Être sulfuré signifie être combiné avec le soufre et être soufré signifie contenir du soufre. Or, par définition, un composé est «une espèce chimique formée par la combinaison de deux ou plusieurs éléments». Il ne peut donc pas être qualifié de «soufré». 1, record 1, French, - compos%C3%A9%20sulfur%C3%A9%20r%C3%A9actif
