Abstract
Noble molecule: [Mg(XeF2)(XeF4)](AsF6)2 is the first coordination compound in which XeF4 acts as a ligand to a metal center. It is also the first known compound, in which XeF2 and XeF4 are simultaneously coordinated to the same metal center (see structure; purple Xe, green F, gray Mg, yellow As).
