ABSTRACT
A class of novel thiol-activated H2S donors has been developed on the basis of the gem-dithiol template. These donors release H2S in the presence of cysteine or GSH in aqueous solutions as well as in cellular environments.

ABSTRACT
"Caged" gem-dithiol derivatives that release H2S upon light stimulation have been developed. This new class of H2S donors was proven, by various spectroscopic methods, to generate H2S in an aqueous/organic medium as well as in cell culture.
