oxytrisulfide
Oxytrisulfide is a hypothetical chemical compound with the formula SO3. It is an oxide of sulfur and a sulfur oxysulfide. The name oxytrisulfide implies a structure containing oxygen and three sulfur atoms. However, the precise bonding arrangement and stability of such a molecule are not well-established. Theoretical calculations suggest that SO3 could exist as a linear molecule, O-S-S-S, or potentially in other isomeric forms. Due to the high oxidation state of sulfur and the presence of multiple sulfur-sulfur bonds, oxytrisulfide is predicted to be highly reactive and unstable. It is not a commonly encountered or synthesized compound. Its existence is primarily a matter of theoretical interest in the study of sulfur-oxygen chemistry. Further research would be required to confirm its stability and properties, and it is not currently a recognized or characterized substance in standard chemical databases.
