|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Not applicable. 4,5-Dichloro-3H-1,2-dithiol-3-one is not a bioactive compound and is not evaluated in standard biological assays for pharmacological activity. Its "activity" is chemical, serving as a precursor in the synthesis of thiols and other sulfur-containing compounds via ring-opening reactions with nucleophiles such as amines or thiols. It is not used as a positive control in any cited bioassays.
|
| ln Vivo |
Not applicable. The compound is not administered in animal models as a therapeutic agent. It is a chemical building block and research chemical. Any in vivo applications would be for the final molecules synthesized using this intermediate, not for the intermediate itself.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. The compound is a chemical intermediate and is not used in cell-free binding assays. It is characterized by standard analytical methods such as HPLC, NMR, and GC to determine purity and identity. Its reactivity can be studied by treating it with nucleophiles (e.g., benzylamine) and monitoring product formation by TLC or HPLC.
|
| Cell Assay |
Not applicable. 4,5-Dichloro-3H-1,2-dithiol-3-one is not tested in cell-based assays because it is a synthetic intermediate. If tested, it may exhibit cytotoxicity due to the presence of the dithiolone ring and chlorine atoms, but it is not a pharmacological tool. It is not intended for use in cell culture experiments.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Not applicable. The compound is not used in animal studies as a test article. It is a chemical intermediate. Any in vivo applications would be for the final molecules synthesized using this building block, not for the intermediate itself.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Not applicable. 4,5-Dichloro-3H-1,2-dithiol-3-one is a synthetic building block, not an active pharmaceutical ingredient. Its own ADME properties are not relevant. It is stored as a powder at -20degC in a dry, dark place.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
This compound is a dithiolone derivative and may be an irritant. The compound contains two chlorine atoms and a reactive dithiolone ring. Standard laboratory safety precautions for handling sulfur-containing heterocycles should be followed, including working in a fume hood and wearing appropriate PPE (gloves, safety goggles, lab coat). Avoid dust inhalation.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
