Molybdenum difluoride dioxide is the inorganic compound with the formula MoF2O2. It is a white, diamagnetic, volatile solid.[1]

Structure of solid MoF2O2. X positions are occupied by O or F.

Gaseous molybdenum difluoride dioxide is a tetrahedral molecule.[2] According to X-ray crystallography, the solid is a coordination polymer consisting of trigonal primatic chains of made by linking Mo3F6O6 monomers. The fluoride and oxide positions are disordered.[3] A similar motif is adopted by titanium tetrafluoride.
