Physical and Chemical Properties | Antimony pentafluoride, chemical formula sbf5. Molecular weight 216.74. Colorless thick oily liquid. In the Air smoke, irritation, strong hygroscopicity. Melting point of 7 deg C, boiling point of 149.5 deg C, the relative density of 2.9925. Soluble in water, potassium fluoride solution. Chemical reaction ability is very strong, and hydrofluoric acid and fluorosulfonic acid form a super acid, acid increased significantly. Strong oxidation. Various adducts and molecular compounds are readily generated. Can corrode skin, can also corrode glass, but almost no corrosion of quartz, platinum and aluminum and stainless steel. It has a weak corrosion effect on copper and lead. Corrosion is enhanced when hydrogen fluoride impurity is contained. Preparation Method: can be prepared by antimony or antimony trifluoride and fluorine gas direct reaction, or from antimony pentachloride or antimony trifluoro dichloride and hydrogen fluoride reaction. Purposes: for organic synthesis and system super acid. |

Use | HF/SbF5 is an excellent medium for the preparation of hypoalkylene oxide salts. |
production method | to an aluminum reactor equipped with a gas inlet tube, a reflux condenser, and a thermowell, add 600g of antimony pentachloride, the temperature of the reflux condenser was maintained at -45 °c. While maintaining the temperature of the reaction mixture at 10 to 35 ° C., 360g of hydrogen fluoride gas was introduced from the gas introduction pipe within 2 to 3 hours. Thereafter, the mixture was heated to 60 to 70 ° C. Until the generation of hydrogen chloride was stopped, and then cooled to 40 ° C. As shown in Fig. The temperature of the reflux condenser was then raised to 12-25 °c to distil off Unreacted hydrogen fluoride. Finally, the reactor was heated to 140-150 °c to remove the hydrogen fluoride. The residue in the reactor at this time was crude antimony pentafluoride and contained a small amount of antimony (v) chlorofluoride as an impurity. The crude antimony pentafluoride was fractionated in an aluminum apparatus and stored in an aluminum container in a closed manner. |
