Chloryl fluoride is a chemical compound from the group of fluorides in chloric acid .

Extraction and presentation

Chloryl fluoride can be obtained by reacting chlorine dioxide with fluorine at around −50 ° C.

${\displaystyle \mathrm {2\ ClO_{2}+F_{2}\longrightarrow 2\ ClF{O_{2}}} }$

It was first synthesized by Schmitz and Schumacher in 1942.

It can also be represented by the reaction of potassium chlorate or sodium chlorate with chlorine trifluoride .

${\displaystyle \mathrm {6\ NaClO_{3}+4\ ClF_{3}\longrightarrow 6\ ClFO_{2}+6\ NaF+2\ Cl_{2}+3\ O_{2}} }$

properties

Chloryl fluoride is a colorless gas that is very sensitive to moisture. It immediately forms fog in moist air. The compound is much more thermally stable than chlorine dioxide.
