Potassium hydrosulfide is an inorganic compound with the formula KSH. This colourless salt consists of the cation K + and the bisulfide anion [SH] −. It is the product of the half-neutralization of hydrogen sulfide with potassium hydroxide. The compound is used in the synthesis of some organosulfur compounds. [1]
Sulfide is highly basic, consequently K 2 S completely and irreversibly hydrolyzes in water according to the following equation: K 2 S + H 2 O → KOH + KSH. For many purposes, this reaction is inconsequential since the mixture of SH − and OH − behaves as a source of S 2−. Other alkali metal sulfides behave similarly. [3]
