A process for the preparation of aromatic thiols represented by the general formula (I): Y¿n?-Ar-(SH)¿m?

(wherein Ar, Y, m and n are each as defined above; R is secondary or tertiary hydrocarbyl, or primary hydrocarbyl represented by the general formula: -CH¿2?-R?1¿ or -CH¿2?-CR?2¿=C(R?2¿)¿2? wherein R?1¿ is a monovalent aromatic ring group optionally substituted by hydrocarbyl; and R?2¿ is hydrogen or hydrocarbyl) in the presence of (A) a Lewis acid or a protonic acid (with the proviso that when a protonic acid is used, primary hydrocarbyl is excluded from R) and a solvent, and, if necessary, hydrolyzing the reaction product thus obtained.
