Palladium hexafluoride is an inorganic chemical compound of palladium metal and fluorine with the chemical formula PdF6.[1] It is reported to be a still hypothetical compound.[2] This is one of many palladium fluorides.

Synthesis

Fluorination of palladium powder with atomic fluoride at 900–1700 Pa.[3]

Physical properties

Palladium hexafluoride is predicted to be stable.[4] The compound is reported to form dark red solid that decomposes to PdF4. Palladium hexafluoride is a very powerful oxidizing agent.[3]
