The nucleophilic reactivities of substituted thiophenolates were determined by following the kinetics of their reactions with a series of quinone methides (reference electrophiles) in DMSO at 20 °C. The experimentally determined second-order rate constants were analyzed according to the Mayr-Patz equation log k = sN(N + E) to derive the nucleophile-specific reactivity parameters N and sN for ten thiophenolate ions.
PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF THIOPHENOL DERIVATIVES

Page/Page column 9-10, (2008/06/13)
Provided is a process for preparing thiophenol derivatives, using aromatic disulfide as a starting material, and inexpensive sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3) as a reducing agent. The process can be carried out on an industrial scale at low production costs, secures advantageous reaction conditions by using a small amount of water- soluble alcohol solvent. Further, the process can maximize the purity of the products by inhibiting reverse oxidation of the final product by the action of sulfur dioxide (SO2) produced during the preparation process, after solvent extraction of the starting materials present as impurities of the thiophenol derivatives.
