Talk:Polythionic acid

Proposed move to polythionate?
Polythionic acids are never isolated and no crystal structure is available for members of this series. Polythionate anions are however well characterized, as reflected by a hefty section in Greenwood and Earnshaw. So I am pondering moving this article to polythionate. Alternatively, maybe polythionic acid should be left alone and a parallel article on polythionates should be created.--Smokefoot (talk) 16:34, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
 * This article seems to be about the dilute aqueous solutions of those acids. Presumably they are polythionate ions in solution. This could have also been called "Wackenroder solution". I like your second idea of another article on polythionates - ie the salts. It will be a bit confusing if it is just moved. Anyway referencing here is flimsy.
