Abstract: | Lewis-Acid Initiated Syntheses of Xenon-Oxo Compounds – a 129Xe-NMR Study The reaction of XeF2 with B(OR)3 yield FXeOR (R: SO2CF3) and Xe(OR)2 (R: COCF3), respectively. In the second case the intermediate formation of FXeOCOCF3 is detectable. In a solution of XeF2 and BF3 · O(CH3)2 in CD3CN the cation [FXe.NCCD3]+ can be observed. The syntheses of FXeOR (R: SO2CF3, SO2C4F9) and Xe(OR)2 (R:COCF3, COC2F5) also succeed in the reaction of XeF2 with the corresponding alkali metal sulfonates and carboxylates in the presence of BF3 · O(CH3)2. Due to the 129Xe-NMR spectra the mechanism of formation and the bond types of these partly new derivatives are discussed. |
