At the same time, SH hydrogen bonding is much weaker than OH hydrogen bonding, with the consequence that thiols are more volatile and have lower boiling points than the corresponding alcohols for example, 6 °C (43 °F) for methanethiol compared with 66 °C (151 °F) for methanol.
Low-molecular-weight thiols such as methanethiol (CH3SH) are found in crude petroleum.
