Disease relevance of p-Dithiane

Genotoxicity of 1,3-dithiane and 1,4-dithiane in the CHO/SCE assay and the Salmonella/microsomal test [1].
Subchronic toxicity study of 1,4-dithiane in the rat [2].

High impact information on p-Dithiane

The distonic radical ion .CH2CH2SCH2+ (1+.), generated by dissociative electron ionization of 1,4-dithiane or 1,4-thioxane, is identified in the gas phase by its collisionally activated dissociation (CAD), neutralization -reionization (+NR+) and charge-reversal (+CR-) mass spectra [3].
This study reports a novel form of toxicity (deposition of anisotrophic crystals in the olfactory mucosa) from 1,4-dithiane administered by gavage [2].

Associations of p-Dithiane with other chemical compounds

1,3-Dithiane and 1,4-dithiane are the sulfur-containing Maillard reaction products (MRPs) which have been found in boiled beef extracts [1].
