Abstract

The kinetics of the nucleophilic addition reactions of divinyl sulfone to amino groups of glycine and model proteins was studied in aqueous solution at 30°C. The rate constants for glycine, bovine serum albumin, and α1-casein were (4.84 ± 0.58) × 10–1, (2.97 ± 0.31) × 10–2, and (2.38 ± 0.49) × 10–2 M–1 s–1, respectively. Divinyl sulfone was proposed as a crosslinking reagent for the qualitative detection of protein association in solution. The crosslinking capacity of divinyl sulfone was compared to that of 1,3,5-triacryloylhexahydro-s-triazine.
