The thermal decomposition of 4'-nitro, 4'-H, and 4'-methoxy-benzenesulphenanilides in benzene and/or furan, and of 4'-substituted-2-phenylbenzenesulphenanilides ( 1d-1f ) in benzene, was found to proceed by two distinct pathways: ( i ) nucleophilic displacement by furan and/or another sulphenanilide unit and ( ii ) homolytic S-N bond fission to give sulphenyl and anilino radicals.An increase in the electron-withdrawning capability of the 4'-substituted favours the ionic pathway, whwreas the radical pathway is favoured by an increase in the reaction temperature.
