Barium chloride fluoride
Barium chloride fluoride (BaClF) is an inorganic compound made of barium, chlorine, and fluorine. It forms white crystals and has a tetragonal crystal structure similar to BaF2. Its molar mass is 191.78 g/mol, and it is poorly soluble in water. BaClF occurs in nature as the mineral zhangpeishanite, part of the matlockite group, and is mined in Bayan Obo, China. It can be made by precipitating BaCl2 with ammonium fluoride (NH4F) in solution or by melting BaF2 with BaCl2.
