General description

6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid is reported as sulphydryl reagent. 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid is reported to react with thiols, to afford a disulfide and 6-mercaptonicotinic acid. Interaction of 6,6′-dithiodinicotinic acid with the homogenates of Ehrlich ascites cells has been reported.
