Recently there has been a renewal of interest in xenon chemistry, with the preparation of many novel compounds with Xe-O, Xe-N and Xe-C bonds. Strongly electron withdrawing groups are required on N and C, an example being the compound (C6F5)2Xe which like XeF2 has linear...

Compounds containing linear C—Xe—Cl units are recent additions to xenon chemistry, the first examples being CgFsXeCl (equation 17.19) and [(C6F5Xe)2Cl]+ (equation 17.20 and structure 17.14). 

The mosl spectacular variations from the octet rule are in xenon chemistry, where the rule would predict zero valency. Xenon forms a small range of compounds wii oxygen and fluorine in which il expands its valence shell to produce oxidalion states of +2,... 

All noble gas compounds (except for proton adducts such as the gas-phase species HeH" ") are hypervalent that is, they have more than eight eleeflons in the noble gas valence shell. In addition, XeF4 and XeF are susceptible to nucleophilic attack by F , which further increases their coordination number. Fluoride ligands are also common leaving or migrating groups in much of xenon chemistry.
