Starting from alkyl- or aryl-substituted malonic esters prepared by various methods, 2-(methylthio)alkanoic acids are synthesized by successive treatment with sodium ethoxide and with S-methyl methanethiosulfonate, followed by alkaline hydrolysis which causes concurrent decarboxylation.Production of 2-(phenylthio)alkanoic acids is also achieved in a similar manner.
