The 12 compounds studied containing the dithiocarbamate group, 5 of which are new, showed remarkably low acute toxicity in mice, with LD50 values generally higher than 1,000 mg/kg by the intraperitoneal route. Most noteworthy was 2 aminoethyldithiocarbamic acid, which protected 100% of mice against an LD99 of whole body γ-radiation in dose of 750 mg/kg, while the LD50 exceeds 1,500 mg/kg: certain higher homologues and N-methylated derivatives were also radioprotective and the series may merit further study.
