What is MERCURY(II) FLUORIDE?
Chemical properties
yellow to pink powder
The Uses of MERCURY(II) FLUORIDE
Mercury(II) fluoride is a selective fluorination agent. Organic compounds, such as triphenylacetic acid, triphenyl ethylene, and triethyl phosphite can be selectively fluorinated in dimethylsulfoxide/HgF 2 solutions under UV-visible illumination. CF2I2 was synthesized by fluorination of tetraiodomethane with mercury(II) fluoride and purified.
The Uses of MERCURY(II) FLUORIDE
Synthesis of organic fluorine compounds.
Preparation
Mercury(II) fluoride, HgF2, is most commonly prepared through the reaction of mercury(II) oxide with hydrogen
fluoride.
HgO + 2HF→HgF2 + H2O
It can also be produced through the fluorination of mercury(II) chloride.
HgCl2 + F2→HgF2 + Cl2
Hazard
Highly toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption; strong irritant.
