Sulfur trifluoride is the inorganic chemical compound with the formula SF₃. It is a radical.

Structure and synthesis

Sulfur trifluoride is predicted to be pyramidal.

SF₃ is generated by irradiation of crystals SF
₃BF
₄ with gamma rays.

SF
₃

A derivative formally derived from SF
₃ is the coordination complex Ir(Cl)(CO)(F)(SF₃)(Et₃P)₂ obtained by oxidative addition of sulfur tetrafluoride to Ir(Cl)(CO)(PEt₃)₂ (Et = C₂H₅).
