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 stench. Thiirane is also used to describe any derivative of the parent ethylene sulfide.
Preparation
It is prepared by the reaction of ethylene carbonate and KSCN.[3] For this purpose the KSCN is first melted under vacuum to remove water.
- KSCN + C2H4O2CO → KOCN + C2H4S + CO2
Reactions
Ethylenesulfide adds to amines to afford 2-mercaptoethylamines,[4] which are good chelating ligands.
- C2H4S + R2NH → R2NCH2CH2SH
Dithiiranes
Dithiiranes are three membered rings containing two sulfur atoms and one carbon. One example was prepared by oxidation of a 1,3-dithietane.[5]
