The dissociation energy of F-and the stability of alkali perfluorides

Abstract
Multiconfiguration valence bond calculations using accurate AO bases have been carried out for F2 and F2 -. A dissociation energy of at least 1·06 eV is predicted for the F2 - ion. Lattice energy calculations together with this value lead to an approximate value of ΔG = -16 kcal mole-1 for the reaction The true value may be much closer to zero.
