Oxetene is an unsaturated heterocycle. The compound is unstable and has been synthesized. [1] Compared to oxetane, the saturated compound, oxetene is destabilized because the double bond increases the ring strain. Synthesis of some substituted derivatives has been reported. [2] [3]
Oxetene can be synthesised by the photochemical cyclization of acrolein: [4]
