Popis: The (NH4)2ReX6 (X = F, Cl, Br, I) salts have been investigated by x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. The Re-F distance determined by EXAFS in (NH4)2ReF6 (i.e., 1.95 A) is in good agreement with the one determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction in A2ReF6 salts (A = K, Rb, Cs). The XANES studies of (NH4)2ReX6 (X = F, Cl, Br, I) indicates that the positions of the absorption edge and of the white line are shifted to higher energy when moving from I to F. These shifts have been explained in terms of the crystal field splitting parameter and covalent charge carried by the Re atoms. Calculations of the XANES spectra of the ReX62− (X = F, Cl, Br, I) anions at the Re-L3 edge have been performed and the calculated shifts and intensity of the white lines reproduce well the experimental observations.
