Hydroxide
Hydroxide is a diatomic anion with chemical formula OH. It consists of an oxygen and hydrogen atom held together by a covalent bond, and carries a negative electric charge. It is an important but usually minor constituent of water. It functions as a base, a ligand, a nucleophile, and a catalyst. The hydroxide ion forms salts, some of which dissociate in aqueous solution, liberating solvated hydroxide ions. Sodium hydroxide is a multi-million-ton per annum commodity chemical. A hydroxide attached to a strongly electropositive center may itself ionize, liberating a hydrogen cation (H), making the parent compound an acid.
Bisulfide
At physiological pH, hydrogen sulfide is usually fully ionized to bisulfide (HS) so in biochemical settings, "hydrogen sulfide" is often used to mean, bisulfide or hydrosulfide. Hydrosulfide has been identified as the third gasotransmitter along with nitric oxide and carbon monoxide. Its specific role and direct interaction with signaling molecules is the subject of ongoing research.
