Perfluorohalogenoorganosulfenyl halides

Perfluorohalogenoorganosulfenyl halides are, like thiols, mercaptides, and thioketones, key compounds for the synthesis of new perfluorohalo-genoorganomercapto derivatives. The high reactivity of the S—X bond (X = Cl, Br) toward electrophilic as well as nucleophilic reagents causes them to be highly valued starting materials for the synthesis of new derivatives. The chemistry of the not very stable sulfenyl fluorides has...
