2,3-Dihydrothiophene is a heterocyclic compound and an organosulfur compound with the formula SC₄H₆. It is isomeric with the more symmetrical 2,5-dihydrothiophene. Both isomers of dihydrothiophene are colorless liquids with a thioether-like odor. In terms of their reactivity, both isomers exhibit characteristics of alkenes and thioethers, undergoing addition reactions at carbon and oxidation at sulfur. In contrast, thiophene engages in neither reaction.[1]

Dihydrothiophenes in nature

Dihydrothiophenes contribute to the aroma of the white truffle. The major component is 3-methyl-4,5-dihydrothiophene (alternative name:4-methyl-2,3-dihydrothiophene), produced by bacterial colonies in the truffle's fruiting bodies.[2]

gollark: Oh, and the next Intel CPUs should actually be very good, as they're adding 8 smaller low-power cores which are nevertheless apparently around Skylake performance to basically everything.

gollark: They are also making datacenter cards, which were delayed because lol no working 7nm.

gollark: Soon apparently we get "Arc Alchemist", a gaming-oriented card, which is meant to be bigger and have hardware raytracing/matrix multiplication units.

gollark: Currently only DG1, which is just their latest integrated graphics (surprisingly good) on a PCIe card.

gollark: They've begun releasing discrete GPUs.
