Description

2-Thienyl disulfide (TDS) is a nitro group that has two sulfide groups. It is a biomolecular compound with a ligand or acceptor and has the ability to form disulfides. TDS can be synthesized by reacting thiocyanate with 2-thiophene to form the corresponding thiocyanate ester followed by hydrolysis. The yields of this reaction are dependent on the concentration of base used and the temperature at which it is conducted. TDS can also be synthesized from wittig reactions between an organolithium compound and furan, which produces an unstable intermediate that reacts with thiols (SH) to produce TDS. TDS is volatile and can be readily lost during handling because of its high reactivity, especially in the presence of light or moisture.
