18. The pyridyl disulfide (4) displayed only limited stability. Use of this disulfide also prevented inhibition of cross-linking at low pH; its reactivity increased at pH < 7 as a result of protonation of the pyridine nitrogen.
19. For the thiol-disulfide interchange reaction, it is assumed that Δlog k/ΔpH ∼1 in the pH range of 4.5-7.5.

46. Because absolute rates of disulfide trapping depend not only on encounter frequency but also on chemical parameters such as leaving group stability, pH, and the presence of a catalyst, the analysis is restricted to relative rates within a given system.
