In organosulfur chemistry, a Bunte salt is an archaic name for salts with the formula RSSO3–Na+. They are also called S-alkylthiosulfates or S-arylthiosulfates. [1] These compounds are typically derived from alkylation on the pendant sulfur of sodium thiosulfate: [2] [3]
They have been used as intermediates in the synthesis of thiols. [4] They are also used to generate unsymmetrical disulfides:
According to X-ray crystallography, they adopt the expected structure with tetrahedral sulfur(VI) atom, a sulfur-sulfur single bond, and three equivalent sulfur-oxygen bonds. [5]
