Formaldehydesulfoxylate

Sodium sulfoxylate formaldehyde (also known as rongalite) is the sodium salt form of formaldehydesulfoxylate, also known as hydroxymethanesulfinic acid. It was originally developed as a treatment for mercury poisoning but was found to be of limited value. Currently, it is widely used in organic synthesis. It can be used as a reducing agent for elemental selenium and tellurium, diselenides, α‐halo ketones, and aromatic aldehydes. It yields symmetrical sulfones with primary halides and with Michael acceptors. Sodium sulfoxylate formaldehyde is a water-soluble antioxidant and is generally used as the dihydrate. It is used as an excipient in the formulation of injection products at a level of up to 0.1% w/v (weight by volume) in the final preparation administered to the patient.

Affygility Solutions has an occupational exposure limit (OEL) and control band assignment for this active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). This monograph also contains the acceptable daily exposure (ADE) value.
