The synthesis of nephrotoxic conjugates of glutathione and cysteine

Abstract
New methods for the preparation and purification of nephrotoxic cysteine conjugates of chloro‐ and fluoro‐alkenes are described. The methods are applicable to a wide range of cysteine, N‐acetyl cysteine and glutathione conjugates and examples have been given of the synthesis and characterisation of two novel glutathione conjugates.
