This is what Wiki says ....Smelling salts are also known as ammonium carbonate, a whitish, crystalline solid **NH4)2CO3.H2O).
When placed in water, it is called "aromatic spirits of ammonia."
Smelling salts are used to arouse consciousness because the release of ammonia [NH3] gas that accompanies their use irritates the membranes of the nose and lungs, and thereby triggers an inhalation reflex (that is, it causes the muscles that control breathing to work faster). One such smelling salt is ammonium carbonate (NH4)2CO3Comment

I'm glad it was banned, we're still wallowing in the after-effects of what went on and what was used in those days. That stuff was only conducive to fighters taking more punishment and prolonging the conclusion of brutal matches where one fighter should have already lost. If it hadn't been banned, boxing might be on the verge of being banned by now.Comment
