Abstract
A process for sulfonating at least one halobenzene with sulfur trioxide (SO3) comprising the following steps: Step 1. manufacturing a gaseous mixture [mixture (M)] comprising SO3 and at least one additional gas different from SO3 by oxidizing sulfur dioxide in the presence of at least one catalyst, wherein the SO3 content in mixture (M) is from 1 to 95% by volume, relative to the total volume of mixture (M); and step 2 contacting said mixture (M) with said at least one halobenzene.
