S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) remain one of the most popular classes of NO-donating compounds due to their ability to release nitric oxide (NO) under non-enzymatic means whilst producing an inert disulphide by-product. However, alligning these compounds to the different biological fields of NO research has proved to be problematic due to the inherent instability of such compounds under a variety of conditions including heat, light and the presence of copper ions. 1,3,2-Oxathiazolylium-5-olates (OZOs) represent an interesting subclass of S-nitrosothiols that lock the –SNO moiety into a five membered heterocyclic ring in an attempt to improve the compound's overall stability. The synthesis of a novel series of halogen-containing OZOs was comprehensively studied resulting in a seven-step route and overall yields ranging between 21 and 37%. The photochemical stability of these compounds was assessed to determine if S-nitrosothiols locked within these mesoionic ring systems can offer greater stability and thereby release NO in a more controllable fashion than their non-cyclic counterparts.

S-Nitrosothiols (RSNOs) are important exogenous and endogenous sources of nitric oxide (NO) in biological systems. A series of 4-aryl-1,3,2- oxathiazolylium-5-olates derivatives with varying aryl para-substituents (-CF3, -H, -Cl, and -OCH3) were synthesized. These compounds were found to release NO under acidic condition (pH = 5). The decomposition pathway of the aryloxathiazolyliumolates proceeded via an acid-catalyzed ring-opening mechanism after which NO was released and an S-centered radical was generated. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin trapping studies were performed to detect NO and the S-centered radical using the spin traps of iron(II) N-methyl-D-glucamine dithiocarbamate [(MGD) 2-FeII] and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO). Also, EPR spin trapping and UV-vis spectrophotometry were used to analyze the effect of aryl para substitution on the NO-releasing property of aryloxathiazolyliumolates. The results showed that the presence of an electron-withdrawing substituent such as -CF3 enhanced the NO-releasing capability of the aryloxathiazolyliumolates, whereas an electron-donating substituent like methoxy (-OCH3) diminished it. Computational studies using density functional theory (DFT) at the PCM/B3LYP/6-31+G*7/B3LYP/6-31G* level were used to rationalize the experimental observations. The aryloxathiazolyliumolates diminished susceptibility to reduction by ascorbate or gluthathione, and their capacity to cause vasodilation as compared to other S-nitrosothiols suggests potential application in biological systems.
