Phosphorus pentafluoride was first prepared in 1876 by the fluorination of ] using ], which remains a favored method:<ref name=Brauer/>

Phosphorus pentafluoride can be prepared by direct combination of ] and ]:

] indicate PF<sub>5</sub> molecule has two distinct P−F bonds (axial and equatorial): P−F<sub>''ax''</sub> = 158.0 pm and P−F<sub>''eq''</sub> = 152.2 pm. Gas-phase ] analysis gives similar values: P−F<sub>''ax''</sub> = 158 pm and P−F<sub>''eq''</sub> = 153 pm. ] indicate that the PF<sub>5</sub> has ]. Thus it has two distinct types of P−F bonds (axial and equatorial): the length of an axial P−F bond is distinct from the equatorial P−F bond in the solid phase, but not the liquid or gas phases due to ].


] spectroscopy, at temperatures as low as −100 °C fails to distinguish the axial from the equatorial fluorine environments. The apparent equivalency arises from the low barrier for ] via the ], by which the axial and equatorial fluorine atoms rapidly exchange positions.

Phosphorus pentafluoride is a ]. This property is relevant to its ready hydrolysis. A well studied ] is PF<sub>5</sub> with ]. With primary and secondary amines, the adducts convert readily to dimeric amido-bridged derivatives with the formula <sub>2</sub>. A variety of complexes are known with bidentate ligands.<ref>{{cite journal|title=Neutral Six-Coordinate Phosphorus|first1=Chih Y.|last1=Wong|first2=Dietmar K.|last2=Kennepohl|first3=Ronald G.|last3=Cavell|journal=Chemical Reviews|year=1996|volume=96|issue=6 |pages=1917–1952|doi=10.1021/cr9410880|pmid=11848816}}</ref>

] (HPF<sub>6</sub>) is derived from phosphorus pentafluoride and ]. Its conjugate base, ] (PF<sub>6</sub><sup>–</sup>), is a useful ]. It is often used in ], where besides providing good ionic conductivity for the liquid electrolyte, it also passivates positive ] current collector.
