Disulfur oxide

Sulfur reacts with sulfur dioxide in an electric discharge to form disulfur-oxide, S2O. 

Disulfuroxide (S=S 3) and disulfurdioxide (0=S=S=0) are unstable, and they polymerize to give polysulfur oxides. In disulfuroxide, the S=S bond is weaker and more polarized than the S=0 bond . Disulfur oxide is conveniently generated in the thermolysis of 4,5-diphenyl-3,6-dihydro-1,2-dithiin-l-oxide 2. ... 

Chloroethyldisulfides are obtained by electrophilic attack on the sulfur atom of thiiranes by sulfenyl halides (Scheme 39). Sulfur dichloride and disulfur dichloride react similarly to give more sulfur-rich derivatives di- and tri-sulfenyl halides, and tri- and tetra-sulfides (Scheme 42). A 1 1 ratio of sulfur halide to thiirane gives the di- or tri-sulfenyl halide a 2 1 ratio the tri- or tetra-sulfide. Thiirane 1-oxides are cleaved by sulfenyl halides to thiolsulfinates (Scheme 43) (74JAP7440461).

Within the sulfur sub-group, there are two main types of oxides, the dioxides X 02 (X = S, Se, Te, Po) and the trioxides X Os (X = S, Se, Te). In addition, sulfur also forms disulfur monoxide, S2O. Transient XO species are known in the gaseous phase for S, Se, and Te. Polonium forms a black monoxide PoO. 

The first examples of mononuclear disulfur and diselenium complexes of platinum have been described.330 Reduction of the sterically hindered complex trans- PtC 2( P M e2A r)2] (Ar = 2,4, 6-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl, 2,6-bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)-methyl]-4-[tris(trimethylsilyl) methyl]-phenyl) with lithium naphthalide in THF solution affords the platinum(0) species [Pt(PMe2Ar)2]. Oxidative addition of elemental sulfur or selenium yields the dichalcogenatoplatinum(II) complexes of the type [PtE2(PMe2Ar)2] (E = S, Se) containing a unique PtE2 ring system. The complexes are stable to air in the solid state, but slowly decompose in solution after several days at room temperature. 

The bromate is a powerful oxidant, and unstable mixtures with sulfur ignite at 73-75°C, and with disulfur dibromide on contact [1]. Hydrogen sulfide ignites on contact with the bromate [2],...

The catalytic oxidation of S02 produces S03, which reacts with water to produce sulfuric acid, and it dissolves in sulfuric acid to produce disulfuric acid or oleum, H2S207. Solid S03 exists as the trimer (S03)3 but there are different crystalline forms known. 

Today, sulfuric acid is produced by a method known as the contact process in which S02 is oxidized to S03, which then reacts with water to give the acid. Oxidation of S02 requires a suitable catalyst such as spongy platinum or sodium vanadate. In many cases, S03 is dissolved in 98% sulfuric acid to produce disulfuric acid oleum], which can be shipped, diluted, and still give 100% sulfuric acid. The concentration of S03 varies from 10 to 70% in commercial oleum.

At present, almost all sulfuric acid is made by the contact process, which has been in use since 1831. The first step is exothermic air oxidation of SO2 catalyzed by vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) or platinum (reaction 10.5). The yield of SO3 is limited on the first pass to some 60% because the temperature rises to 600 °C or more usually, three more passes over the catalyst are made, and the yield can be increased to 98%. The SO3 vapor is then absorbed into 100% H2SO4 (reaction 10.6), and water is added to the resulting mixture of disulfuric (H2S207) and sulfuric acids (known as oleum) until the H2S2O7 is all hydrolyzed to H2SO4 (reaction 10.7). This obviates the aerosol problem.

A number of suboxides of sulfur have been reported, but in general their composition has not been clearly established. Polysulfur oxides of formula Ss- 10O2 are formed by reaction of hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. Also, when sulfur is burned with oxygen in very limited supply disulfur monoxide, S20 is formed. This has the structnie...

Much attention was given in CHEC-II(1996) <1996CHEC-II(4)409> to the synthesis of 1,2,3-dithiazoles. Cyclic and acyclic oximes were found to be important precursors to their preparation. The discovery of 4,5-dichloro-1,2,3-dithiazolium chloride (Appel salt 20) from the reaction of commercial and cheap acetonitrile and disulfur dichloride gave strong impulse to the synthesis of various 1,2,3-dithiazole derivatives. Formation of the 1,2,3-oxathiazole ring involved almost exclusively the conversion of m -aminohydroxyl compounds to the A-oxide derivatives. 

The reaction of 1,2-diadamantylacetylene with disulfur dichloride led to the formation of the dithiete 232 (mentioned above), l,2-diadamantyl-2-thiooxoethanone 233, and the thiirene 1-oxide derivative 234 in 21%, 33%, and 27% yield, respectively (Equation 50) <2000TL8349, 2003JA12114, 1998BCJ1181 >.
