Cyanogen fluoride is a chemical compound from the group of cyanogen halides or nitriles .
Extraction and presentation
Cyanogen fluoride can be obtained by pyrolysis of cyanuric fluoride at 1300 ° C under reduced pressure.
It can also be obtained by reacting silver (I) fluoride and cyanogen iodine . Another synthesis takes place through the reaction of tetracyanomethane with cesium fluoride .
properties
Cyanogen fluoride is a colorless gas that can be stored at −78 ° C. According to Antoine, the vapor pressure function results from log 10 (P) = A− (B / (T + C)) (P in bar, T in K) with A = 3.84021, B = 677.148 and C = −50.579 in the temperature range from 196.8 to 226.4 K. With a heat of formation of 35.8 kJ · mol −1 or 790 J · g −1 , it is an endothermic compound. It polymerizes to cyanuric fluoride at room temperature. In the presence of boron trifluoride or hydrogen fluoride , this reaction takes place very violently or explosively at −80 ° C. The pure gas is not sensitive to ignition sparks and other ignition sources. The mixtures with air explode more violently than the corresponding ethyne- air mixtures.
use
Cyanogen fluoride can be used in tear gas and for the synthesis of organic compounds.
