C4H5As
Arsole, rarely called arsenole, is a cyclic organoarsenic chemical compound (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_compound) of the formula (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula) C4H5As. The structure is isoelectronic to that of pyrrole (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrrole) except that an arsenic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic) atom is substituted for the nitrogen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen) atom. Arsole is only mildly aromatic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic), with about half the aromaticity of pyrrole.[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsole#cite_note-0) Arsole itself does exist but is rarely found in its pure form. Several substituted (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_(chemistry)) analogs called arsoles also exist.
When arsole is fused to a benzene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene) ring, this molecule is called arsindole, or benzarsole

Don't ask what I was looking for to find that:rolleyes:
