A series of thiosulfonates have been prepared and tested against Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus. In general, the thiosulfonates are moderate antifungal agents - more potent than corresponding inactive disulfides and less potent than corresponding very active fungitoxic disulfides. A pair of thiosulfonates show high selectivity, each killing only one kind of fungus. CSIRO 2000.

This invention is directed to novel and known stufur containing compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof that have utility as antifungals and as antiproliferative agents against mammalian cells, in particular cancer cells and most particularly leukemia-derived cells. The invention provides a method for synthesizing certain of the sulfur containing compounds that is more efficient than previously known methods.
