Correlation between 19F environment and isotropic chemical shift in barium and calcium fluoroaluminates

High-speed MAS (19)F NMR spectra are recorded and reconstructed for 10 compounds from BaF(2)-AlF(3) and CaF(2)-AlF(3) binary systems which leads to the determination of 77 isotropic (19)F chemical shifts in various environments. A first attribution of NMR lines is performed for 8 compounds using a superposition model as initially proposed by B. Bureau et al. The phenomenological parameters of this model are then refined to improve the NMR line assignment. A satisfactory reliability is reached with a root-mean-square (RMS) deviation between calculated and measured values equal to 6 ppm. The refined parameters are then successfully tested on alpha-BaCaAlF(7) whose structure was recently determined. Finally, the isotropic chemical shift ranges are defined for shared, unshared, and "free" fluorine atoms encountered in the investigated binary systems. So, the fluorine surroundings can be deduced from the NMR line positions in compounds whose structure is unknown. Such an approach can also be applied to fluoride glasses.     

Characterization of framework and extra-framework aluminum species in non-hydrated zeolites Y by 27Al spin-echo, high-speed MAS, and MQMAS NMR spectroscopy at B0 = 9.4 to 17.6 T

27Al spin-echo, high-speed MAS (nu(rot) = 30 kHz), and MQMAS NMR spectroscopy in magnetic fields of B0 = 9.4, 14.1, and 17.6 T were applied for the study of aluminum species at framework and extra-framework positions in non-hydrated zeolites Y. Non-hydrated gamma-Al2O3 and non-hydrated aluminum-exchanged zeolite Y (Al,Na-Y) and zeolite H,Na-Y were utilized as reference materials. The solid-state 27Al NMR spectra of steamed zeolite deH,Na-Y/81.5 were found to consist of four signals. The broad low-field signal is caused by a superposition of the signals of framework aluminum atoms in the vicinity of bridging hydroxyl protons and framework aluminum atoms compensated in their negative charge by aluminum cations (delta(iso) = 70 +/- 10 ppm, C(QCC) = 15.0 +/- 1.0 MHz). The second signal is due to a superposition of the signals of framework aluminum atoms compensated by sodium cations and tetrahedrally coordinated aluminum atoms in neutral extra-framework aluminum oxide clusters (delta(iso) = 65 +/- 5 ppm, C(QCC) = 8.0 +/- 0.5 MHz). The residual two signals were attributed to aluminum cations (delta(iso) = 35 +/- 5 ppm, C(QCC) = 7.5 +/- 0.5 MHz) and octahedrally coordinated aluminum atoms in neutral extra-framework aluminum oxide clusters (delta(iso) = 10 +/- 5 ppm, C(QCC) = 5.0 +/- 0.5 MHz). By chemical analysis and evaluating the relative solid-state 27Al NMR intensities of the different signals of aluminum species occurring in zeolite deH,Na-Y/81.5 in the non-hydrated state, the aluminum distribution in this material was determined.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,and characterization of the first Nb(3) triangular cluster compound bonded to fluorine ligands: association of Nb(3)I(i)F(i)(3)F(a)(8)L(a) units and Nb(IV)L(6) Octahedra with L=O and F

The synthesis and the crystal structure of the first compound containing Nb(3) triangular clusters bonded to fluorine ligands are presented in this work. The structure of Nb(3)IF(7)L(NbL(2))(0.25) with L = O and F, determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, is based on a Nb(3)I(i)F(i)(3)F(a)(8)L(a) unit and a NbL(6) octahedron (tetragonal, space group I4/m, a = 13.8638(3) A, c = 8.9183(2) A, V = 1714.14(7) A(3), Z = 8). Two crystallographic positions (noted L5 and L6) are randomly occupied by fluorine and oxygen with two different F:O occupancies. These L ligands build an octahedral site for a single niobium atom, located between the units. The four L5 ligands of the NbL(6) octahedron are shared with four Nb(3) cluster units, while the two other L6 ligands are terminal. The Nb(3) cluster is face-capped by one iodine and edge-bridged by three fluorine ligands. Two of the three niobium atoms constituting the cluster are bonded to three additional apical fluorine ligands, while the third one is bonded to two fluorines and one L5 ligand. The Nb(3) cluster is linked to six adjacent ones via all the apical fluorine ligands. The developed formula of the unit is therefore Nb(3)I(i)F(i)(3)F(a)(-)(a)(8/2)L(a) according to the Sch?fer and Schnering notation. The oxidation state of the single niobium and the random distribution of fluorine and oxygen on the two L sites will be discussed on the basis of structural analysis, the bond valence method, and IR and EPR measurements. The structural results will be compared to those of previously reported niobium compounds containing NbF(6) or Nb(F,O)(6) octahedra.     

