A straightforward strategy involving photocatalysis has been established for accessing trisulfide dioxides from readily achieved symmetrical tetrasulfides. Stern-Volmer analysis and radical quenching experiments demonstrated the occurrence of a single electron transfer between the photocatalyst and sulfinic acid. Bioactive molecules such as the antihypertensive drug captopril, allicin derivatives, amino acids and terpenes were efficiently and reversibly linked through sulfur-sulfur covalent bonds. Furthermore, flow-setup syntheses of trisulfide dioxides were successfully achieved on the gram scale, indicating the great potential of the developed protocol for practical industrial applications.

Page/Page column 10-12, (2008/12/05)
A method of producing polysulfides comprising the step of adding elemental sulphur to an allicin-containing plant extract. In preferred embodiments, the plant extract is mechanically treated members of the genus Allium, especially garlic. In further preferred aspects of the invention, the plant extract and sulphur mixture is heated, and the pH is controlled to allow manipulation of the polysulfide chain length. The addition of organic bases, containing nitrogen lone pairs, allows further control of polysulfide chain length.
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING DIALLYL DISULFIDE

Page/Page column 12-16, (2010/10/20)
The invention provides a process for forming diallyl disulfide. The process comprises A) mixing together sulfur and at least one alkali metal sulfide in an initial aqueous medium in which at least about 90 volume percent of said aqueous medium is water, such that a disulfide source is formed in said initial aqueous medium thereby forming a disulfide source-conatining aqueous medium, and B) mixing together at least a portion of said disulfide source-containing aqueous medium and at lease one allyl halide selected from allyl cloride, allyl bromide, or a mixture of any two or all three of these, in the absence of any additional solvent other than water, at a temperature in the range of about 40?C to about 60?C, such that diallyl disulfide is formed.

At a working potential of about +2.0 V (vs SCE) the carbon-sulfur electrode is a source of the electrogenerated cation S2+. In organic media, this electrophile reacts with thiols (or thiolates) to give a mixture of polysulfides of which the trisulfide is the main product. The reaction between electrogenerated Sy2- and alkyl halides is less selective. Elsevier,.
