Abstract
2-14C-N-Nitrosothiazolidine was synthesized with a chemical purity of 99.6%, a radio chemical purity of 99.4%, and an overall yield of 30.7%. Unlabelled N-nitroso-thiazolidine, synthesized using the same method, resulted in a purity of 99.85% by capillary GC and 99.7% by HPLC. Analysis of N-nitrosothiazolidine by GC was found to require a low injection port temperature of 160°C to prevent denitrosation in the injection port. During the nitrosation of thiazolidine, if the pH was reduced below 4 with hydrochloric acid, ring hydrolysis occurred, and chlorinated disulfide compounds formed.