Enols of amides. The effect of fluorine substituents in the ester groups of dicarboalkoxyanilidomethanes on the enol/amide and E-enol/Z-enol ratios. A multinuclei NMR study.

Condensation of phenyl isocyanate substituted by 4-MeO, 4-Me, 4-H, 4-Br, and 2,4-(MeO)(2) with esters CH(2)(CO(2)R)CO(2)R', R = CH(2)CF(3), R' = CH(3), CH(2)CF(3), CH(CF(3))(2), or R = CH(3), R' = CH(CF(3))(2) gave 17 "amides" ArNHCOCH(CO(2)R)CO(2)R' containing three, six, or nine fluorines in the ester groups. X-ray crystallography of six of them revealed that compounds with > or =6 fluorine atoms exist in the solid state as the enols of amides ArNHC(OH)=C(CO(2)R)CO(2)R' whereas the ester with R = R' = CH(3) was shown previously to have the amide structure. In the solid enols, the OH is cis and hydrogen bonded to the better electron-donating (i.e., with fewer fluorine atoms) ester group. X-ray diffraction could not be obtained for compounds with only three fluorine atoms, i.e., R = CH(2)CF(3), R' = CH(3) but the (13)C CP-MAS spectra indicate that they have the amide structure in the solid state, whereas esters with six and nine fluorine atoms display spectra assigned to the enols. The solid enols show unsymmetrical hydrogen bonds and the expected features of push-pull alkenes, e.g., long C(alpha)=C(beta) bonds. The structure in solution depends on the number of fluorine atoms and the solvent, but only slightly on the substituents. The symmetrical systems (R = R' = CH(2)CF(3)) show signals for the amide and the enol, but all systems with R not equal R' displayed signals for the amide and for two enols, presumably the E- and Z-isomers. The [Enol I]/[Enol II] ratio is 1.6-2.9 when R = CH(2)CF(3), R' = CH(3), CH(CF(3))(2) and 4.5-5.3 when R = CH(3), R' = CH(CF(3))(2). The most abundant enol display a lower field delta(OH) and a higher field delta(NH) and assigned the E-structure with a stronger O-H.O=C(OR) hydrogen bond than in the Z-isomer. delta(OH) and delta(NH) values are nearly the same for all systems with the same cis CO(2)R group. The [Enols]/[Amide] ratio in various solvents follows the order CCl(4) > CDCl(3) > CD(3)CN > DMSO-d(6). The enols always predominate in CCl(4) and the amide is the exclusive isomer in DMSO-d(6) and the major one in CD(3)CN. In CDCl(3) the major tautomer depends on the number of fluorines. For example, in CDCl(3,) for Ar = Ph, the % enol (K(Enol)) is 35% (0.54) for R = CH(2)CF(3,) R' = CH(3), 87% (6.7) for R = R' = CH(2)CF(3), 79% (3.8) for R = CH(3), R' = CH(CF(3))(2) and 100% (> or =50) for R = CH(2)CF(3), R' = CH(CF(3))(2). (17)O and (15)N NMR spectra measured for nine of the enols are consistent with the suggested assignments. The data indicate the importance of electron withdrawal at C(beta), of intramolecular hydrogen bonding, and of low polarity solvents in stabilizing the enols. The enols of amides should no longer be regarded as esoteric species.     

Neue Suboxid-Cluster [O5Ba18] in den Kristallstrukturen von Ba21M2O5 (M = Si,Ge)

Novel Suboxide Clusters [O₅Ba₁₈] in the Crystal Structures of Ba₂₁M₂O₅ (M = Si, Ge) The compounds Ba₂₁M₂O₅ (M = Si, Ge) crystallize in the cubic system with space group Fd3m, lattice constants 2 038.3(10) pm (Si), 2 039.8(9) pm (Ge) resp. and Z = 8. The crystal structure contains isolated Si/Ge atoms coordinated by barium atoms in an icosahedral arrangement. The oxygen atoms are situated in the centers of barium octahedra, four of which share common faces with an additional central octahedron. The novel clusters [O₅Ba₁₈] in principal are related to those in the crystal structures of the binary Cs/Rb suboxides.     

