Chemical compound
The tetrafluoroammonium cation (also known as perfluoroammonium) is a positively charged polyatomic ion with chemical formula NF+ 4. It is equivalent to the ammonium ion where the hydrogen atoms surrounding the central nitrogen atom have been replaced by fluorine.[1] Tetrafluoroammonium ion is isoelectronic with tetrafluoromethane CF 4, trifluoramine oxide ONF 3 and the tetrafluoroborate BF− 4 anion.
The tetrafluoroammonium ion forms salts with a large variety of fluorine-bearing anions. These include the bifluoride anion (HF− 2), tetrafluorobromate (BrF− 4), metal pentafluorides (MF− 5 where M is Ge, Sn, or Ti), hexafluorides (MF− 6 where M is P, As, Sb, Bi, or Pt), heptafluorides (MF− 7 where M is W, U, or Xe), octafluorides (XeF2− 8),[2] various oxyfluorides (MF 5O− where M is W or U; FSO− 3, BrF 4O− ), and perchlorate (ClO− 4).[3] Attempts to make the nitrate salt, NF 4NO 3, were unsuccessful because of quick fluorination: NF+ 4 + NO− 3 → NF 3 + FONO 2.[4]
