Meaning of hypofluorous acid | Babel Free
Definitions
An oxyacid of fluorine, HOF; a short-lived species that has only been observed spectroscopically.
Examples
“Since fluorine must always be negative relative to oxygen, oxyacids analogous to those of the other halogens cannot be expected (24). Almost certainly, perfluoric acid HFO₄, or fluoric acid HFO₃, or hypofluorous acid HOF, will not therefore be prepared.”
