- SCl2 + 2 KF → SF2 + 2 KCl
- SCl2 + HgF2 → SF2 + HgCl2
The F−S−F bond angle is 98°, and the length of S−F bond is 159 pm.[1] The compound is highly unstable, dimerising to FSSF3. This unsymmetrical isomer of S2F4 is proposed to arise via insertion of SF2 into the S−F bond of a second molecule SF2:[2]
It can also be formed from oxygen difluoride and hydrogen sulfide:[citation needed]
- OF2 + H2S → SF2 + H2O
