Description

Tert-Butylsulfinylchloride is a hydroxamic acid that has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of indole alkaloids, such as tryptamine and serotonin. This compound is enantiopure and chiral, which allows for the synthesis of a number of diastereomers. Tert-Butylsulfinylchloride can react with hydrogen peroxide to form reactive intermediates that are thought to have a mechanistic role in the inhibition of indole alkaloid biosynthesis. It also reacts with chloride under thermal conditions to produce an asymmetric synthesis. Tert-Butylsulfinylchloride can be used at temperatures up to 125 degrees Celsius without losing its anti-indole alkaloid properties, making it a good candidate for use in organic syntheses.
