    S-nitrosothiols are thought to be important intermediates in nitric oxide signaling pathways. These compounds are unstable, in part, through their ability to donate NO. One model S-nitrosothiol, S-nitrosocysteine, is particularly unstable. Recently, it was proposed that this compound decomposed via intra and intermolecular transfer of the NO group from the sulfur to the nitrogen to form N-nitrosocysteine. This primary nitrosamine is expected to rapidly rearrange to ultimately form a reactive diazonium ion intermediate. To test this hypothesis, we demonstrated that thiirane-2-carboxylic acid is formed during the decomposition of S-nitrosocysteine at neutral pH. Acrylic acid was another product of this reaction. These results indicate that a small but significant amount of S-nitrosocysteine decomposes via S- to N-transnitrosation. The formation of a reactive intermediate in this process indicates the potential for this reaction to contribute to the toxicological properties of nitric oxide.
