Abstract
The fluorination of ruthenium tetroxide RuO4 was attempted by using either fluorine or krypton difluoride KrF2 in HF solution. Of the two fluorinating agents, only KrF2 was found to be powerful enough to react with RuO4 and to transform it into ruthenium oxide tetrafluoride RuOF4. This oxide fluoride of ruthenium VI was characterized by elemental analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and infrared absorption spectroscopy. Keywords: ruthenium tetroxide, ruthenium oxide tetrafluoride, krypton difluoride, fluorination.
