Sulphides, 5-nitrosation

There is indirect kinetic evidence that S-nitrosation of a sulphide occurs70, followed by a S to IV rearrangement of the nitroso group, leading finally to deamination (equation 31). The evidence is based on the much higher reaction rate when the sulphur atom is present. 

Sulphides should be capable of bringing about catalysis of nitrosation if the S-NO...
