Selenoyl fluoride is theinorganic compound with the formula SeO2F2. It is a colorless, corrosive gas.[2]
Structure
[edit]The molecule has a distorted tetrahedral shape with the following bond angles: O-Se-O = 126.2°, O-Se-F = 108.0°. and F-Se-F = 94.1°.[3] The Se-F bond length is 1.685 Å and the selenium to oxygen distancesare 1.575 Å.[4]
Formation
[edit]Selenoyl fluoride can be produced by the action of warm fluorosulfonic acid on selenic acid:[2]
- HSO3F + H2SeO4 → H2O + SeO2F2 + H2SO4
Barium selenate can be used in place of the selenic acid.[5] Treatment of SeO3 with SeF4 give this gas along with other oxyfluorides.
Reactions
[edit]Selenoyl fluoride is more reactive than its lighter homologue sulfuryl fluoride. It hydrolyzes more easily. It is a strong oxidant. It reacts violently with ammonia, for example. It attacks glass.[2]
Selenoyl fluoride reacte with xenon difluoride to give FXeOSeF5.[6]
