The study on the mass spectroscopic behavior of the title compounds is based on AP-measurements, the investigation of deuterated derivatives, and the analysis of chain length effects. It is shown that, among other things, the stable [M-STol]+-ions produced by 9 homologs will not enter a cyclization reaction within 10-5 sec. The reactive [M-STol]+-species of S,S′-di-p-tolyl dithioadipate possess an abnormal fragmentation behavior (consecutive lass of CO and H2O), the details of which are elucidated by employment of 2H-labelled compounds and investigation of S,S′-di-p-tolyl 2,5-dimethyldithioadipate. Obviously, the sulfur of the thiol ester group seems to play a decisive role in this and other decomposition processes.

Heavy suspensions of Aerobacter aeroqenes were used to measure the adsorption of sodium benzoate and of p-hydroxybenzoic acid and its methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl esters. It was found that the adsorbability of the esters increased logarithmically with increasing chain length of the ester group. Surface activity also increased logarithmically with chain length. A close parallel was observed between the adsorption of the compounds and their antimicrobial effectiveness found by earlier workers.
