Caesium hexafluorocuprate(IV)
Caesium hexafluorocuprate is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cs
2CuF
6. It is a red solid that degrades upon contact with water. It was first prepared be heating CsCuCl
3 and caesium fluoride at 410°C under 350 atmospheres of fluorine:[2]
- 2 CsCuCl3 + 2 CsF + 5 F2 → 2 Cs2CuF6 + 3 Cl2
