General description

Phenylacetyl disulphide serves as a sulfurization reagent during the preparation of phosphates.Phenyl acetyl disulfide can be synthesized by the reaction of phenyl benzenethiolsulfonate with thioacetic acid in the presence of triethylamine.

Application

Phenylacetyl disulfide (PADS) may be used as a sulphur transfer agent during the synthesis of phosphorothioate oligodeoxyribonucleotides.

The synthesis of 1-(2-nitrophenylethyl) caged O-phosphorothioylserine, -threonine and -tyrosine derivatives is reported. These amino acid building blocks can be directly incorporated into peptides by Fmoc-based solid phase synthesis as their pentafluorophenyl esters or as symmetric anhydrides. Upon irradiation with UV
