Krypton difluoride, KrF 2 is a chemical compound of krypton and fluorine. It was the first compound of krypton discovered. [2] It is a volatile, colourless solid at room temperature. The structure of the KrF 2 molecule is linear, with Kr−F distances of 188.9 pm. It reacts with strong Lewis acids to form salts of the KrF + and Kr 2 F + 3 ...
Its lighter neighbor, krypton also forms well-characterized compounds, e.g., krypton difluoride. Krypton tetrafluoride was reported in 1963, [104] but was subsequently shown to be a mistaken identification; the compound seems to be very hard to synthesize now (although even the hexafluoride may exist). [105]
Krypton hexafluoride is an inorganic chemical compound of krypton and fluorine with the chemical formula KrF 6. It is still a hypothetical compound . [ 1 ] Calculations indicate it is unstable.

Compounds containing oxygen in other oxidation states are very uncommon: − 1 ⁄ 2 (superoxides), − 1 ⁄ 3 , 0 (elemental, hypofluorous acid), + 1 ⁄ 2 , +1 (dioxygen difluoride), and +2 (oxygen difluoride). Oxygen is reactive and will form oxides with all other elements except the noble gases helium, neon, argon and krypton. [1]
It can be prepared by fluorination of chromyl fluoride with krypton difluoride: [3] CrO 2 F 2 + KrF 2 → CrOF 4 + 0.5 O 2 + Kr. The compound serves as a weak Lewis base with noble gas difluorides. [4] It also binds fluoride to give the pentafluoride.
Difluorides are chemical compounds with two fluorine atoms per molecule (or per formula unit). Metal difluorides are all ionic. Despite being highly ionic, the alkaline earth metal difluorides generally have extremely high lattice stability and are thus insoluble in water. The exception is beryllium difluoride.
From the standpoint of chemistry, the noble gases may be divided into two groups: [citation needed] the relatively reactive krypton (ionisation energy 14.0 eV), xenon (12.1 eV), and radon (10.7 eV) on one side, and the very unreactive argon (15.8 eV), neon (21.6 eV), and helium (24.6 eV) on the other.
