Chemical compound

Vanadium dioxide fluoride is the inorganic compound with the formula VO₂F. It is an orange diamagnetic solid. The compound adopts the same structure as iron(III) fluoride, with octahedral metal centers and doubly bridging oxide and fluoride ligands. It is prepared by the reaction of vanadium pentoxide and vanadium(V) oxytrifluoride:

V₂O₅ + VOF₃ → 3VO₂F

An alternative synthesis using hexamethyldisiloxane:

(CH₃)₃SiOSi(CH₃)₃ + VOF₃ → VO₂F + 2 (CH₃)₃SiF

Reactions

Like some other transition metal oxyfluorides, VO₂F reacts with Lewis bases to give 1:2 adducts. One example is the yellow bis(pyridine) derivative VO₂F(NC₅H₅)₂.

VO₂F has attracted some interest as a cathode in batteries.
