'''Thiazine''' {{IPAc-en|ˈ|θ|aɪ|ə|z|iː|n}} is an organic compound containing a ring of four carbon, one nitrogen and one sulfur atom. There are three isomers of thiazine, 1,2-thiazine, 1,3-thiazine, and 1,4-thiazine, which differ by the arrangement of the nitrogen and sulfur atoms in the ring.

Derivatives of thiazine, often referred to as thiazines, are used for dyes, tranquilizers and insecticides.

== Preparation == 1,4-thiazine can be prepared from the corresponding dione using aluminium powder at high temperature.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Barkenbus|first1=Charles|last2=Landis|first2=Phillip S.|date=February 1948|title=The Preparation of 1,4-Thiazine|journal=Journal of the American Chemical Society|volume=70|issue=2|pages=684–685|doi=10.1021/ja01182a075|bibcode=1948JAChS..70..684B |issn=0002-7863}}</ref> center|frameless|Synthesis of 1,4-thiazine.
