The studies that employ mild conditions and low catalyst loading use thiophenol derivatives or simple alkylthiols as

- synthesis of benzothiophenes, however, these methods rely on the use of organosulfur-based substrates [38][39][40][41]. Moreover, these methods are associated with some limitations such as using costly metal catalysts, air-sensitive starting materials, malodorous sulfides or thiols, low yields, and

- displacements of 1,3-dihaloalkanes with different sulfide salts, thiourea was also used as a nucleophile in the double displacements, actually following the preparation procedure of thiols, affording thietane derivatives. Thiourea reacted with 3,3-bis(chloromethyl)oxetane (76) in the presence of HClO4 to yield
- into two different dimesylated nucleosides. After the deprotection with Hg(OAc)2 in the presence of TFA, the dimesylated thiols 127 and 130 generated companied with the thietane-fused nucleoside 128 in one case. Further the treatment of the dimesylated thiols 127 and 130 with DBU gave rise to the
- 143. A proton transfer generated hydroxyalkanethiolates 144 because the acidity of the thiols is higher than that of alcohols, the newly generated thiolates 144 underwent an intramolecularly nucleophilic displacement to give thietane-3-ols 145 [56] (Scheme 28). In a similar approach

- excited state of the photocatalyst engages in SET or energy transfer events with suitable cocatalysts for hydrogen shuttling, such as thiols. This results in the formation of active species that promote the H abstraction from the substrates. MacMillan exploited this strategy for the deuteration and
- disulfides, sulfides or even thiols [167]. However, their use in organophotocatalysis is scarce. In substoichiometric quantities, they are efficient H atom shuttles and play a primordial role in hydrogen transfer mechanisms. For this reason, one of their major applications is the HAT to the cocatalyst
