“…The obtained results, in the temperature range between 0 and 1000 K, are shown in The analysis of the so far available data of mean amplitude values for I-F bonds has shown that the extreme values lie between 0.0377Å (for IF 6 + ) and 0.0602Å (for IF 5 2− ) [3,10], in agreement with the fact that in the first case iodine presents the oxidation state +7 and a positive charge whereas in the other one the iodine is in the oxidation state +3 and not only presents two negative charges but also an important congestion effect on the molecular plane, in which the fluorine atoms are practically in contact [3,10,11]. Besides, these two species present also the greatest differences in bond lengths found in I/F species (1.75Å for IF 6 + , 2.095Å for IF 5 2− ) [3,12]. Furthermore, the specially high mean amplitude value of IF 5 2− is in good agreement with the very low force constant calculated for the I-F bonds in this anion (1.53 mdyn/Å [11]).…”
