Summarize this article for a 10 year old
1,1,1,2-tetrafluorodisulfane, also known as 1,2-difluorodisulfane 1,1-difluoride or just difluorodisulfanedifluoride (FSSF3) is an unstable molecular compound of fluorine and sulfur. The molecule has a pair of sulfur atoms, with one fluorine atom on one sulfur, and three fluorine atoms on the other. It has the uncommon property that all the bond lengths are different.[3] The bond strength is not correlated with bond length but is inversely correlated with the force constant (Badger's rule).[3] The molecule can be considered as sulfur tetrafluoride in which a sulfur atom is inserted into a S-F bond.[3]

Atoms are labelled with the sulfur atom connected to three fluorine atoms as Shyp (for hypervalent) and Stop. The fluorine atoms are labelled Ftop attached to Stop, and on the hypervalent S atom: Fcis, the closest F atom to Ftop, Ftrans the furthest away F atom from Ftop, and Feq[3]
Carlowitz first determined the structure in 1983.[3]
atom 1 | atom 2 | bond length Å[3] | bond dissociation energy kcal/mol[3] |
bond angle to S-S axis °[4] |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ftop | Stop | 1.62 | 86.4 | 105 |
Fcis | Shyp | 1.67 | 102.1 | 76 |
Ftrans | Shyp | 1.77 | 97.8 | 92 |
Feq | Shyp | 1.60 | 86.7 | 106 |
Stop | Shyp | 2.08 |
Feq is 90° from Ftrans, and 84° from Fcis, and the torsion compared to Ftop is about 95°.[4]
