The S-functionalized catechols were prepared by the Michael reaction from 3,5-di-<i>tert</i>-butyl-<i>o</i>-benzoquinone and the corresponding thiols. The starting reagents such as substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiols and 4<i>H</i>-triazole-3-thiols are characterized by thiol–thione tautomerism, therefore their reactions with 3,5-di-<i>tert</i>-butyl-6-methoxymethylcatechol can proceed at the sulfur or nitrogen atom. In the case of mercapto-derivatives of thiazole or pyridine, this process leads to the formation of the corresponding thioethers with a methylene linker. At the same time, thiolated 1,3,4-oxadiazole or 1,2,4-triazole undergo alkylation at the nitrogen atom in the reaction with 3,5-di-<i>tert</i>-butyl-6-methoxymethylcatechol to form the corresponding thiones.
