Krypton hexafluoride is an inorganic chemical compound of krypton and fluorine with the chemical formula KrF6.

[2] In 1933, Linus Pauling predicted that the heavier noble gases would be able to form compounds with fluorine and oxygen.

He also predicted the existence of krypton hexafluoride.

[3][verification needed][4] Calculations suggest it would have octahedral molecular geometry.
