A protocol for the Au‐promoted anti‐Markovnikovhydrothiolation of olefins using ex situ generated methanethiol is reported. The use of S‐methylisothiourea hemisulfate salt as a solid precursor for methanethiol generation ensures a safe and reliable deliverance of a stoichiometric amount of this thiol. The procedure was shown to work for a broad range of olefins providing the corresponding hydrothiolated
