An object of this invention is to provide a simple method for producing sulfur tetrafluoride. The object is achieved by a method for producing sulfur tetrafluoride, comprising step A of reacting a fluorinated halogen compound with sulfur chloride, the fluorinated halogen compound being represented by formula: XF.sub.n, wherein X is chlorine, bromine, or iodine; and n is a natural number of 1 to 5.

The present invention provides a novel method for producing hydrogen fluoride which can suppress the occurrence of the pasty state over the whole process of producing hydrogen fluoride, reduce the problem of corrosion caused by sulfuric acid, and improve energy efficiency of the process. A method for producing hydrogen fluoride by reacting calcium fluoride and sulfuric acid comprises: (a) mixing and reacting calcium fluoride and sulfuric acid such that a mixture comprising calcium fluoride particles and sulfuric acid substantially maintains a form of particulate to obtain hydrogen fluoride while supplying sulfuric acid to the calcium fluoride particles at a flow rate of 0.002 to 1 mol/min relative to 1 mol of calcium fluoride to such an amount that a molar ratio of sulfuric acid/calcium fluoride is 0.9 to 1.1.
