Chemical compound
Chromium pentafluoride is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula CrF5.[3] It is a red volatile solid that melts at 34 °C.[1] It is the highest known chromium fluoride, since the hypothetical chromium hexafluoride has not yet been synthesized.[4]
Chromium pentafluoride is one of the products of the action of fluorine on a mixture of potassium and chromic chlorides.[5]
In terms of its structure, the compound is a one-dimensional coordination polymer. Each Cr(V) center has octahedral molecular geometry.[2] It has the same crystal structure as vanadium pentafluoride.[6]
Chromium pentafluoride is strongly oxidizing, able to fluorinate the noble gas xenon and oxidize dioxygen to dioxygenyl.[2] Due to this property, it decomposes readily in the presence of reducing agents, and easily hydrolyses to chromium(III) and chromium(VI).[7]
