Abstract


SO2 is emerging as a possible endogenous signaling molecule in mammals. In addition, SO2 has also shown pharmacological effects, presenting SO2 as a promising potential therapeutic agent. The past decade has witnessed steady advances in the development of small molecule-based SO2 prodrugs/donors with varied release mechanisms. Herein, we summarize various strategies employed for SO2 prodrug design. The remaining challenges and issues will also be discussed.
