REACTIONS OF N,N-BIS(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)HYDROXYLAMINE WITH SULFUR AND NITROGEN HALIDES

A study of the reactions of (CF3)2NOH with several sulfur- and nitrogen-containing halides in the presence of cesium fluoride has resulted in the preparation and characterization of several previously unreported compounds of the general formula (CF3)2NOX where X = SO2F, SO3N(CF3)2, S(0)0N(CF3)2, SON(CF3)2, S(O)F, and SSON(CF3)2. These have been iso¬lated and identified by infrared, nmr, and mass spectra, molecular weight determinations, and elemental analyses. An un¬stable compound of the formula (CF3)2NONF2 is reported as is a convenient method for the preparation of (CF3)2NON-(CF3)2. © 1968, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
