It is well known that hydroxyl radical (OH) can be largely produced either through the classic iron-mediated inorganic-Fenton system or our recently discovered haloquinones/HO organic-Fenton-like system, but rarely produced via thiol compounds. Here, unexpectedly, we found that OH can be unequivocally generated by incubation of HO and mercaptotriazole (MTZ), a typical heterocyclic thiol which has been used as an environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitor for mild steel. By the complementary applications of HPLC-MS and oxygen-18 isotope-labeling method, MTZ-derived sulfenic (MTZ-SOH) and sulfinic acids were detected and identified as transient intermediates, and sulfonic acid as final products.

Mechanistic studies of thiol reactivity can be challenging because electrophilic reaction intermediates, such as sulfenic acids (RSOH) and sulfenyl chlorides (RSCl), are generally too reactive to be observed directly. Herein we report the design and synthesis of a sterically-encumbered fluorinated triptycene thiol which enables direct observation of reaction intermediates in aqueous buffer by F NMR, as demonstrated in reactions with hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorous acid. Reactions with HO resulted in the formation of a persistent RSOH species, which was subsequently converted to a sulfinic acid (RSOH) and then a sulfonic acid (RSOH), while RSCl was found to be the intermediate in reactions with HOCl.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of mortality in humans, and oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in disease progression. This phenomenon typically arises from weakening of the cellular antioxidant system or excessive accumulation of peroxides. This review focuses on a specialized form of oxidative stress-disulfide stress-which is triggered by an imbalance in the glutaredoxin and thioredoxin antioxidant systems within the cell, leading to the accumulation of disulfide bonds.

Radiotherapy (RT)-induced vaccination greatly promotes the development of personalized cancer vaccines owing to the massive release of antigens initiated by tumor-localized RT eliciting the tumor-specific immune response. However, its broad application in cancer treatment is seriously impeded by poor antigen cross-presentation, low response rate, and short duration of efficacy. Herein, the tumor-antigen-capturing nanosystem dAuNPs@CpG consisting of gold nanoparticles, 3,5-cyclohexanedione (CHD), and immunoadjuvant CpG were fabricated to enhance RT-induced vaccination.

Volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) significantly influence food flavor and garner considerable attention in flavor research due to their low sensory thresholds, diverse odor attributes, and high reactivity. Extensive research studies have explored VSC formation through thermal processes such as the Maillard reaction, thermal pyrolysis, oxidation, and enzymatic reactions. However, understanding of the specific reaction mechanisms and processes remains limited.
