The formation of oxide ion O2-(g), from oxygen atom, requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below

O(g)+e-O-(g); H=-141 kJ mol-1
O-(g)+e-O2(g); H=+780 kJ mol-1

Thus, the process of formation of O2- in the gas phase is unfavourable even though O2- is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that

1. Oxygen is more electronegative
2. Addition of electron in oxygen results in a larger size of the ion
3. Electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration
4. O- ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom
