Sulfur compounds

Acetylcysteine or '''N-acetylcysteine (NAC'; not to be confused with N''-acetylcarnosine, which is also abbreviated NAC) is a mucolytic that is used to treat paracetamol (acetaminophen) overdose and to loosen thick mucus in individuals with chronic bronchopulmonary disorders, such as pneumonia and bronchitis. It has been used to treat lactobezoar in infants. It can be taken intravenously, orally (swallowed by mouth), or inhaled as a mist by use of a nebulizer. It is also sometimes used as a dietary supplement.

There are two main classes of polysulfides: inorganic and organic. The inorganic polysulfides have the general formula . These anions are the conjugate bases of polysulfanes . Organic polysulfides generally have the formulae , where R is an alkyl or aryl group.

Sulfanyl (•), also known as the mercapto radical, hydrosulfide radical, or hydridosulfur, is a simple radical molecule consisting of one hydrogen and one sulfur atom. The S-H distance in the radical is 0.134 nm. The radical is also proposed to be formed by the action of ultraviolet radiation on hydrogen sulfide. A wavelength of 190 nm gives maximum absorption.

'''S-Nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP''') is the organosulfur compound with the formula ONSC(CH3)2CH(NHAc)CO2H. It is a green solid.
