Disulphurous acid or pyrosulfurous acid is an oxo acid of sulfur . The molecular formula of the compound is H 2 S 2 O 5 . So far the acid could not be isolated in free form, it is only stable in the form of its salts. Under disulfites , the salts are understood to this acid.

In contrast to disulfuric acid , the two sulfur atoms in disulfuric acid are directly connected to one another. This bond is significantly longer than a regular sulfur-sulfur single bond, which explains the instability of the disulfites.
