen-containing radicals RSO. and RSO2., formed by a series of one-electron oxidation reactions, and both SO2-. and SO3-. (which arise via sulphur dioxide formed in the decomposition of RSO2.).Reaction with disulphides, which leads to the detection of sulphinyl radicals and disulphide-conjugated radicals, is thought to involve both radical-cations (RSSR+.) and ammoniumyl adducts .(N+H3)SR> whose further reactions have been described.
