Inorganosulfur chemistry, aBunte salt is an archaic name for salts with the formulaR−S−SO−3Na+. They are also calledS-alkylthiosulfates orS-arylthiosulfates.[1] These compounds are typically derived fromalkylation on the pendantsulfur ofsodium thiosulfate:[2][3]
According toX-ray crystallography, they adopt the expected structure with tetrahedral sulfur(VI) atom, a sulfur-sulfur single bond, and three equivalent sulfur-oxygen bonds.[5]
