The reactions of ClOSO2F, BrOSO2F, and ClOSO2CF3 with SF4 have been investigated. It has been found that the reactions proceed to form either trifluorosulfonium salts or covalent adducts. In the cases where the hypochlorites were used, the unusual cation SF4Cl+ can be postulated as a reactive intermediate. Characterizations of the new compounds SF3+FSO3-, SF3+CF3SO3-, cis-SF4(Cl)OSO2F, trans-SF4(Cl)OSO2F, and trans-SF4(Cl)OSO2CF3 are reported. The SF3+ salts are thermally unstable, decomposing to SF4, SOF2, and (XSO2)2O (X = F, CF3).
