The Methyl Group as A Protecting Group for Arylthiols: A Mild and Efficient Method for the Conversion of Methyl Aryl Sulfides to Arylthiols

Methyl aryl sulfides are converted in a mild, "one-pot", three step procedure via Pummerer rearrangement of the corresponding sulfoxides, and without purification of intermediates, to provide arylthiols in excellent yields.
