Ruthenium (V) fluoride is a chemical compound of ruthenium and is one of the fluorides . It is an emerald green solid.
history
Ruthenium (V) fluoride was first synthesized in 1925 by Otto Ruff and Ernst Vidic. They were actually looking for a ruthenium analogue corresponding to osmium (VI) fluoride , but were unable to synthesize it at the temperatures they could achieve. Instead, the pentafluoride was the only reaction product.
Extraction and presentation
Ruthenium (V) fluoride can be obtained directly from the elements at around 300 ° C.
properties
Ruthenium (V) fluoride crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system in the space group P 2 1 / a (space group no. 14, position 3) with the lattice parameters a = 12.47 Å , b = 10.01 Å, c = 5.42 Å and β = 99.5 ° and eight formula units per unit cell . It forms tetramers in which neighboring ruthenium atoms are linked by fluorine bridges.
Hydrolysis takes place with water , initially a mixture of trivalent and tetravalent ruthenium hydroxides and fluorine is formed . This oxidizes the ruthenium to ruthenium (VIII) oxide . With xenon difluoride as fluoride donor, various ionic compounds are formed in a fluoride transfer reaction depending on the mixing ratio.
