Abstract
Two chain-shortened analogs of lipoic (1,2-dithiolane-3-pentanoic) acid, viz. bisnor-lipoic (1,2-dithiolane-3-propanoic) and tetranorlipoic (1,2-dithiolane-3-carboxylic) acids, have been chemically synthesized. The ir, uv, pmr, and mass spectroscopic properties and paper, thin-layer, and column chromatographic mobilities of lipoic acid and its analogs were investigated and are given.