Strong intramolecular Si-N interactions in the chlorosilanes Cl3-nHnSiOCH2CH2NMe2 (n = 1-3)

The compounds Cl 3SiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 1) and Cl 2HSiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 2) were prepared by reactions of lithium 2-(dimethylamino)ethanolate with SiCl 4 and HSiCl 3. The analogous reaction with H 2SiCl 2 gave ClH 2SiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 3), but only in a mixture with Cl 2HSiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 2), from which it could not be separated. All compounds were characterized by IR and NMR ( (1)H, (13)C, (29)Si) spectroscopy, 1 and 2 by elemental analyses and by determination of their crystal structures. Cl 3SiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 1) and Cl 2HSiOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 ( 2) crystallize as monomeric ring compounds with pentacoordinate silicon atoms participating in intramolecular Si-N bonds [2.060(2) A ( 1), 2.037(2) A ( 2)]. The dative bonds in 1 and 2 between the silicon and nitrogen atoms could also be proven to exist at low temperatures in solution in (1)H, (29)Si-HMBC-NMR experiments by detection of the scalar coupling between the (29)Si and the protons of the NCH 2 and NCH 3 groups. A function describing the chemical shift delta exp (29)Si dependent on the chemical shifts of the individual equilibrium components, the temperature, and the free enthalpy of reaction was worked out and fitted to the experimental VT-NMR data of 1 and 2. This provided values of the free reaction enthalpies of Delta G = -28.8 +/- 3.9 kJ x mol (-1) for 1 and Delta G = -22.3 +/- 0.4 kJ x mol (-1) for 2 and estimates for the chemical shifts of open-chain (index o) and ring conformers (index r) for 1 of delta r = -94 +/- 2 ppm and delta o = -36 +/- 5 ppm and for 2 of delta r = -82 +/- 1 ppm and delta o = -33 +/- 4 ppm. The value of delta r for 1 is very close to that obtained from a solid-state (29)Si MAS NMR spectrum. Quantumchemical calculations (up to MP2/TZVPP) gave largely differing geometries for 1 (with a Si...N distance of 3.072 A), but well reproduced the geometry of 2. These differences are due to Cl...H and Cl...C repulsions and solid state effects, which can be modeled by conductor-like screening model calculations and also rationalized in terms of the topology of the electron density, which was analyzed in terms of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules.     

Structure of Barium Tetrafluorborate Ba2（BF4）4

The title compound Ba2 (BF4)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic spacegroup P21/n with crystallographic parameters: a = 8. 339 (3), b = 16. 530 (7), c =10. 212(4) A, V=1348. 7 A3, β= 106. 64(3)°, Z=4, Dc=3. 06 g/cm3, F(000)=1104, μ=5. 98 mm-1, (MoKa) =0. 71069, M= 621. 90. Least-squares refinementaffords the final residuals R=0. 0639 and Rw=0. 0676 for 2841 observed reflections (I>3(I)). The structure consists of columns of BF4 groups, which parallel to the b direction. All columns are linked together through Ba…F bonds, Both the two crystallographically different barium atoms are nine-coordinated by a distorted tri-capped prismof fluorine atoms from the nearest six BF4 tetrahedrons. There are two types of fluorineatoms, one connecting one barium atom and the other connecting two barium atoms.Each BF4 tetrahedron is connected to three barium atoms, so it (tetrahedron) can beviewed as unidentate ligand and bidentate ligand at the same time.     

