Oxepin is an oxygen-containing heterocycle consisting of a seven-membered ring with three double bonds. The parent C6H6O exists as an equilibrium mixture with benzene oxide.

The oxepin–benzene oxide equilibrium is affected by the ring substituents. [1] A related dimethyl derivative exists mainly as the oxepin isomer, an orange liquid. [2]

Oxepin is an intermediate in the oxidation of benzene by the cytochrome P450 (CYP). [3] Other arene oxides are metabolites of the parent arene.

Formation and selected reactions of benzene oxide (2) and oxepin (3).
