Synthesis edit
Bromine nitrate can be prepared by several methods:
1. Reaction of silver nitrate on an alcoholic solution of bromine:
- Br2 + AgNO3 → BrNO3 + AgBr
2. Reaction of bromine chloride with chlorine nitrate at low temperatures:
- BrCl + ClNO3 → BrNO3 + Cl2
Physical properties edit
Bromine mononitrate forms an unstable yellow liquid that decomposes at temperatures above 0 °C.
The molecule has the structure BrONO2.[2][3]
The compound is easily soluble in trichlorofluoromethane and carbon tetrachloride.
Applications edit
Bromine nitrate plays a role in tropospheric chemistry as it reacts with sulfuric acid.[4][5]
