Sodium Sulfite ACS is a crystalline or powdery substance that appears white in color. Comprised of sodium ions (Na+) and sulfite ions (SO3^2-), sodium sulfite is an inorganic salt that readily dissolves in water. It is commonly employed as a reducing agent and finds extensive use in various industries. Functioning as an inorganic sodium salt with sulfite as its counterion, sodium sulfite ACS is represented by the chemical formula Na2SO3. It is suitable for laboratory purposes.

Application :
- Sodium sulfite ACS is also used for sulfonation and sulfomethylation reactions.
- It can be used as a reducing agent in the hydroxylation of arylboronic acids and arylboronic esters into corresponding phenols, in the transformation of ?-amino alcohol methanesulfonate hydrochlorides to sodium ?-amino alkanesulfonates and as a SO2 precursor in the multigram synthesis of DABCO·(SO2)2 abbreviated as DABSO.
- As an oxygen and free chlorine scavenger, it is employed in the water treatment process. It is also used in the production of sodium thiosulfate, detergents, and dyes.
- Sodium sulfite ACS participates in the purification and isolation of aldehydes and ketones by forming adducts with them.
