Rhenium heptafluoride is the compound with the formula ReF7. It is a yellow low melting solid and is the only thermally stable metal heptafluoride.[2] It has a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal structure similar to IF7, which was confirmed by neutron diffraction at 1.5 K.[3] The structure is non-rigid, as evidenced by electron diffraction studies.[4]
Production, reactions and properties
Rhenium heptafluoride can be prepared from the elements at 400 °C:[5]
- 2 Re + 7 F2 → 2 ReF7
It also can be produced by the explosion of rhenium metal under sulfur hexafluoride. [6]
It hydrolyzes under a base to form perrhenic acid and hydrogen fluoride:[1]
- ReF7 + 4H2O → HReO4 + 7HF
With fluoride donors such as CsF, the ReF−
8 anion is formed, which has a square antiprismatic structure.[7] With antimony pentafluoride, SbF5, a fluoride acceptor, the ReF+
6 cation is formed.[5]
