Three new compounds Ca(HF₂)₂, Ba₄F₄(HF₂)(PF₆)₃ and Pb₂F₂(HF₂)(PF₆) were obtained in the system metal(II) fluoride and anhydrous HF (aHF) acidified with excessive PF₅. The obtained polymeric solids are slightly soluble in aHF and they crystallize out of their aHF solutions. Ca(HF₂)₂ was prepared by simply dissolving CaF₂ in a neutral aHF. It represents the second known compound with homoleptic HF environment of the central atom besides Ba(H₃F₄)₂. The compounds Ba₄F₄(HF₂)(PF₆)₃ and Pb₂F₂(HF₂)(PF₆) represent two additional examples of the formation of a polymeric zigzag ladder or ribbon composed of metal cation and fluoride anion (MF⁺)_n besides PbF(AsF₆), the first isolated compound with such zigzag ladder. The obtained new compounds were characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction method and partly by Raman spectroscopy.

The enthalpies of interaction of (ClOF₂)₂[MnF₆](cr) and ClOF₂[BF₄](cr) with water and an aqueous solution of alkali and the enthalpies of several auxiliary processes were measured at 298.15 K on an isothermic-shell calorimeter. Based on these and literature data, the standard enthalpies of formation of (ClOF₂)₂[MnF₆](cr) and ClOF₂[BF₄](cr) at 298.15 K were calculated by two independent methods (−1643 ± 11 and −1368 ± 5 kJ/mol, respectively).

Syntheses, crystal structures and Raman spectra of Ba(BF4)(PF6), Ba(BF4)(AsF6) and Ba2(BF4)2(AsF6)(H3F4); the first examples of metal salts containing simultaneously tetrahedral BF4 and octahedral AF6 anions

In the system BaF₂/BF₃/PF₅/anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (aHF) a compound Ba(BF₄)(PF₆) was isolated and characterized by Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction on the single crystal. Ba(BF₄)(PF₆) crystallizes in a hexagonal space group with a=10.2251(4) Å, c=6.1535(4) Å, V=557.17(5) Å³ at 200 K, and Z=3. Both crystallographically independent Ba atoms possess coordination polyhedra in the shape of tri-capped trigonal prisms, which include F atoms from BF₄⁻ and PF₆⁻ anions. In the analogous system with AsF₅ instead of PF₅ the compound Ba(BF₄)(AsF₆) was isolated and characterized. It crystallizes in an orthorhombic Pnma space group with a=10.415(2) Å, b=6.325(3) Å, c=11.8297(17) Å, V=779.3(4) Å³ at 200 K, and Z=4. The coordination around Ba atom is in the shape of slightly distorted tri-capped trigonal prism which includes five F atoms from AsF₆⁻ and four F atoms from BF₄⁻ anions. When the system BaF₂/BF₃/AsF₅/aHF is made basic with an extra addition of BaF₂, the compound Ba₂(BF₄)₂(AsF₆)(H₃F₄) was obtained. It crystallizes in a hexagonal P6₃/mmc space group with a=6.8709(9) Å, c=17.327(8) Å, V=708.4(4) Å³ at 200 K, and Z=2. The barium environment in the shape of tetra-capped distorted trigonal prism involves 10 F atoms from four BF₄⁻, three AsF₆⁻ and three H₃F₄⁻ anions. All F atoms, except the central atom in H₃F₄ moiety, act as μ₂-bridges yielding a complex 3-D structural network.

Excitation of XeF* by reactions of XeF2 with Ar(3P0,2),Kr(3P2) and Xe(3P2)

The reactions of the lowest metastable states of Ar, Kr and Xe with XeF₂ were studied in a flowing afterglow apparatus; XeF emission (from D²Π_{$\text{1}\text{2}$} and B ²Π⁺ states) was observed in all cases. The total rate constants (cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1) for XeF^* formation were determined as 75 × 10^?11 ? Xe(³P₂);64 × 10^?11 ? Kr(³P₂) and 20 × 10^?11 ? Ar(³P_0,2). The reactions of Ar(³P_0,2) and Kr(³P₂) with XeF₂ also gave ArF^* and KrF^*, respectively. Analysis of these emissions indicates that at least two different mechanisms are operative: reactive quenching by the ionic—covalent curve-crossing mechanism and excitation transfer. The Ar(³P_0,2 + XeF₂ reaction is a sufficiently strong source of XeF(D—X) emission that the main features of the XeF(D²Π_{$\text{1}\text{2}$} ? X²Σ⁺) system could be photographed and tentative assignments of these vibrational bands are given. The XeF(D → B) emission could not be observed and the ratio of the D—X versus the D—B transition probability must be > 1000 : 1.

