Abstract
5,6-Dihydro-2H-thiopyran-3-carboxaldehydes of the formula ##STR1## where R denotes hydrogen or methyl, are prepared by a method in which acrolein or crotonaldehyde is reacted with hydrogen sulfide in a mineral oil whose boiling point is higher than those of the starting materials and of the end product, and the 5,6-dihydro-2H-thiopyran-3-carboxaldehyde is obtained by distillation. These aldehydes are important intermediates for the preparation of some crop protection agents.
