Pyrithione is the common name of an organosulfur compound with molecular formula C 5 H 5 NOS, chosen as an abbreviation of pyridinethione, and found in the Persian shallot. [4] It exists as a pair of tautomers, the major form being the thione 1-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridinethione and the minor form being the thiol 2-mercaptopyridine N-oxide; it crystallises in the thione form.

The Barton decarboxylation is a radical reaction in which a carboxylic acid is converted to a thiohydroxamate ester (commonly referred to as a Barton ester). The product is then heated in the presence of a radical initiator and a suitable hydrogen donor to afford the decarboxylated product.
2-Bromopyridine reacts with butyllithium to give 2-lithiopyridine, [2] which is a versatile reagent. [3] Pyrithione can be prepared in a two-step synthesis from 2-bromopyridine by oxidation to the N-oxide with a suitable peracid followed by substitution using either sodium dithionite or sodium sulfide with sodium hydroxide to introduce the thiol functional group.
Pyrithione, the conjugate base of 2-mercaptopyridine-N-oxide, is a fungicide found in some shampoos. Oxidation 2-chloropyridine gives 2-chloropyridine-N-oxide. [5] The antihistamine pheniramine may be generated via the reaction of phenylacetonitrile with 2-chloropyridine in the presence of a base. [6]
Pyrithione can be prepared in a two-step synthesis from 2-bromopyridine by oxidation to the N-oxide with a suitable peracid followed by substitution using sodium dithionite to introduce the thiol functional group. [12]
The oxidation of pyridine can be achieved with a number of peracids including peracetic acid and perbenzoic acid. [3] Oxidation can also be effected by a modified Dakin reaction using a urea-hydrogen peroxide complex, [4] and sodium perborate [5] or, using methylrhenium trioxide (CH 3 ReO 3) as catalyst, with sodium percarbonate. [6]
Instead, they seemed to have better blood glucose management and fat oxidation which could, in theory, help with weight loss. However, there was no data to suggest that people actually lost weight.
Enones can be synthesized from tertiary allylic alcohols through the action of a variety of chromium(VI)-amine reagents, in a reaction known as the Babler oxidation. The reaction is driven by the formation of a more substituted double bond. (E)-Enones form in greater amounts than (Z) isomers because of chromium-mediated geometric isomerization ...
