Manganese trioxide fluoride is an inorganic compound with the formula MnO
3F. A green diamagnetic liquid, the compound has no applications, but it is of some academic interest as a rare example of a metal trioxide fluoride.
The compound was detected in the 1880s but was only purified and crystallized much more recently.[1] It can be prepared by fluorosulfuric acid and potassium permanganate:
MnO
3F crystallizes as a monomer, as confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The molecules are tetrahedral with Mn-O and Mn-F distances of 1.59 and 1.72 Å, respectively.
In contrast with MnO
3F, TcO
3F and ReO
3F have more complex structures as solids. The Re compound crystallizes as chains or rings consisting of fluoride-bridge octahedra. TcO
3F crystallizes as dimers with fluoride bridges.[2] The rhenium compound also forms stable adducts with Lewis bases,[3] whereas the MnO
3F is unstable in the presence of Lewis bases.
