Technology Process of Molybdenum tetrafluoride

There total 3 articles about Molybdenum tetrafluoride which guide to synthetic route it. The literature collected by LookChem mainly comes from the sharing of users and the free literature resources found by Internet computing technology. We keep the original model of the professional version of literature to make it easier and faster for users to retrieve and use. At the same time, we analyze and calculate the most feasible synthesis route with the highest yield for your reference as below:

synthetic route:

Reference yield:

2Cs(1+)*[Mo6Cl8]F6(2-)=Cs2[Mo6Cl8]F6 → molybdenum tetrafluoride (23412-45-5) + MoCl2F2 + MoClF3 + cesium chloride (15690-63-8,64704-31-0,7647-17-8) + cesium fluoride (13400-13-0)

Guidance literature:

decompn. at >600°C; further products: MoCl3F and MoCl4, detn. by mass spectroscopy;

Reference yield:

oxygen (80937-33-3) + fluorine (7782-41-4) + molybdenum (7439-98-7) → molybdenum(VI) fluoride (7783-77-9) + molybdenum tetrafluoride (23412-45-5) + molybdenum(V) fluoride (13819-84-6,194303-41-8) + molybdenum pentafluoride trimer + molybdenum oxotetrafluoride (14459-59-7,52049-90-8)
