Alkanethiols react effectively with chlorobenzene, its derivatives, 1-chloronaphthalene, and 2-chlorothiophene at 600-660 deg C with the preferential formation of the corresponding aromatic or heteroatomic thiols.Ethanethiol is most reactive.When it is used instead of hydrogen sulfide in reactions with chlorobenzene or its 4-substituted derivatives, the yield of the aromatic thiols, from which the phenylthiyl radicals are generated with greater difficulty, increases more sharply than the yield of the thiophenols, which generate the more stable 4-XC6H4S radicals.The side products of the reactions are the corresponding diaryl sulfides, thiophene, benzothiophene, and toluene.
