 Process for the separation of hydrogen fluoride from its mixtures with a hydrofluoroalkane containing from 3 to 6 ...
The mixture is placed in contact with a solution of alkali metal fluoride (in particular potassium or caesium fluoride) and the organic phase is separated from the phase containing the hydrogen fluoride and the alkali metal fluoride.
Using this known process, there may be fear of contaminating the organic phase with the potassium or caesium fluoride and the risk of decomposing the hydrofluoroalkanes which this contamination might entail.
To this end, the invention relates to a process for the separation of hydrogen fluoride from its mixtures with at least one hydrofluoroalkane containing from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, according to which the separation is carried out by extraction using at least one organic solvent.

 2002 Fluoride Abstracts. Part 2. Fluoride Action Network Pesticide Project.
The fluoride concentration in the samples was found to lie in the range of 0.02 to 2.32 mg/L with a mean of 0.43 ± 0.40 mg/L. Surface water contained the lowest amount of fluoride with a mean of 0.14 ± 0.10 mg/L for 23 samples.
It was observed that fluoride accumulation in plants could be averted through soil amendment by calcium treatment in the form of calcium carbonate thereby reducing the risk of human and livestock exposure to abnormal levels of fluoride through food chain other than protecting plants from getting affected.
By region and district the mean fluoride concentration ranged from 0.12 ppm for rivers in Laikipia to 0.24 ppm for rivers in Nairobi, with 0.32 ppm in the Upper Basin of the Athi River.

Caesium is a soft metal which is often liquid at room temperature due to its relatively low melting point (28.5°C).
As with other alkaline group metals, caesium can be prepared by electrolysis of the fused halides but, in addition, it can also be prepared by heating the chloride with calcium and distilling out the molten metal.
Caesium is also used in atomic clocks, a standard measure of time, based on the caesium ion resonance of 9,192,631,770 Hz.

 KF/CH2X2/DMF - A Simple, High-Yield Methylenation of Catechols - [www.rhodium.ws]
The reaction of a catechol with dihalogenomethane in DMF in the presence of an excess of potassium or caesium fluoride provides a high yield of the corresponding methylenedioxy compound in a relatively short period of time.
On shaking anhydrous caesium fluoride (7.6 g, 0.05 mol) with a solution of catechol (1.1 g, 0.01 mol) in anhydrous DMF (30 g), the mixture became warm and the IR of the mixture showed a new strong broad band at ca 2500 cm
Furthermore, it would seem that by using caesium fluoride and dichloromethane, intermolecular condensations may be kept to a minimum.

This colorless solid is an important source of caesium ions in a variety of applications.

It is possible that, after the salt Cs+F− has formed, the Cs+ ion, which has the same electronic structure as elemental xenon, can like xenon be oxidised further by fluorine and form traces of a higher fluoride such as CsF3, analogous to XeF2.
The high density of the caesium formate brine (up to 2.3 sg,) coupled with the relative benignity of 133Cs, reduces the requirement for toxic high-density suspended solids in the drilling fluid, which is a significant technological, engineering and environmental advantage.
SI defines the second as 9,192,631,770 cycles of the radiation which corresponds to the transition between two electron spin energy levels of the ground state of the 133Cs atom.
