Hyposulfite
Not to be confused with hydrosulfite, which is another name for the
dithionite anion (
S
2O2−
4).
Hyposulfite may refer to:
- The sulfoxylate anion (SO2−
2)
- The thiosulfate anion (S
2O2−
3)
- S
2O2−
2, a reported sulfur oxyanion. However salts containing S
2O2−
2 and HS
2O−
2 are not well characterized; they would be conjugate bases derived from the parent thiosulfurous acid (H
2S
2O
2), which is also of doubtful existence.
- Dithionite (S
2O2−
4) as in sodium dithionite.
