High temperature chemistry of the gaseous ruthenium fluorides

Mass spectrometry was used to identify and to thermochemically characterize the gaseous fluorides RuF4, RuF3, RuF2, and RuF generated by fluorination of Ru powder in a platinum effusion cell.Reaction enthalpies and bond dissociation energies were derived from equilibrium measurements involving these species, yielding the following results in kJ mol-1: Ddeg(F3Ru-F) = 361; Ddeg(F2Ru-F) = 339; Ddeg(FRu-F) = 464; and Ddeg(Ru-F) = 402.The results show that the + 4 oxidation state dominates the high temperature chemistry of the Ru-F system.Results are compared with the properties of the neighboring Mo-F system.
