2-imidazolethiones protect ascorbic acid from oxidation induced by copper
1990
Smith, R.C. | Gore, J.Z.
The oxidation of ascorbic acid to dehydroascorbic acid was accelerated by metal ions such as copper. This stimulation of ascorbate oxidation was inhibited by the addition of 2-imidazolethiones and other sulfhydryl-containing compounds, but not by 2-imidazolones or phenytoin. Although the 2-imidazolethiones interacted with copper, as shown by a decrease in the ultraviolet absorbance of the compounds, the product formed still protected ascorbate from oxidation. The 2-imidazolethiones are proposed to complex copper through their free -SH groups.
