Sulfur trioxide (SO₃) adds to fluoroolefins of the form RCF=CF₂, (where R = F, SF₅, CF₃, CF₃OCF₂, CF₂=CF(CF₂)₂, CF₃(CF₂)₃O, CF₃O(CF₂)₂OCF₂, or CH₂ClCHClCH₂), yielding the fluorinated [beta]-sultones, RCFCF₂OSO₂. In the case of CF₃(CF₂)₃OCF=CF₂, a reverse addition occurs, giving the sultone, CF₃(CF₂)₃CF₂2OCFCF₂SO₂O. The fluoro [beta]-sultones are capable of undergoing different reactions, such as rearrangement, hydrolysis, esterification, and polymerization. These reactions, will result in the formation of compounds containing the fluorosulfonyl grouping (SO₂F); it is this group that yields the corresponding sulfonic acid upon base/acid treatment.

Reactions of different alcohols with 2-hydroxy - 1- trifluoromethyl -1,2,2-trifluoroethanesulfonic acid sultone F3CCFCF2OSO2 were studied. Six new esters were prepared: C6F5OC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F, CH3CH2OC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F, CF3CH2OC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F, (CF3)2CHOC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F, CH2=CHCH2OC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F, (CH2OC(O)CF(CF3)SO2F)2. Analytical data, infrared, nmr and mass spectra are presented supporting the proposed structures for these new compounds.
