Lutetium(III) fluoride is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula LuF₃.

Production[]

Lutetium(III) fluoride can be produced by reacting lutetium oxide with hydrogen fluoride, or reacting lutetium chloride and hydrofluoric acid:^[7]

Lu
2O
3 + 6 HF → 2 LuF
3 + 3 H
2O

LuCl
3 + 3 HF → LuF
3 + 3 HCl

It can also be produced by reacting and hydrofluoric acid:^[8]

3 Lu
₂S
₃+ 20 HF + (2 + 2x) H
₂O → 2 (H
₃O)Lu
₃F
₁₀·xH
₂O↓ + 9 H
₂S↑ (x = 0.9)

(H
3O)Lu
3F
10 → 3 LuF
3 + HF↑ + H
2O↑

Lutetium oxide and nitrogen trifluoride react at 240 °C to produce LuOF. A second step happens below 460 °C to produce LuF₃.^[9]
