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-alkylthiirenium salts have been characterized by X-ray crystallography.^[3]