Syntheses and characterization of some mixed Te/Se polychalcogenide anions [Te(m)Se(n)]2-

Several mixed Te/Se polychalcogenide anions [Te(m)Se(n)](2-) were synthesized at 293 K by reactions between Te(n)(2-)and Se(n)(2-) anions in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) in the presence of different-size ammonium or phosphonium cations, in some cases in the presence of metal species. The structures of these anions were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The crystal structures of [NEt(4)](2)[Te(3)Se(6)] (1) and [NEt(4)](2)[Te(3)Se(7)] (2) consist, respectively, of one-dimensional infinite 1(infinity)[Te(3)Se(6)(2-)] and 1(infinity)[Te(3)Se(7)(2-)] anionic chains separated by NEt(4)(+) cations. In compound 1, each chain comprises Te(3)Se(5) eight-membered rings bridged by Se atoms. The Te(3)Se(5) ring has an "open book" conformation. The NMR spectrum of a DMF solution of [NEt(4)](2)[Te(3)Se(6)] crystals at 223 K shows (77)Se resonances at delta = 290, 349, and 771 ppm and a single (125)Te resonance at delta = 944.7 ppm. In compound 2, each chain comprises Te(3)Se(6) five- and six-membered rings bridged by Se atoms. The Te(3)Se(6) ring can be regarded as an inorganic analogue of bicyclononane. The anion of [PPh(4)](2)[Te(2)Se(2)] (4) contains a Se-Te-Te-Se chain with the terminal Se atoms trans to one another. The new compounds [PPN](2)[TeSe(10)] (3), [NMe(4)](2)[TeSe(3)].DMF (5), and [NEt(4)](2)[TeSe(3)] (6) contain known anions.     

Natural abundance 43Ca solid-state NMR characterisation of hydroxyapatite: identification of the two calcium sites

Natural abundance (43)Ca solid-state NMR of hydroxyapatite (Ca(10)(PO(4))(6)(OH)(2)) was performed at three different fields (8.45, 14.1 and 18.8 T). The two crystallographically distinct calcium sites of the apatite structure were spectroscopically resolved at 18.8 T. The (43)Ca NMR interaction parameters (delta(iso), C(Q) and eta(Q)) of each site were determined by multiple magnetic-field simulations. The peaks with delta(iso) = 11.2 +/- 0.8 and - 1.8 +/- 0.8 ppm, both with C(Q) = 2.6 +/- 0.4 MHz, were assigned to the Ca(II) and Ca(I) sites, respectively, on the basis of their relative intensities.     

Structured water in partially dehydrated yeast cells and at partially hydrophobized fumed silica surface

Nonfreezable water structured due to interaction with endocellular objects in yeast cells (endocellular water) or with partially hydrophobic fumed silica (interfacial water) was studied by means of (1)H NMR spectroscopy with layer-by-layer freezing-out of bulk water and quantum chemical methods applied to water clusters in the gas and liquid (chloroform and cyclohexene) phases and adsorbed on silylated silica. Variation in cell hydration as well as in amount of water adsorbed on modified fumed silica leads to changes in the ratio between contributions of two water states characterized by NMR chemical shifts at delta(H)=1.1-1.7 and 4-5 ppm. Lowering of hydration and temperature results in an enhancement of the first signal, and the opposite result is observed for the second signal. These effects may be explained by structured water distribution in the form of relatively large nanodroplets (delta(H)=4-5 ppm is close to that for bulk water) and small clusters of the 2D structure, in which the fraction of hydrogen atoms out of the hydrogen bonds (delta(H)=1.1-1.7 ppm) is larger than that in nanodroplets.     

A solid-state nitrogen-15 NMR and ab initio study of nitrobenzenes

Insight into the unexpectedly small range of isotropic nitrogen chemical shifts in nitrobenzene derivatives is gained through measurements of the chemical shift (CS) tensor by solid-state NMR experiments and ab initio molecular orbital (MO) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The principal components, delta(ii), of the (15)N CS tensors have been measured for nitrobenzene, 4-nitroaniline, 4-nitrotoluene, 4-nitroanisole, 4-nitroacetophenone, nitromesitylene, and 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylnitrobenzene. No obvious correlations of the delta(ii) values with traditional reactivity parameters were observed. The CS tensor components change significantly for the para-substituted nitrobenzenes, but these variations nearly cancel to yield isotropic shifts that fall in a range of only 3 ppm. Ab initio calculations of the delta(ii) values at the HF level are in poor agreement with the experimental values, whereas MP2 calculations and DFT calculations employing the B3LYP functional are in better agreement with experiment. The calculated (B3LYP/6-311G) delta(ii) values follow a trend in which delta(11) and delta(33) increase while delta(22) decreases with the accepted electron withdrawing ability of the para substituent. These changes tend to cancel yielding a variation in delta(iso) of only 4 ppm. These calculations indicate that the CS tensor has the same orientation as the carbon CS tensor in the isoelectronic benzoate anion: delta(11) bisects the O-N-O angle, delta(33) is perpendicular to the NO(2) plane, and delta(22) is in the NO(2) plane and perpendicular to delta(11).     

