A three‐step synthesis of the acrylic acid or acrylonitrile derivatives (2) uses thiols and α‐halocarboxylic acids or ‐nitrites as starting materials. The central intermediates are the α‐halosulfides (1) , which give (2) on gas‐phase pyrolysis: the mechanism of this rearrangement resembles that of the Ramberg‐Bäcklund reaction.
