Hazard Predictions

• Flammable: Reaction products may be flammable
• Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
• Toxic: Reaction products may be toxic

Thioethers and thiols are susceptible to nucleophilic cleavage under acidic conditions; for example, when reacting with an acid that has a nucleophilic conjugate base, such as HI or HBr. These reactions liberate thiols when starting with a thioether, and hydrogen sulfide when starting with a thiol (Loudon, Marc. 2002. Organic Chemistry. 4th ed. New York: Oxford University Press. p. 465-466, 479-480).

These reactions are much more likely to occur with strong acids than weak acids, but a slow reaction with weak acids is not inconceivable. The rate of reaction could be increased by catalytic impurities such as metal salts.
