Project title: Hi-Ox: Journey to the core of the atom – pushing the limits of the reachable oxidation states of metal atoms.
Project description:
The highest oxidation states of chemical elements have so far been observed in the ligand environment of fluorides and oxides, with octavalent state encountered for Xe, Ru, Os, and possibly also for Rn and Pu. Recently, IrO4+cation has been observed, where nonavalent IrIX transition metal center is isolectronic with OsVIII. This breakthrough discovery shows that nowadays it is not clear at all, what could be the limiting value of the oxidation state depending on the position in Periodic Table, in molecules and solids under different pressure and temperature conditions. The research hypothesis is that compounds of IrIX, PtX, AuXI and HgXII or DyV, PrV, NdVI and HoVI, could be stabilized at high-pressure conditions.
