Английская Википедия:Chlorine azide
Chlorine azide (Шаблон:Chem2) is an inorganic compound that was discovered in 1908 by Friedrich Raschig.[1] Concentrated Шаблон:Chem2 is notoriously unstable and may spontaneously detonate at any temperature.[2]
Preparation and handling
Chlorine azide is prepared by passing chlorine gas over silver azide, or by an addition of acetic acid to a solution of sodium hypochlorite and sodium azide.[3]
Explosive characteristics
Chlorine azide is extremely sensitive. It may explode, sometimes even without apparent provocation; it is thus too sensitive to be used commercially unless first diluted in solution. Chlorine azide reacts explosively with 1,3-butadiene, ethane, ethene, methane, propane, phosphorus, silver azide, and sodium. On contact with acid, chlorine azide decomposes, evolving toxic and corrosive hydrogen chloride gas.[4]
Regulatory information
Its shipment is subject to strict reporting requirements and regulations by the US Department of Transportation.
