Biological and Pharmaceutical Organosulfur Molecules

Journal Title: Journal of Medicinal and Chemical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Organosulfur molecules are prevalent in a broad spectrum of active biological, pharmaceutical and natural molecules. In this category, compounds containing carbon–sulfur bonds occupy a very special place in chemistry science. In this paper, we focused on biologically and pharmaceutically active molecules containing sulfides, disulfide, sulfoxid, sulfone, thiosulfinate, thioester and trithiocarbonate scaffolds. Methionine, Cystine, Pantoprazole, Dapsone, Allicin and Acetyl Co-A are several organosulfur molecules with well-known biological and pharmaceutical activities.
