Biological H2S / COS Donation by Thiocarbamates

1. Technology Overview The invention focuses on biological hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and carbonyl sulfide (COS) donation using thiocarbamates. These compounds release COS, which is then converted to H₂S by hydrolysis or metabolism by carbonic anhydrase. The technology is currently in the development stage, with promising cross-industry applications in...

Compounds for Thiol-Triggered COS and/or H2S Release and Methods of Making and Using the Same

1. Technology Overview The invention focuses on thiol-triggered sulfenyl thiocarbonates and sulfenyl thiocarbamates that release carbonyl sulfide (COS) and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) in the presence of biologically relevant thiols. These compounds offer a concomitant fluorescence response, providing optical indication of COS and H₂S release. The technology...
