The mononuclear title complex, [VCl2O(C3H8S)2], features a V(IV)=O double bond [1.5845 (15) Å] in an overall trigonal-bipyramidal coordination environment defined by two Cl(-) and the S atoms of two (CH3CH2)(CH3)S ligands. In the crystal, pairs of mol-ecules form centrosymmetric dimers via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the methyl C-H group and the oxidovanadium O atom of a neighbouring mol-ecule.
