Abstract:
Silathiazolidine and metalladithioacetals (M = Si, Ge) have been prepared by the interaction of dialkyldichloro- or bis(diethylamino)dialkylsilanes and -germanes with 3-[N-(2- thioethyl)]amino-propanamide (WR-2529) and [1-thioethyl-2-(1-naphtylmethyl)]-2- imidazoline. The study of these compounds in the field of chemical radioprotection has shown a notable decrease in the toxicity and a rather large increase in the radioprotective activity of these new derivatives in comparison with the starting organic compounds.
