The bulbous root garlic (Allium sativum) with a strong taste and pungent odor is used widely in culinary preparations and folk medicine. Silver and gold nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized using this ingredient have also shown medicinal and therapeutic potency. Garlic contains organosulfur compounds, such as diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS) and diallyl trisulfide (DATS). These compounds are of crucial significance as anticancer drugs. Reported here is a synthesis of a series of DATS with varying substituents and plausible application as capping as well as reducing agent to synthesize gold nanoparticles (TS-GNPs). In the process, it was discovered that among the selected DATs, only 1,3-di(but-1-ene)trisulfane could serve the purpose because of structural reasons. The reason for this intriguing selectivity has been investigated in detail using the experimental findings and theoretical calculations of the frontier molecular orbitals (FMO). Graphic abstract: Synthesis of a series of medicinally important symmetrical organic trisulfides as a structural analogue of diallyl trisulfides (DATS) in an attempt to construct organosulfur compound induced gold nanoparticles (GNPs), has been reported. Only 1,3-Di(but-1-ene)trisulfane in the lot is capable of reducing the chloroauric acid to synthesize the protected GNPs.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Temperature-and solvent-induced selective synthesis of trisulfides and disulfides is demonstrated. A remarkable selectivity was achieved using Na2S as a sulfur-Transfer agent under mild, greener, catalyst-free and additive-free conditions. This study reveals trisulfides as a better model than disulfides in general for a sustained release of H2S and potent anti-cancer activities.

The invention provides a process for forming diallyl disulfide. The process comprises A) mixing together sulfur and at least one alkali metal sulfide in an initial aqueous medium in which at least about 90 volume percent of said aqueous medium is water, such that a disulfide source is formed in said initial aqueous medium thereby forming a disulfide source-conatining aqueous medium, and B) mixing together at least a portion of said disulfide source-containing aqueous medium and at lease one allyl halide selected from allyl cloride, allyl bromide, or a mixture of any two or all three of these, in the absence of any additional solvent other than water, at a temperature in the range of about 40?C to about 60?C, such that diallyl disulfide is formed.
