Abstract

(XeF6)4(HF2)2F2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four hydrofluoric acid molecules, four hydrogen fluoride hydrogen fluoride molecules, and four XeF6 clusters. In each XeF6 cluster, there are two inequivalent Xe sites. In the first Xe site, Xe is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven F atoms. There are a spread of Xe–F bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.51 Å. In the second Xe site, Xe is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven F atoms. There are a spread of Xe–F bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.48 Å. There are twelve inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the second F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the third F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the fourth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the fifth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the sixth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the seventh F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the eighth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the ninth F site, F is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Xe atoms. In the tenth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the eleventh F site, F is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Xe atoms. In the twelfth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom.
