Isolable small-molecule cysteine sulfenic acid

Abstract

An isolable small-molecule cysteine sulfenic acid (Cys–SOH) protected by a molecular cradle was synthesized by direct oxidation of the corresponding cysteine thiol and its structure was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Studies on biologically relevant reactivity indicated its usefulness as a biorepresentative small-molecule sulfenic acid model.
