Thiirane, more commonly known as ethylene sulfide, is the cyclic chemical compound with the formula C₂H₄S.[2] It is the smallest sulfur-containing heterocycle and the simplest episulfide. Like many organosulfur compounds, this species has a highly unpleasant odour. Thiirane is also used to describe any derivative of the parent ethylene sulfide.

Structure

According to electron diffraction, the C-C and C-S distances in ethylene sulfide are respectively 1.473 and 1.811 Å. The C-C-S and C-S-C angles are respectively 66.0 and 48.0°.[3]

Preparation and reactions

It can be prepared by the reaction of ethylene carbonate and KSCN.[4] For this purpose the KSCN is first melted under vacuum to remove water.

KSCN + C₂H₄O₂CO → KOCN + C₂H₄S + CO₂

Ethylenesulfide adds to amines to afford 2-mercaptoethylamines,[5] which are good chelating ligands.

C₂H₄S + R₂NH → R₂NCH₂CH₂SH

This process is often called mercaptoethylation.[6]

Oxidation of thiirane with periodate gives ethylene episulfoxide.
