Disulfides are compounds that have S¬ S bonds, like peroxides have O¬ O bonds. Thiols are organic compounds that have the general formula R¬ SH, where R is a generic hydrocarbon. The SH- ion is the sulfur counterpart of hydroxide, OH-. Two thiols can react to make a disulfide, R¬ S¬ S¬ R. If you wanted to convert a disulfide to two thiols, should you add a reducing agent or oxidizing agent to the solution?
Fill in the left side of this equilibrium constant equation for the reaction of diethylmethylamine (C,H13N), a weak base, with water.
Ü - K,