An insight into the aromaticity of fullerene anions: experimental evidence for diamagnetic ring currents in the five-membered rings of C(60)(6-) and C(70)(6-)

Reduction of the two "closed" [6,6] methanofullerenes, [6,6]C(61)H(2) (1) and [6,6]C(71)H(2) (5), to the corresponding hexaanions with lithium metal causes the bridgehead-bridgehead bonds to open, at least partially, and this change gives rise to diamagnetic ring currents in the resulting homoconjugated six-membered rings (6-MRs). These new ring currents shield the overlying hydrogen atoms on the methylene bridge and induce upfield shifts of 1.60 and 0.11 ppm in their (1)H NMR resonances, respectively. Analogous reduction of the already "open" [5,6]methanofullerenes, [5,6]C(61)H(2) (2) and [5,6]C(71)H(2) (3 and 4), only slightly enhances the shielding of the hydrogen atoms over the homoconjugated 6-MRs (upfield shifts of 0.13, 0.68, and 0.14 ppm, respectively) but leads to exceptionally strong diamagnetic ring currents in the homoconjugated five- membered rings (5-MRs), as evidenced by dramatic shielding of the hydrogen atoms situated over them (upfield shift of 5.01, 6.78, and 1.63 ppm, respectively). The strongest shielding is seen for the hydrogen atom sitting over the 5-MR at the pole of C(71)H(2)(6)(-) (delta = -0.255 ppm) indicating that the excess charge density is concentrated at the poles.     

Preparation of fluorine compounds of groups 13 and 14: a study case for the diagonal relationship of aluminum and germanium

The synthesis of carbaalanes of composition [(AlF)₆(AlNMe₃)₂(CR)₆] containing terminal fluorine atoms is described. The clusters have in common that the central core consists of eight aluminum and six carbon atoms. Six of the eight aluminum atoms are bearing six terminal fluorine atoms. The fluorination of (t-BuNCH₂AlH)₄ results in the formation of the aggregate (t-BuNCH₂AlF)₄. In group 14, the fluorine containing unsaturated compounds LGeF, LGeS(F), LGeSe(F), and LGeNSiMe₃(F) were prepared (LHC(CMeNAr)₂), Ar = 2,6-iPr₂C₆H₃ and Ar = 2,6-Me₂(C₆H₃)).     

Synthesis, characterization, and electronic structure of Ba5In4Bi5: an acentric and one-electron deficient phase

The new ternary phase Ba(5)In(4)Bi(5) was synthesized by direct reaction of the corresponding elements at high temperature. It crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric space group and represents a new structure type (tetragonal, P4nc with a=10.620(2) and c=9.009(2) A, Z=2). The structure is built of interconnected heteroatomic clusters of In(4)Bi(5), square pyramids with In(4)-bases and four exo-bonded bismuth atoms (bond to the In atoms). According to Wade's rule the compound is electron-deficient with one electron per cluster, that is, [In(4)Bi(5)](10-) instead of the expected [In(4)Bi(5)](11-) for a closed-shell species. The clusters are discussed also in light of the known heteroatomic deltahedral clusters with the same composition but different charge, [In(4)Bi(5)](3-). Band structure calculations on the new compound suggest substantial participation of barium in the overall bonding of the structure that "accounts" for the electron shortage     

An ab initio quantum chemical investigation of 43Ca NMR interaction parameters for the Ca2+ sites in organic complexes and in metalloproteins

