1-Hydroxy- and 1-halocyclopropyl sulfides can be conveniently prepared starting from cyclopropanone.Cyclopropyl sulfides with halogen or a dimethylsulfonium group in the α-position can be transformed into 1-substituted cyclopropyl sulfides with a variety of nucleophiles.This means that the usual difficulties encountered with nucleophilic substitution at three-membered rings - i.e. low rates and ring opening - are largely removed by the presence of an alkylthio group at the same ring carbon atom as the leaving group.
