Formation of octacalcium phosphate with incorporated dicarboxylate ions containing disulfide bonds

Dalton Trans. 2023 Nov 21;52(45):16586-16590. doi: 10.1039/d3dt02462h.

Abstract

Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is a layered compound capable of incorporating carboxylate ions within its interlayer structure. In this study, we successfully synthesised OCP with incorporated 3,3'-dithiodipropionate ions. Our finding is beneficial for the development of novel OCP-based materials with dynamic properties derived from disulfide bonds.
