IX3 (X = Cl, OCOCF3, ONO2) reacts with Cd(CF3)2 complexes or Bi(CF3)3 to yield the corresponding CF3IX2 derivatives. 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic evidence is found for [I(CF3)2]+ and I(CF3)2X (X = Cl, OCOCF3) in the reactions of CF3IX2 with Cd(CF3)2 complexes. During the reaction of CF3IF2 and Hg(CF3)2 the new species I(CF3)2F and cis-[I(CF3)2F2]− are identified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The reactions proceed under polar conditions and can be accelerated by the addition of a Lewis acid such as BF3, B(OCOCF3)3, or Sb(V) compounds. Difluoromethyl compounds are formed as by-products. Key words: polar trifluoromethylations, trifluoromethyl iodine(III) compounds, difluoromethyl group formation.

Nuclear magnetic resonance and certain conductivity data are reported for solutions of perchloric and fluorosulfuric acids in sulfolane. Additional measurements were made on solutions of disulfuric and hexachloroantimony (V) acids. HSbCl6 is a strong acid in this weakly basic dipolar aprotic solvent. HClO4, HSO3F, and H2S2O7 are incompletely dissociated with K = 10−2.7, 10−3.3, and ~ 10−5, respectively. The acid strength in dilute solution in sulfolane follows the order HClO4 > HSO3F > H2S2O7, which differs from that known in H2SO4 which is a strongly associated polar protic solvent.
