This model provides hands-on practice of separating a mixture of substances that are often encountered in chemical synthesis and chemical extraction processes. The ions in the mixture are separated by selective precipitation, selective dissolution, and characteristic reactions enforced based on common ion effects, pH effect, coordination complex formation, and redox reactions.

The reaction is somewhat unusual in that the biological leaving group in this S N 2 process is the triphosphate ion rather than the more frequently seen diphosphate ion (Section 11.6).

In its oxidized form, glutathione exists as a dimer of two molecules linked by a disulfide group, and is abbreviated 'GSSG'. A new disulfide in a protein forms via a 'disulfide exchange' reaction with GSSG, a process that can be described as a combination of two S N 2-like attacks.
