The enthalpies of (oxidative) alkaline hydrolysis of the pentafluorides and of the oxotetrafluorides of molybdenum and of tungsten have been measured. From these values the respective enthalpies of formation of these compounds have been estimated to be ΔHf⊖[MoF5(c)]=–1387; ΔHf⊖[WF5(c)]=–1457; ΔHf⊖[MoOF4(c)]=–1380; and ΔH⊖f[WOF4(c)]=–1500 kJ mol–1.
