| Abstract: | NF3 and N(NO2)3 are known compounds, whereas the mixed fluoronitroamines, FN(NO2)2 and F2NNO2, have been unknown thus far. One of these, FN(NO2)2, has now been prepared and characterized by multinuclear NMR and Raman spectroscopy. FN(NO2)2 is the first known example of an inorganic fluoronitroamine. It is a thermally unstable, highly energetic material formed by the fluorination of the dinitramide anion using NF4+ salts as the preferred fluorinating agent. |
