This cherry-red liquid is the simplest sulfur chloride and one of the most common, and it is used as a precursor to ] compounds. It is a highly corrosive and toxic substance, and it reacts on contact with water to form chlorine-containing acids.

The addition of ] to S<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> has been proposed to proceed via a mixed valence intermediate Cl<sub>3</sub>S-SCl. SCl<sub>2</sub> undergoes even further chlorination to give SCl<sub>4</sub>, but this species is unstable at near room temperature. It is likely that several S<sub>x</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> exist where x > 2.

Separation of {{chem2|SCl2}} from {{chem2|S2Cl2}} is possible via distillation with ] to form an ] of 99% purity, however sulfur dichloride loses chlorine slowly at room temperature and reverts to disulfur dichloride. Pure samples may be stored in sealed glass ] which develop a slight positive pressure of chlorine, halting the decomposition.
