Herein, we describe a KO-t-Bu catalyzed thiolation of β-(hetero)arylethyl ethers through MeOH elimination to form (hetero)arylalkenes followed by anti-Markovnikov hydrothiolation to afford linear thioethers. The system works well with a variety of β-(hetero)arylethyl ethers, including electron-deficient, electron-neutral, electron-rich, and branched substrates and a range of aliphatic and aromatic thiols.

The thiol–ene reaction leading to a series of thioether derivatives by simple metal and oxidant free visible light promoted photosensitized protocol, following anti-Markonikov hydrothiolation of unactivated aryl and alkyl olefins at room temperature is demonstrated. Benzil served as a green photosensitizer in this reaction and white LED lights as a light source. This radical based thiol–ene reaction is operationally simple and tolerates a wide variety of functional groups present in olefins.

2-(4-Pyridyl)ethyl sulfides have been prepared from a variety of alkyl and aryl thiols and from alkyl and acyl halides.These sulfides and their corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones were each depyridylethylated by quaternization and subsequent treatment with mild base to give respectively the thiols, sulfenic acids, sulfinic acids, and sulfenamides.During one of these protection-deprotection sequences, methyl 1-octyl sulfoxide was readily converted by aerial oxidation into the corresponding sulfone.
