The novel syntheses of MnF3, CoF3, BiF3, Pd2F6, PdF4, LaF3 and SmF3, using
the approach in liquid anhydrous hydrogen fluoride as a solvent at room tem
perature are described. Some advantages, like mild reaction conditions and
purity of the reaction products, are discussed in comparison to the methods
described so far for the syntheses of these binary fluorides.
