How is Molybdenum(6+) hexafluoride (CAS: 7783-77-9) typically synthesized?
Answer
Molybdenum(6+) hexafluoride (CAS: 7783-77-9) is typically synthesized by reacting molybdenum trioxide (MoO₃) with hydrogen fluoride (HF) under anhydrous conditions. The reaction is exothermic and must be carefully controlled to avoid the formation of other hexafluoride compounds. The yield is usually high, and the selectivity for Molybdenum(6+) hexafluoride is good.
