Heterocyclic compound
A heterocyclic compound is a cyclic compound which has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring. The counterparts of heterocyclic compounds are homocyclic compounds, the rings of which are made of a single element....
s that contain two sulfur atoms and two sp3-hybridized carbon centers. Two isomers are possible for this class of organosulfur compounds:
- 1,2-dithietane1,2-Dithietane1,2-Dithietane is a dithietane....
s, where the sulfur atoms are adjacent - 1,3-dithietane1,3-Dithietane1,3-Dithietane is a dithietane....
s, where the sulfurSulfurSulfur or sulphur is the chemical element with atomic number 16. In the periodic table it is represented by the symbol S. It is an abundant, multivalent non-metal. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with chemical formula S8. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow...
atoms are not adjacent. An example of a 1,3-dithietane is [(CF3)2CS]2.
