Abstract
The elusive molecule thioformyl cyanide, S=CH-CN (2), was generated by flash vacuum pyrolysis of allyl cyanomethyl sulfide (1) and character ized by argon matrix infrared spectroscopy. The observed infrared abso rptions (2221, 1320, 1103, 889, and 824 cm-1) are in good agreement wi th ab initio molecular orbital calculations at the MP2/6-31G level.
