  2. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    In addition, several chalcogen fluorides occur which have more than one chalcogen (O 2 F 2, [91] S 2 F 10, [92] etc.). The well-characterized heavier halogens (chlorine, bromine, and iodine) all form mono-, tri-, and pentafluorides: XF, XF 3, and XF 5. Of the neutral +7 species, only iodine heptafluoride is known. [93]

    In some scenarios, artificial blood may be more convenient or safe. Because fluorocarbons do not normally mix with water, they must be mixed into emulsions (small droplets of perfluorocarbon suspended in water) in order to be used as blood. [29] [30] One such product, Oxycyte, has been through initial clinical trials. [31] [32]

  4. Chlorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine

    As another difference, chlorine has a significant chemistry in positive oxidation states while fluorine does not. Chlorination often leads to higher oxidation states than bromination or iodination but lower oxidation states than fluorination. Chlorine tends to react with compounds including M–M, M–H, or M–C bonds to form M–Cl bonds. [40]

  5. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide-containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers, drugs. [1] This kind of conversion is in fact so common that a comprehensive overview is challenging.

  6. Heterogeneous water oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_Water_Oxidation

    Under acidic conditions water binds to the surface with the irreversible removal of one electron and one proton to form a platinum hydroxide. [4] In an alkaline solution a reversible binding of hydroxide ion coupled to a one electron oxidation is thought to precede a turnover-limiting electrochemical step involving the removal of one proton and ...

  7. Electrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolysis

    Oxidation of ions or neutral molecules occurs at the anode. For example, it is possible to oxidize ferrous ions to ferric ions at the anode: Fe 2+ (aq) → Fe 3+ (aq) + e −. Reduction of ions or neutral molecules occurs at the cathode. It is possible to reduce ferricyanide ions to ferrocyanide ions at the cathode: Fe(CN) 3-6 + e − → Fe(CN ...

  8. Chlorine oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_oxide

    Chlorine and oxygen can bond in a number of ways: chlorine monoxide radical, ClO•, chlorine (II) oxide radical; chloroperoxyl radical, ClOO•, chlorine (II) peroxide radical; chlorine dioxide, ClO 2, chlorine (IV) oxide; chlorine trioxide radical, ClO 3 •, chlorine (VI) oxide radical; chlorine tetroxide radical, ClO 4 •, chlorine (VII ...

  9. Perchloryl fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchloryl_fluoride

    Perchloryl fluoride is produced primarily by the fluorination of perchlorates. The initial syntheses in the early 1950s used fluorine gas or fluorides and anodic oxidation as the fluorinating agents, but these give explosive gaseous mixtures. [8] A common fluorinator in modern syntheses is antimony pentafluoride: [3]: 372–373 ClO − 4 + 3 HF ...
