Zhao, Xu-Yang,Janda, Kim D.
, p. 5437 - 5440 (1997)
A new traceless soluble polymeric linker and a corresponding alkylating strategy has been developed. Dimethyl malonate was alkylated with a variety of polymeric halides and these resulting polymer bound malonates underwent further alkylation with addition
CpMn(CO)3-catalyzed photoconversion of thiols into disulfides and dihydrogen
Tan, Kheng Yee Desmond,Kee, Jun Wei,Fan, Wai Yip
, p. 4459 - 4463 (2010)
The UV photolysis of CpMn(CO)3 with thiols at room temperature effected the following catalytic transformation: 2 RSH → R 2S2 + H2. This reaction is a cleaner and greener way toward making disulfides, as it produces dihydrogen as the only side-product. The manganese system exhibits high chemoselectivity as the transformation proceeds efficiently even in the presence of numerous functional groups. A manganese dicarbonyl complex, CpMn(CO)2RSH, and cyclopentadiene have also been detected using FTIR and NMR spectroscopic techniques, respectively. Based on our experimental data, a mechanism has been proposed to account for the catalysis.

We report on the synthesis of monodisperse, flower-like, liquid crystalline (LC) polymer particles by precipitation polymerization of a LC mixture consisting of benzoic acid-functionalized acrylates and disulfide-functionalized diacrylates. Introduction o

Coupled catalysis using a riboflavin-derived organocatalyst and molecular iodine successfully promoted the aerobic oxidation of thiols to disulfides under metal-free mild conditions. The activation of molecular oxygen occurred smoothly at room temperature through the transfer of electrons from the iodine catalyst to the biomimetic flavin catalyst, forming the basis for a green oxidative synthesis of disulfides from thiols.

Altered redox homeostasis as a hallmark of cancer cells is exploited by cancer cells for growth and survival. The thioredoxin (Trx), an important regulator in maintaining the intracellular redox homeostasis, is cumulatively recognized as a promising target for the development of anticancer drugs. Herein, we synthesized 72 disulfides and evaluated their inhibition for Trx and antitumor activity. First, we established an efficient and fast method to screen Trx inhibitors by using the probe NBL-SS that was developed by our group to detect Trx function in living cells. After an initial screening of the Trx inhibitory activity of these compounds, 8 compounds showed significant inhibition activity against Trx. We then evaluated the cytotoxicity of these 8 disulfides, compounds 68 and 69 displayed high cytotoxicity to HeLa cells, but less sensitive to normal cell lines. Next, we performed kinetic studies of both two disulfides, 68 had faster inhibition of Trx than 69. Further studies revealed that 68 led to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and eventually induced apoptosis of Hela cells via inhibiting Trx. The establishment of a method for screening Trx inhibitors and the discovery of 68 with remarkable Trx inhibition provide support for the development of anticancer candidates with Trx inhibition.

Paragraph 0020; 0048-0050, (2021/11/21)
The method comprises the following steps: adding a raw material and an oxidant to a reaction bottle containing a solvent; reacting 23W - 85W under the irradiation of 12 - 24h energy-saving lamps; and purifying the reaction product to obtain symmetrical disulfide bond-containing compounds. The raw material is mercaptan or thiophenol. The oxidizing agent is trichlorobromomethane, and the solvent is tetrahydrofuran. The method has the advantages of simple operation, high yield (70 - 90%), wide applicability, cheap and easily available raw materials, and provides a better way for the synthesis and production of symmetrical disulfide bond-containing compounds.
Substituted o-Aminophenols as Redox-Mediators in the Thiol Oxidation to Unsymmetrical Disulfides
Berberova, Nadezhda T.,Burmistrova, Daria A.,Galustyan, Andrey,Smolyaninov, Ivan V.
, (2021/06/17)
A number of substituted o-aminophenols has been investigated as redox mediators of the thiol oxidation to disulfides. The electrooxidation of o-aminophenols leads to the corresponding o-iminobenzoquinones. These compounds react with thiols in the solution with a formation of disulfides. It was established that the use of 4,6-di-tert-butyl-2-(tert-butylamino)phenol as a redox mediator can reduce the overpotential of the thiol oxidation by 0.2-1.4 V depending on the nature of the coupling thiols. The unsymmetrical disulfides with alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl substituents were obtained as the result of the indirect electrosynthesis.

The formation of S-S bonds has great significance and value in synthetic chemistry and bioscience. To pursue a sustainable approach for such a synthesis, an aerobic oxidative coupling method for the efficient preparation of organic disulfanes, using a low-toxic natural gallic acid as an organocatalyst, inexpensive MnCO3 as a cocatalyst, O2 as the terminal oxidant and water as the solvent, has been successfully developed. Such metal-organic cooperative catalytic protocol provided an access to various symmetrical and unsymmetrical disulfanes in up to 99% yield. Gram scale synthesis with practical convenience and low loading of catalysts further illustrates the practicability of our method.
