Abstract

Abstract halides comprising reacting by contacting in the liquid phase (a) sulfur dioxide and (b) an organic compound bearing at least one allylic or benzylic trihalomethyl group; the halogen of said trihalomethyl group being fluoro, chloro, bromo or mixtures thereof; said process being conducted in the presence of a small but catalytic amount of BF3, BF3.etherate, SnCl4 or ZnCl2 and at a temperature of from about 50*C. to about 125*C.
