Abstract: The invention is a method of synthesizing Arylsulfur Trifluorides, such as Fluolead, by reacting BR2 and KF (or suitable alkali metal fluoride) in acetonitrile (or other suitable solvent). The invention also comprises using the Fluolead (or its substitutes), thus prepared, in situ as deoxofluorination reagents with a suitable aldehyde, ketone, or alcohol such as one selected from the group consisting of benzaldehyde Benzaldehyde, p-Bromobenzaldehyde, p-Tolualdehyde, Acetophenone, 2-Butanone, or Isobutyraldehyde, wherein the mixture is heated to reflux until completion. The respective products are then isolated after extraction by hexane and destruction of the sulfinyl fluoride co-product.

Abstract: The invention concerns a production method which consists in forming a reaction medium containing 2,2,4,4,-tetramethyl-3-pentanone, hydrogen peroxide, ammonia and a zeolitic structure catalyst and allowing the reaction to obtain said oxime. 2,2,4,4,-tetramethyl-3-pentanone and hydrogen peroxide can be obtained by auto-oxidation of 2,2,4,4,-tetramethyl-3-pentanol with oxygen or air. Hydroxylammonium salts are obtained by acid hydrolysis of said oxime.
