Summary

  1. 1.

    A study was made of the reactions of tetrafluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene, trifluoroethylene, and hexafluoropropene with sulfur trioxide.

  2. 2.

    Fluoro olefins and sulfur trioxide (α-modification) react in equimolecular proportions with formation of fluorine-containing β-sultones.

  3. 3.

    The addition of sulfur trioxide to fluoro olefins occurs in the direction corresponding to the polarities of the reactants.
