<p>Oxysulfide and fluorinated organic compounds, for example, perfluoroalkanesulfinic and sulfonic acids, and preferably trifluoromethanesulfinic and trifluoromethanesulfonic acids in salt form, are prepared by reacting, in the presence of an aprotic polar organic solvent: (i) a fluorocarboxylic acid having the formula Ea-CF2—COOH (I), wherein Ea is an atom or an electroattracting group at least partially forming a salt with an organic or inorganic cation; with (ii) a sulfur oxide, preferably sulfur dioxide, and further wherein the ratio of the number of moles of sulfur oxide to the number of moles of fluorocarboxylic acid is less than 1, preferably less than 0.99.</p> |
