The reactions of bis (2,6-difluorophenyl)iodine(III) and 2,6-difluorophenylxenon(II) tetrafluoroborates with trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate yield the corresponding bis (2,6-difluorophenyl)iodine(III) and (2,6-difluorophenyl)xenon(II) trifluoromethanesolfonates.The products were identified by NMR and vibrational spectroscopy as well as by mass spectrometry.The cation peak of an organoxenon compound has been detected for the first time by FAB mass spectrometry. - Keywords: Synthesis: (2,6-Difluorophenyl)xenon(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate; Bis(2,6-difluorophenyl)iodine(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate; NMR spectroscopy; FAB mass spectrometry
