OK, I have actually find a reference via an answer sheet available online as a pdf from one of the 12 Microsoft® Innovative Schools worldwide, and is
the only one in Asia (see http://www.microsoft.com/casestudies/Microsoft-Windows-XP/Fu... ), that confirms my reaction products. To repeat my speculated reaction equation:
2 SCl2 + 4 H2O --> 4 HOCl + 2 H2S --> 2 HOCl + 2 HCl (g) + 2 H2O + 2 S (c) --> 4 HCl (g) + 2 H2O + SO2 + S (c)
or, upon eliminating 2 H2O from the first and last equations:
2 SCl2 + 2 H2O --> 4 HCl (g) + SO2 + S (c)
The attached answer sheet pdf file reference from the Fungkai School (HK) on page 4 states to quote:
" For SCl2 + H2O -> HOCl + HSCl (or accept S + SO2 + HCl )"
