Question:

(a) Predict the 31P NMR spectrum of [HPF5] (assuming a static structure) given that JPH = 939 Hz, JPF(axial) = 731 Hz and JPF(equatorial) = 817 Hz.

(b) The [BiF7]2− and [SbF6]3− ions have pentagonal bipyramidal and octahedral structures, respectively. Are these observations consistent with the VSEPR model?

(c) Consider the following reaction scheme (K.O. Christe (1995) J. Am. Chem. Soc., vol. 117, p. 6136):
