Barium chloride fluoride is an inorganic chemical compound of barium, chlorine, and fluorine.[1] Its chemical formula is BaClF.[2][3] The compound naturally occurs as zhangpeishanite mineral of the matlockite group.[4] One of the deposits where the mineral is mined is Bayan Obo in China.[5]
Synthesis
Barium chloride fluoride can be prepared by precipitating barium chloride and ammonium fluoride in a solution.
The compound can also be obtained by melting BaF2 with BaCl2.[6]
- BaF2 + BaCl2 → 2BaFCl
Physical properties
Barium chloride fluoride forms white crystals.[7] The crystal structure of BaClF is a tetragonal distortion of that of fluoride type BaF
2.[8]
The compound is poorly soluble in water.[9]
