Here's one attempt...

syn region Strings matchgroup=myRegularString start=/"/ end=/"/
syn match myByteString /\<b\ze"/ nextgroup=Strings
syn match myHexString /\<x\ze"/ nextgroup=Strings
syn match myOtherString /\<i\ze"/ nextgroup=Strings

hi def link Strings String
hi def link myByteString Delimiter
hi def link myHexString Delimiter
hi def link myOtherString Delimiter
hi def link myRegularString Delimiter
