Sulfides, disulfide

Since the original cmde oils contain some sulfur compounds, the resulting products and gasolines also contain sulfur compounds, including hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans, sulfides, disulfides, and thiophenes. The processes used to sweeten, ie, desulfurize, the products depend on the type and amount of the sulfur compounds present and the specifications of the finished gasoline or other stocks. 

Bayer marketed PPS compounds in the United States under the trade name Tedur, but the company has exited the PPS business. PPS is also marketed in the United States by GE Plastics, whose source of neat resin is Tosoh Corporation of Japan. GE Plastics markets PPS under the trade name Supec PPS. Patent activity by Tennessee Eastman describes an alternative process for the production of poly(phenylene sulfide/disulfide), although samples of such product have not appeared as of early 1996. Both Phillips and Hoechst Celanese have aimounced plans to debotdeneck their existing U.S. faciUties in order to meet anticipated market growth. 

In contrast with irradiation of ACSO and PCSO, where volatile products were formed (sulfides, disulfides and alcohols), no volatile products were formed in the radiolysis of aqueous solutions of S-(cis- l-propenyl)-L-cysteine. Here the authors found that reactions of OH" radicals are responsible for the formation of propyl-1-propenyl sulfides (cis and trans).

In the case of the thiopurines the electrochemical processes do not appear to agree at all with the known biological oxidations. However, again in the case of 6-thiopurine not even a complete picture of the metabolites is available. The electrochemical data indicates that thiopurines are very readily oxidized to disulfides and hence to sulfinic or sulfonic acids. In view of well-known sulfide-disulfide transformations in biological situations (e.g., L-cy-steine to L-cystine), it is not unlikely that part of the metabolic degradation pathway for thiopurines might proceed via reactions of the sulfide moiety.

The l3C chemical shifts of methyl derivatives with sulfur substituents [e.g., SH, -S, -SCH3, -SSCH3, -SSSCHj, -S(0)CH3, -S02CH3, -S(CH3)2+, -SC(0)CH3, -SC(S)CH3, and -SC(S)SCH3] (130,131) and of vicinal and gem-inal bis-sulfides (290) have been reported. Freeman and co-workers have published similar studies on thiols, sulfides, disulfides, and sulfinic and sulfonic acid derivatives (131,132,433) and Tseng and Bowler (434), on thiocarbamates, their S-oxides and S,5-dioxides [R-X-C(0)-NR 2 with X = S, SO, S02]. 

Types of compounds are arranged according to the following system hydrocarbons and basic heterocycles hydroxy compounds and their ethers mercapto compounds, sulfides, disulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones, sulfenic, sulfinic and sulfonic acids and their derivatives amines, hydroxylamines, hydrazines, hydrazo and azo compounds carbonyl compounds and their functional derivatives carboxylic acids and their functional derivatives and organometallics. In each chapter, halogen, nitroso, nitro, diazo and azido compounds follow the parent compounds as their substitution derivatives. More detail is indicated in the table of contents. In polyfunctional derivatives reduction of a particular function is mentioned in the place of the highest functionality. Reduction of acrylic acid, for example, is described in the chapter on acids rather than functionalized ethylene, and reduction of ethyl acetoacetate is discussed in the chapter on esters rather than in the chapter on ketones.

Other Compounds. Other types of compounds formed under the proper conditions include, but are not limited to, N-alkylidenealkenylamines (35,37) and various aliphatic sulfur compounds (e.g., sulfides, disulfides, etc.) (33,35). 

There are many electrophiles which not only terminate living polymer chains but also produce end-group substitution. For example, macromolecules with hydroxyl, carboxyl, thiol, or chlorine termini can be prepared by reacting living polymers with such compounds as epoxides, aldehydes, ketones, carbon dioxide, anhydrides, cyclic sulfides, disulfides, or chlorine (15-23). However, primary and secondary amino-substituted polymers are not available by terminations with 1° or 2° amines because living polymers react with such functionalities (1.). Yet, tert-amines can be introduced to chain ends by use of -N-N-di-methylamino-benzaldehyde as the terminating agent (24). 

Sulfonic acids are prepared on a commercial scale by the sulfonalion of organic substrates using a variety of sulfonating agents, including sulfur trioxidc (diluted in air), sulfur trioxide (in sulfur dioxide), sulfuric acid, oleum (fuming sulfuric acid), chlorosulfuric acid, sulfamic add, trialkylamine-sulfur trioxide complexes, and sulfite ions. Other methods of sulfonic acid production, practiced on an industrial scale, include the oxidation of thiols, sulfide, disulfides, sulfoxides, sulfones, and sulfinic acids. See also Sulfonalion and Sulfation. 

In meats, of course, there are components which arise from the protein which cannot be present in the products from pure fat. Table III shows some of the sulfur compounds and aromatic compounds which are also found in irradiated meats. Many of these can be postulated as arising from direct bond cleavage of amino acid moieties. Benzene and toluene may come from phenylalanine and phenol and p-cresol from tyrosine. Recent studies have been directed to considering the origin of some of the compounds from proteinaceous substances. Some of the sulfides, disulfides, and mercaptans can derive directly from cysteine or methionine, but those containing more than two carbon atoms in a chain require more than a superficial explanation. In order to evaluate the contribution of the volatiles from the protein as well as the lipid constituents of meat, volatile components produced in various protein substances have also been analyzed.
