The disulphide corresponding to the above thiol has been synthesised, but all attempts to reduce this substance to the thiol were unsuccessful, although an alternative procedure via a thiomercury intermediate, enabled the thiol to be generated in situ , the properties of this thiol, however, are not in accord with those previously described for a putative free intermediate in penicillin biosynthesis. 1
