Molar mass 348.1855 g/mol
Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa).

Xenon hexafluororhodate (XeRhF6) is a deep-red noble gas compound first synthesised in 1963 by Neil Bartlett.[1] It is analogous to xenon hexafluoroplatinate.

Synthesis

Xenon hexafluororhodate is produced by the direct combination of xenon and rhodium hexafluoride:[1]

Xe + RhF6 → XeRhF6
