A facile, high-yielding method for the conversion of halides to mercaptans

An efficient, high-yield, one-pot preparation of alkyl and activated aryl mercaptans is presented. The method relies on sodium thiophosphate displacement of the halide, followed by mild hydrolysis of the intermediate phosphorothioate. Graphic
