Chlorine trifluoride dioxide is an inorganic compound of chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen with the chemical formula ClO2F3.[1]

Synthesis

Synthesis of chlorine trifluoride dioxide can be by a reaction of chlorine monofluoride with dioxygen difluoride:[2]

ClF + O2F2 → ClO2F3

Alternatively it can be made by a reaction of chlorine trifluoride with oxygen gas:[2]

ClF3 + O2 → ClO2F3
