Photochemistry of the S-Nitroso Derivatives of Hexane-l-thiol and Hexane-l,6-dithiol

Abstract

S-NITROSOHEXANE-l-THIOL, CH₃(CH₂)₅SNO, and di-(S-nitroso)hexane-1,6-dithiol, ONS(CH₂)₆SNO, were prepared by the method reported by Saville¹. Their electronic spectra in hexane solution were measured and were found to be similar to the spectrum of S-nitrosotoluene-α-thiol₂. The relevant data are presented in Table 1.
