Let’s face it, organic chemistry can seem difficult to learn. Especially from a beginner’s point of view. Like 148-18-5, Name is Sodium diethylcarbamodithioate. In a document, author is He, Yuli, introducing its new discovery. Application In Synthesis of Sodium diethylcarbamodithioate.
Thiol-water proton exchange of glutathione, cysteine, and N-acetylcysteine: Implications for CEST MRI
Amide-, amine-, and hydroxyl-water proton exchange can generate MRI contrast through chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). In this study, we show that thiol-water proton exchange can also generate quantifiable CEST effects under near-physiological conditions (pH = 7.2 and 37 degrees C) through the characterization of the pH dependence of thiol proton exchange in phosphate-buffered solutions of glutathione, cysteine, and N-acetylcysteine. The spontaneous, base-catalyzed, and buffer-catalyzed exchange contributions to the thiol exchange were analyzed. The thiol-water proton exchange of glutathione and cysteine was found to be too fast to generate a CEST effect around neutral pH due to significant base catalysis. The thiol-water proton exchange of N-acetylcysteine was found to be much slower, yet still in the fast-exchange regime with significant base and buffer catalysis, resulting in a 9.5% attenuation of the water signal at pH 7.2 in a slice-selective CEST NMR experiment. Furthermore, the N-acetylcysteine thiol CEST was also detectable in human serum albumin and agarose phantoms.
I hope this article can help some friends in scientific research. I am very proud of our efforts over the past few months and hope to 148-18-5 help many people in the next few years. Application In Synthesis of Sodium diethylcarbamodithioate.
