Thiirene

Thiirene is an organosulfur compound with the formula C2H2S. It can be viewed as a derivative of cyclopropene, but with the methylene group replaced by sulfur. It is antiaromatic and very labile.[1]

Thiirenes and derivatives

No thiirene has been isolated at room temperature, but they have been observed spectroscopically at low temperatures.[2]

Thiirene-S-oxides and S-alkylthiirinium salts have been characterized by X-ray crystallography.[3]
