Bromyl fluoride is an inorganic compound of bromine, fluorine, and oxygen with the chemical formula BrO
2
F
.[1][2]

Synthesis

  • A reaction of K+
    [BrF
    4
    O]
    (potassium tetrafluorooxobromate(V)) with HF.[3]
  • Hydrolysis of bromine pentafluoride at low temperatures:
BrF

F + 4 HF
(1).

Physical properties

The compound forms a colorless volatile liquid that decomposes at temperatures above 10 °C. It is highly reactive and unstable,[4] and corrodes glass at room temperature due the formation of HF upon reaction with water (1).

Chemical properties

  • Decomposes when heated:[5]