We have carried out an extensive ab initio quantum chemical (QC)43Ca NMR study on a series of Ca-O organic compounds and three different Ca-bound proteins and found that the HF/6-31G* level of function can reliably predict 43Ca NMR interaction parameters (delta(iso) and chi(q)), especially for organic solids. This QC study finds correlations between Ca-O bond environment (mean distance and coordination number) and delta(iso)(43Ca). Although relatively small values of chi(q)(43Ca) are found for Ca-O organic compounds with a coordination number between 6 and 10, the QC shows that chi(q)(43Ca) is sensitive to the Ca-O coordination geometry of the Ca2+ sites in metalloproteins--a potentially important observation. An application of such ab initio QC 43Ca NMR studies is in characterizing the Ca-O bonding environment around target Ca2+ sites. As an example, we propose a new potential analytical approach using the absolute (43)Ca chemical shielding constant to investigate the hydration shell of Ca2+ in a dilute CaCl2 aqueous solution. Furthermore, by adopting a NMR methodology similar to that reported in Wong et al. Chem. Phys. Lett. 2006, 427, 201, natural abundance 43Ca MAS NMR spectra of Ca(L-glutamate)(2) x 4H2O were recorded, and delta(iso)(43Ca) and the quadrupolar parameter (Pq) were estimated to be 6.6 ppm and 0.8 MHz, respectively.

Rhodium-103 NMR of [Rh(X)(PPh3)3] [X = Cl, N3, NCO, NCS, N(CN)2, NCBPh3, CNBPh3, CN] and derivatives containing CO, isocyanide, pyridine, H2 and O2. Ligand, solvent and temperature effects

Rhodium-103 chemical shifts are reported for 62 compounds, namely [Rh(X)(PPh3)3] [X = Cl, N3, NCO, NCS, N(CN)2, NCBPh3, CNBPh3, CN] and derivatives formed by replacement of a phosphine by CO, xylyl isocyanide (XNC) and pyridine and/or by oxidative addition of H2 or O2 to give trans-[Rh(X)(PPh3)2(CO)] (delta in the range -816 to -368 ppm) trans-[Rh(X)(PPh3)2(XNC)] (delta -817 to -250 ppm), cis-[Rh(X)(PPh3)2(py)] (the trans isomer is formed with X = CN, CNBPh3) (delta -233 to 170 ppm), [Rh(X)(H)2(PPh3)3] (delta -611 to 119), trans-[Rh(X)(H)2(PPh3)2(py)] (delta -30 to 566 ppm), [Rh(X)(O2)(PPh3)3] (delta 1393 to 3273 ppm) and cis-[Rh(X)(O2)(PPh3)2(py)] (delta 1949 to 3374 ppm). For the majority of these compounds data were obtained from solutions in chloroform and in toluene at temperatures of 247 and 300 K; for [Rh(X)(PPh3)3] (delta -562 to -4 ppm) data are reported at a number of temperatures in the range 195-300 K for solutions in chloroform, toluene and dichloromethane and at 300 K for solutions in DMSO. The expected trend to lower delta(103Rh) with decreasing temperature (vibrational shielding) is observed for the dichloromethane data, but data from solutions {of [Rh(X)(PPh3)3]} in chloroform and toluene show a number of features which diverge from this pattern, i.e. shifts to higher delta are found to accompany a decrease in temperature, most noticeably where X = CN and Cl [on changing the solvent from dichloromethane to chloroform changes in delta(103Rh) of up to 172 ppm are observed]. These results are interpreted in terms of a hydrogen-bonded interaction with the solvent that is enhanced by the presence of a polarizable ligand (CN, Cl). With a ligand (O2CCF3) that is only weakly polarizable the solvent dependence of delta(103Rh) is minimal.

On the identification of oxygen and fluorine atoms in disordered inorganic oxyfluoride compounds

It is considered practically impossible to differentiate between oxygen and fluorine atoms by X-ray diffraction in disordered structures of oxyfluoride compounds due to the similarity of their ionic radii and diffusion factors. Indeed, many transition metal oxyfluoride compounds containing polar pseudo-octahedral MO_xF_6–x (x = 1-3) anions form crystal structures without any fluorine-oxygen (F/O) ordering owing to a large number of local anion configurations. Because of this static disorder, it is impossible to determine the positions of O and F atoms and find the real geometry of the polyhedron. However, this becomes possible in the case of dynamic disorder of oxyfluoride anions when the central atom is displaced from the center of the octahedron toward a vertex, edge, or face (depending on the number of oxygen atoms in the polyhedron), which enables the identification of O and F atoms owing to inherent differences between M–O and M–F bonding. On cooling, such compounds undergo phase transitions of the order–disorder type with substantial changes in the entropy. The examples of static and dynamic orientational disorder in oxyfluoride compounds of d⁰ transition metals are given.
