Reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography with conductivity detection provides a rapid and efficient technique for the quantitative separation of polythionates, sulfate, thiosulfate, and dithionate. Tetraalkylammonium salts were used as ion-pair reagents. Separations were accomplished in less than 15 min., with detection limits in the low parts-per-million range, except for S/sub 5/O/sub 6//sup 2 -/. Retention was dependent on the nature of both the cation and the anion of the ion-air reagent. 18 references, 2 tables.
