Title compounds are electrochemically reduced into anion radicals of rather long lifetime. Surprisingly decomposition of such intermediates does not correspond as expected to a pure sulphur-carbon bond cleavage but mainly to a nucleophilic substitution toward the substrate. Nevertheless, cleavage reactions are observed in the case of methyl compounds.
