High impact information on HSDB 2706

Parenterally administered beta-sulfo[1-14C]lactate is mostly excreted in the urine, but 12% is metabolized via beta-sulfopyruvate and cysteinesulfonate to 14CO2 and taurine. beta-Sulfopyruvate is not excreted, and only traces of sulfoacetate, perhaps formed by oxidative decarboxylation, are detected [1].
A third mechanism of desulfonation is suggested: the hydrolysis of sulfoacetate [2].
Preparation of sulfoacetate derivatives of cellulose by direct esterification [3].
