An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing methane fluoride that is useful, for example, as a dry etching gas, the method being more suitable for industrial production. To achieve this object, the present invention provides a method including reacting (A) dimethyl sulfate and (B) at least one fluorocompound in a liquid phase, the fluorocompound (B) being at least one compound selected from the group consisting of hydrogen fluoride and hydrofluoric acid salts, or a metal fluoride, wherein when the fluoride compound (B) includes hydrogen fluoride or a hydrofluoric acid salt, the reaction is carried out without a solvent or using a polar solvent as a solvent, and when the fluoride compound (B) is a metal fluoride, the reaction is carried out using water as a solvent. |
