Thiodiglycolaldehyde (1) has been synthesised by dehydration of its hemialdal form, cis-2,6-dihydroxy-1,4-oxathiane (2a).The hydration and polymerisation of 1 have been studied.The composition and conformational population has been established for solutions of 2a in various solvents.In aqueous solution, 1, 2a and its trans isomer 2b, and the acyclic dihydrate and monohydrate were detected.The preferred conformer of 2a has diequatorial OH groups.
