<p>The present invention pertains to a process for producing sulfonylimide compounds (represented by the formula (I) MN(SO2Rf<1>) (SO2Rf<2>)) industrially easily at a low cost in an efficient manner, wherein the process comprises reacting at least one of the sulfonyl halogenides represented by the formula (II) RfSO2X with anhydrous ammonia or an ammonium salt in the presence of a fluorine compound represented by the formula (III) MF, in which: X represents with F or Cl among halogen elements of group VIIb of the periodic table; M represents any one of Li, Na, K and Cs among alkali metals of group Ia in the periodic table; Rf<1> and Rf<2>, which are the same or different, respectively represent any one of a straight chain or branched compound of a fluoroalkyl, perfluoroalkyl, fluoroallyl or fluoroalkenyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; and Rf in the above formula (II) represents the same group as Rf<1> or Rf<2> in the formula (I).</p> |
