Thionyl fluoride is the inorganic compound with the formula SOF2. This colourless gas is mainly of theoretical interest but it is a product of the degradation of sulfur hexafluoride an insulator in electrical equipment. The molecule adopts a distorted pyramidal structure with Cs symmetry. The S-O and S-F distances are 1.42 and 1.58 Å respectively. The O-S-F and F-S-F angles are 106.2 and 92.2° respectively.
