Abstract

The present invention describes a process for the synthesis of S-nitrosothiols and the subsequent incorporation of these compounds in hydrophilic macromolecular compositions. By the process described herein, the S-nitrosothiols are synthesized in a device (FIG. 2) in a first step from the S-nitrosation reaction of their respective precursor thiols (A), promoted by a mechanical action that puts the thiols in contact with the nitrous acid formed from nitrite anions in acidic medium (B), and in a second mechanical operation, the freshly formed S-nitrosothiols are incorporated in an application vehicle (C) based on hydrophilic macromolecular compositions that increases their thermal stability. Therefore, the process under consideration combine the pre-application synthesis of S-nitrosothiols with their subsequent incorporation in delivery vehicles, with provide a relative stabilization of the S-nitrosothiols for sufficient periods so that the formulations prepared by this process may be stored in a domestic refrigerator during its time of use in its several possible applications.