The vaporization of DyI₃(s) was investigated in the temperature range between 833 and 1053 K by the use of Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry. The ions DyI₂⁺, DyI₃⁺, Dy₂I₄⁺, Dy₂I₅⁺, Dy₃I₇⁺, and Dy₃I₈⁺ were detected in the mass spectrum of the equilibrium vapor.

The following sublimation enthalpies at 298 K were determined for the gaseous species given in brackets: 274.8±8.2 kJ mol⁻¹ [DyI₃], 356.0±11.3 kJ mol⁻¹ [(DyI₃)₂], and 436.6±14.6 kJ mol⁻¹ [(DyI₃)₃]. The enthalpy changes of the dissociation reactions (DyI₃)₂=2 DyI₃ and (DyI₃)₃=3 DyI₃ were obtained as Δ_dH°(298)=193.3±5.6 and 390.3±13.0 kJ mol⁻¹, respectively.     

Standard molar enthalpies of formation of KCdCl3 and K4CdCl6 by high-temperature drop calorimetry

Enthalpies of the synthesis reactions of the two compounds KCdCl₃(cr) and K₄CdCl₆(cr) from KCl(cr) and CdCl₂(cr) have been measured by drop calorimetry of solid samples of KCl, CdCl₂, KCdCl₃, and K₄CdCl₆ into melted mixtures of KCl and CdCl₂. For the two reactions: (1), CdCl₂(cr)+KCl(cr) = KCdCl₃(cr); and (2), CdCl₂(cr)+4KCl(cr) = K₄CdCl₆(cr), the experiments lead to the two standard molar enthalpies of reaction at 298.15 K: Δ₁H_m^o = ?(21.7±1.0) kJ·mol^?1 and Δ₂H_m^o = ?(39.0±3.8) kJ·mol^?1. These values are not in good agreement with those of previous workers.

Substitution in barium-fluoride apatite: The crystal structures of Ba10(PO4)6F2, Ba6La2Na2(PO4)6F2 and Ba4Nd3Na3(PO4)6F2

The crystal structures of the apatites Ba₁₀(PO₄)₆F₂(I), Ba₆La₂Na₂(PO₄)₆F₂(II) and Ba₄Nd₃Na₃(PO₄)₆F₂ (III) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. All three compounds crystallize in a hexagonal apatite-like structure. The unit cells and space groups are: I, a = 10.153(2), c = 7.733(1)Å, $\text{P6}{}_3\text{m}\text{; a = 9.9392(4), c = 7.4419(5)}$Å, $\text{P}\text{6}$; III, a = 9.786(2), c = 7.281(1)Å, $\text{P}\text{3}$. The structures were refined by normal full-matrix crystallographic least squares techniques. The final values of the refinement indicators R_w and R are: I, R_w = 0.026, R = 0.027, 613 observed reflections; II, R_w = 0.081, R = 0.074, 579 observed reflections; III, R_w = 0.062, R = 0.044, 1262 observed reflections.In I, the Ba(1) atoms located in columns on threefold axes, are coordinated to nine oxygen atoms; the Ba(2) sites form triangles about the F site and are coordinated to six oxygen atoms and one fluoride ion. The fluoride ions are statistically displaced ～0.25 Å from the Ba(2) triangles. This displacement of the F ions is analogous to the displacement of OH ion in Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂.The structures of II and III contain disordered cations. In II there is disorder between La and Na in the column cation sites as well as triangle sites. In III, Nd and Na ions are ordered in the column sites, but there is disorder among Ba and the remaining Nd and Na ions in the triangle sites to give an average site population of $\text{2}\text{3}\text{Ba}\text{,}\text{1}\text{6}\text{Nd}\text{,}\text{1}\text{6}\text{Na}$. The coordination of the rare earth ions and Na ions in the ordered column sites are nine and six oxygens, respectively, in accord with the greater charge of the rare earth ions as compared with Na. The F ions in both II and III suffer from considerable disorder in position, and their locations are not precisely known.
