The thiylation of α,β-pinenes and camphene by hydrogen sulfide and 1-butanethiol, catalyzed by aluminum halides and alkylaluminum halides, was investigated.The regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of the reaction depend on the acidity of the catalyst.The thiylation of pinenes by hydrogen sulfide in the presence of alkylaluminum halides leads to the preferential formation of trans-pinane-2-thiol, and the catalyst with the higher acidity (aluminum bromide) promotes the menthene isomerization of the pinenes.
