Plutonyl fluoride is an inorganic compound of plutonium, oxygen, and fluorine with the chemical formula PuO
2F
2. It was initially isolated by Alenchikova et al. in 1961.[1]
Synthesis
Plutonyl fluoride can be obtained by slowly hydrolysing PuF
6.[2][3]
- PuF
6 (g) + 2 H
2O (g) → PuO
2F
2 (s) + 4 HF (g)
- PuF
Physical properties
Plutonyl fluoride is soluble in water; the solutions have a pink-to-rose color.[4][5]
Chemical properties
In hydrofluoric acid solution, PuO
2F
2 forms a hydrate, PuO
2F
2 · H2O, and a solid incorporating HF, PuO
2F
2 · HF · 4H2O.[6]
