Sensitivity Protection - SH
« on: April 06, 2025, 06:47:46 PM »
I'm looking for a simple way to produce Sodium Cystate the sodium salt of L-Cystene without damaging the structure.

Which reactants do you want to use.
Cystene + sodium hydrogencarbonate would be an option.

With the bicarbonate, how can I non invasively reconstitute to the Cystene form from the Cysteine disulfide form of the salt preserving the l chirality?
Can I just protect the thiol group from the start with say a closed ring saccharide and simply add sodium hydroxide ~ 0.5 M @17°C?
This seems to be a very "sensitive" structure.

I am confused regarding the picture of sucrose.  How does this relate?

As a protecting group for the addition of the sodium ion to the carboxylate for the rest of the structure.
