โฆ Synopsis
Rates for the reaction between L-S-nitrosocysteine and L-cysteine were found to be first order with respect to concentrations of the two reactants in the pH range of 4.85 -9.41. The second order rate constant was determined to be 3.10 x 10 .2 M~s ~ at pH = 7.4 at 37 'C. Spontaneous decomposition of L-Snitrosocysteine proceeded with the first order rate constant, 1.46 x 10 .5 s ~ under the same conditions.

A procedure for the simultaneous preparation of S-sulfo-L-cysteine and L-alanine 3-sulfinic acid is described. The method is based on the quantitative reaction between sulfite and S-(2amino-2-carboxyethylsulfonyl~L-cysteine. The yield was 95% for S-sulfo-Lcysteine and 9 1% for L-alanine 3-sullinic
