Normally (11) and (12) are indistinguishable either form can be isolated by salt or ester formation. Compound (11) is termed the O-acid (thiono) and (12) the S-acid (thiolo). For simple acids, the prefix thio is used for example, MeCH2CH2COSH is thiobutyric acid. For more complex structures, the suffix thioic acid is used for example,... 

Attempts to prepare thiocarboxylic acid lead esters using thiobutyric acid were described by Ulrich in 1859 [314]. Lead bis(thiobenzoate) can be obtained in good yields by the reaction of (CH3COO)2Pb or (PhS)2Pb with thiobenzoic acid [39]. Four routes to organoplumbyl thiocarboxylates RCOE)xPbR4 x (E=S x=l, 2) have been developed (1) Ph3PbSLi-i-RCOCl [77, 280] (2) R PbCl + alkali...
