Английская Википедия:Californium compounds
Few compounds of californium have been made and studied.[1] The only californium ion that is stable in aqueous solutions is the californium(III) cation.Шаблон:Sfn The other two oxidation states are IV (strong oxidizing agents) and II (strong reducing agents).Шаблон:Sfn The element forms a water-soluble chloride, nitrate, perchlorate, and sulfate and is precipitated as a fluoride, oxalate or hydroxide.Шаблон:Sfn If problems of availability of the element could be overcome, then CfBr2 and CfI2 would likely be stable.Шаблон:Sfn
The +3 oxidation state is represented by californium(III) oxide (yellow-green, Cf2O3), californium(III) fluoride (bright green, CfF3) and californium(III) iodide (lemon yellow, CfI3).Шаблон:Sfn Other +3 oxidation states include the sulfide and metallocene.Шаблон:Sfn Californium(IV) oxide (black brown, CfO2), californium(IV) fluoride (green, CfF4) represent the IV oxidation state. The II state is represented by californium(II) bromide (yellow, CfBr2) and californium(II) iodide (dark violet, CfI2).Шаблон:Sfn
Compounds
Californium(IV) oxide (CfO2) is a black-brown solid that has a cubic crystal structure with a lattice parameter, the distance between unit cells in the crystal, of 531.0 ± 0.2 pm.[2] Crystals of californium(III) oxide normally have a body-centered cubic symmetry. They convert to a monoclinic form upon heating to about 1400 °C and melt at 1750 °C.[2]
Californium(III) chloride (CfCl3) is an emerald green compound with a hexagonal structure that can be prepared by reacting Cf2O3 with hydrochloric acid at 500 °C.Шаблон:Sfn CfCl3 is then used as a feeder stock to form the yellow-orange triiodide CfI3, which in turn can be reduced to the lavender-violet diiodide CfI2.[3]
Californium(III) fluoride (CfF3) is a yellow-green solid with a crystal symmetry that gradually changes from orthorhombic to trigonal when heated above room temperature.[4] Californium(IV) fluoride (CfF4) is a bright green solid with a monoclinic crystal structure.[5]
Californium(II) iodide (CfI2) is a deep purple solid with a stable rhombohedral structure at room temperature and an unstable hexagonal structure. Californium(III) iodide (CfI3) is a lemon-yellow solid that has a rhombohedral structure and sublimes at ~800 °C.[6]
Californium(III) oxyfluoride (CfOF) is prepared by hydrolysis of californium(III) fluoride (CfF3) at high temperature.[7] Californium(III) oxychloride (CfOCl) is prepared by hydrolysis of the hydrate of californium(III) chloride at 280–320 °C.[8]
Heating the sulfate in air at about 1200 °C and then reducing with hydrogen at 500 °C produces the sesquioxide (Cf2O3).Шаблон:Sfn The hydroxide Cf(OH)3 and the trifluoride CfF3 are slightly soluble.Шаблон:Sfn
Californium(III) oxychloride (CfOCl) was the first californium compound to be discovered.[9]
Californium(III) polyborate is unusual in that californium is covalently bound to the borate.[10]
Tris(cyclopentadienyl)californium(III) (Cp3Cf) presents itself as ruby red crystals. This cyclopentadienyl complex has been prepared by the reaction between Cp2Be and CfCl3 on a microgram scale and characterized by X-ray crystallography.[11] Californium is the second-heaviest element for which an organometallic compound is known. A bent californium metallocene has also been isolated and characterized.[12]
