Manganese trioxide fluoride is an inorganic compound with the formula MnO
3
F
. 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:

KMnO
4
+ 2HF → MnO
3
F + KF + H
2
O

MnO
3
F
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
3
F
, TcO
3
F
and ReO
3
F
have more complex structures as solids. The Re compound crystallizes as chains or rings consisting of fluoride-bridge octahedra. TcO
3
F
crystallizes as dimers with fluoride bridges.[2] The rhenium compound also forms stable adducts with Lewis bases,[3] whereas the MnO
3
F
is unstable in the presence of Lewis bases.
