Isothiazole, or 1,2-thiazole, is an organic compound consisting with the formula {{chem2|(CH)3S(N)}}. The ring is unsaturated and features an S-N bond.Heterocyclic Chemistry, 3rd Edition, J.A. Joule, K. Mills, and G.F. Smith, page 394 The isomeric thiazole, where the S and N are not directly bonded are far more common.
Isothiazones are produced by oxidation of enamine-thiones.{{cite book |doi=10.1016/B978-0-443-18941-8.00007-9 |chapter=Five-membered S,N-heterocycles |title=5-Membered Heterocycle Synthesis Using Iodine |date=2023 |last1=Kaur |first1=Navjeet |pages=435–472 |isbn=9780443189418 }}
The ring structure of isothiazole is incorporated into larger compounds with biological activity such as the pharmaceutical drugs ziprasidone and perospirone.
