Thietane is a heterocyclic compound containing a saturated four-membered ring with three carbon atoms and one sulfur atom.[1][2]

Thietane, and its derivative 2-propylthietane, are strong-smelling mouse alarm pheromones and predator scent analogues.[3][4] Both the mouse and human olfactory receptors MOR244-3 and OR2T11, respectively, were found to respond to thietane in the presence of copper.[5]
