Abstract:
We clarified for the first time the synthesis procedure and characterization of pantetheine trisulfide, a potential new drug. Pantetheine trisulfide is the first supersulfur compound with both thermal stability and water solubility. Its hygroscopicity and deliquescence promote the hydrolysis of trisulfide, but these limitations are overcome by powdered composites of pantetheine trisulfide with silica gel or lactose.
