A synthetic route to (±)‐2‐ n ‐propylthietane 1 that utilises a silver oxide‐induced Hofmann elimination is described together with an evaluation of the potential of a Cope elimination as an alternative and more cost‐effective route to 1 . Some chemistry of the isomeric intermediate thiete sulfones 5 and 12 from each of these respective eliminations is presented.
