2,2'-DITHIOBIS(5-NITROPYRIDINE) Usage And Synthesis

Uses

2,2′-Dithiobis(5-nitropyridine) was employed:

• as cysteine-activating reagent to study the NMR of G protein-coupled receptors
• in the deprotection assays for protected selenocysteine-containing peptides
• for deprotecting p-methoxybenzyl groups and acetamidomethyl groups from the side-chains of cysteine and selenocysteine
• to remove the p-methoxybenzyl protecting group from cysteine and selenocysteine side-chains

General Description

2,2′-Dithiobis(5-nitropyridine) is an aromatic disulphide.
