title: 15N NMR and electronic properties of S-nitrosothiols.
abstract: Investigation of the 15N NMR of S-nitrosothiols showed that primary and tertiary RSNOs have distinct 15N chemical shifts around 730 and 790 ppm, respectively. Using 15N NMR technique, the equilibrium constant of NO transfer between SNAP and GSH was found to be 0.74. For primary RSNOs, linear relationships exist among 15N NMR chemical shifts, reduction potentials, and the pK(a)s of their parent thiols.
