Abstract

In the present study, the reaction of thiols with alkyl sulfonyl halides was carried out in a nitrogenous base to compare the reactivity of ‐SH with that of ‐OH, which, however, led to the formation of disulfides. The reaction achieved as a result offers the use of an inexpensive reagent, quantitative yields of the product, and simplicity for the formation of the S‐S bond.
