Recent Progress in Nitrogen Fluoride Chemistry

Abstract

For the preparation of N5+ salts on a larger scale, it was necessary to prepare the corresponding precursors in an efficient manner and in large quantities. In this paper, process improvements in this direction are described. Furthermore, the catalytic conversion of trans-N2F2 to its cis-isomer is discussed. Also discovered during the isomerization studies was a novel synthetic route to NF4+ salts at relatively low temperature and pressure. A structural analysis of the N2F+ cation was also carried out for N2F+SbF6- and N2F+Sb2F11-.
