Abstract:Enantiomers of isoprothiolane sulfoxide (diisopropyl 1-oxo-l, 3-dithiolan-2-ylidenemalonate) were resolved and separately analyzed both by chiral HPLC. The specific rotation was around + and-112° for each antipode. Isoprothiolane (diisopropyl l, 3-dithiolan-2ylidenemalonate) was easily oxidized by a rat liver 9000 g supernatant to produce its racemic sulfoxide, in which NADPH was an effective cofactor but NADH was not. The liver microsomes, however, preferentially formed its (+)-isomer in an enantiomeric exces… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
