the prefix "thio" in organic chemistry denotes the existance of sulfur in the organic compound; therefore, 2,3a-Epithio-17a-methyletioallo cholan-17b-ol would presumably contain sulfur.
What is the urgency in which you need to know whether or not it contains sulfur?
By alergic to sulfur, I take it you mean elemental sulfur.
If you have an adverse reation to this, you would also be alergic to eggs, which contain a large amount of Methioamine, an essential sulfur-containing compound.
sinner... you make a interesting point... i consume eggs' (whites) and have yet (10 years) had a reaction
Antibiotic sulfonamides is what i had a reaction to... dang! wtf? i went back and researches it , again... Invalid Link Removed
i understand the difference now - also talked with my father-in-law, which is a retired chem prof. at georgia tech, and he advised me that the epi would be alright to take...
You have to understand the ambiguity of your question, though. It does not contain sulfur, but it contains sulfur-containing organic compounds. There is a huge difference between the two.
