Tetrafluoroborate-Monofluorophosphate (NH(4))(3)[PO(3)F][BF(4)]: First Member of Oxyfluoride with B–F and P–F Bonds

[Image: see text] Inspired by the strategy of fluorine introduction in borates and phosphates, the inorganic oxyfluoride (NH(4))(3)[PO(3)F][BF(4)] with B–F and P–F bonds has been characterized as the first fluoroborate-fluorophosphate. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) name for (NH(4))(3)[PO(3)F][BF(4)] should be ammonium tetrafluoroborate-monofluorophosphate according to the structure characteristics. The existence and coordination of fluorine in (NH(4))(3)[PO(3)F][BF(4)] were confirmed by several approaches, including single-crystal structure analysis; bond valence analysis; and X-ray energy dispersive, infrared spectrum, and also nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This work is of great significance to enrich the solid-state chemistry of borates and phosphates and also open a new branch of mixed anion compound with fluoroborate-fluorophosphates.
