| Abstract: | The molecular structure of tungsten oxytetrafluoride has been studied in the gas phase by electron diffraction. A square pyramidal model with molecular symmetryC4v, as indicated by vibrational spectroscopy, gives a good fit to the experimental data. Least squares refinement on the molecular intensity curves gives the following results for the principal geometrical parameters (uncertainties in parentheses are 2σ):ra(W=O) = 1.666 (0.007)Å,ra(W-F)= 1.847 (0.002)Å, ∠OWF = 104.8 (0.6)°, ∠FWF = 86.2(0.3)°. |
