In organosulfur chemistry, thiosulfinate is a functional group consisting of the linkage R-S(O)-S-R (R are organic substituents). The thiosulfinate functional group is rare, but these compounds are invoked as intermediates in the oxidation of thiols to sulfonic acids, which is a common transformation. They feature a S(IV) center linked to a S(II) center, the former being stereogenic. A well-known thiosulfinate is allicin, one of the active ingredients in garlic.
