https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunte%20salt
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. These compounds are typically derived from alkylation on the pendant sulfur of sodium thiosulfate: RX + Na2S2O3 → Na[O3S2R] + NaX They have been used ...
