Most emphasis has been placed on gaining information about dithiol compounds which form five- and six-membered heteroatom rings upon reaction with the organic arsenicals (I-4,7-9). The results obtained so far indicate that several factors influence the strength of the adduct formed. These include the electronic nature of the substituents on the antidote, solvent, pH of the media, and the size of the arsenical-antidote adduct ring formed. In order to further our understanding dealing with the structures, stabilities, and physical parameters for various arsenical-antidote adducts, we investigated several adducts in the gas phase using CNDO calculations. This allowed us to obtain some basic information about these species without the interference of solvent effects and other solution perturbations. For our calculations, we used MDAl as our arsenical and several candidate antidotes which contain vicinal dithiol groups as depicted. CH~ASCI~ MDA

Experimental Section The program used for these calculations was CND0/2-3R (IO), and the system was run on a Defiicon DS1-020 coprocessor board housed in a Gateway 386 P4AT compatible computer. The first approximation of bond angles and bond lengths for the arsenic and sulfur atoms was taken from the arsenical-antidote adduct crystal structure by Adams et al. (11). The calculations were performed as follows. The S-S midpoint was moved along the As-midpoint vector. Thus,the S-S distance was fixed, but the S-As-S angle as well as the As-S bond length were varied until the minimum energy was reached. The gas-phase enthalpies of reactions were determined by the equation: CH3AsC12 dithiol CH3As-dithiol 2HC1

Results and Discussion The reaction of the dithiols with the arsenical yields HC1 and the adduct. The adduct can be formed as two geometric isomers (2,2,8)which readily interconvert in acidic media (8).The trans isomer is favored over the cis isomer by -4/1. In this paper we will focus only on the more stable trans isomer. For simplicity, the antidotes DMSA and DMPS were calculated in their protonated forms, whereas in neutral aqueous media they exist as charged species. Figure 1 shows the optimal As-S bond distances that we obtained for the various MDA-antidote adducts. For all the adducts studied, the As-S bond distances ranged from 2.14 to 2.24 A. Hence, it would appear that the antidote functional group does not influence the As-S bond length in the gas phase. Furthermore, the Aa-S bond lengths and the S-As-S bond angle from our calculations do not differ appreciably from those obtained from the crystal structure; the bond distances differed by 10.1 A. Thus, the crystal structure and gas-phase results are comparable. Figure 2 shows the structure of the MDA-BAL adduct obtained from the calculations. The ring is in a puckered configuration with the methyl (on the arsenic) and hydroxymethyl groups in the trans/anti position. In the solution state, it is known that the trans/anti and trans/syn structures interconvert very quickly (12).

influence the solubility. It is noteworthy that the MDABAL has the lowest dipole moment whereas the aliphatic MDA-PDT adduct has a larger dipole moment. This results from the fact that the dipole moments are influenced by the lone pair of electrons on the arsenic atom. The aqueous solubilities are more likely to be determined by the nature of the substituent on the antidote. For instance, although the arsenical-PDT adduct has a large dipole moment, it is not soluble in water (9). On the other hand, the arsenical-BAL adduct (with the low dipole moment) is sparingly soluble in water (7). Table I1 gives the enthalpies for the reaction of MDA with the various dithiols. The reaction enthalpies are all endothermic except for the reaction of MDA with BAL which was found to be exothermic. A comparison of our gas-phase results with those of solution binding constant data for various arsenicalantidote adducts can only be qualitative because of the various solvent conditions used and because the substituents on the arsenical are different and the fact that the DMSA and DMPS were calculated in their nonionized forms. However, a general trend can be observed. The arsenical-BAL adduct is known to have a greater binding constant compared to all other adducts studied in this paper, with the exception of the arsenical-PDT adduct. For instance, we found that the relative binding constant for the arsenical-BAL adduct was 10 times greater than the arsenical-DMSA adduct (7) and -2 times greater than the arsenical-DTE adduct.2 The arsenical-PDT adduct binding studies were performed in nonaqueous conditions, and the increase in the relative binding constant for the PDT-arsenical adduct was attributed to small substituent effects (9). Our present gas-phase results suggest that there should not be significant differences in the stability of the adducts formed nor should the functional groups on the antidotes play a substantial role in influencing the formation of the adduct. Thus,the differences we do observe in the relative binding constants for these antidotes (7) and effects of substituents (9) on the relative binding constants must then be influenced by solvent and the charge on the adduct. Our calculations allowed us to view these adducts in a very simple form and limit the parameters that influence K. Dill, E. L. McGown, and V. L. Boyd, unpublished results.

stabilities and structures. Aside from BAL, all the other dithiol compounds behave similarly. It is interesting that BAL has been widely used for the treatment of arsenic poisoning in the U.S.for the past 50 years (13, 14).
