Chlorosyl fluoride is an inorganic compound of chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen with the chemical formula OClF.

Synthesis

• Partial hydrolysis of chlorine trifluoride in diluted gas phase at low temperatures.
• Reaction of chlorine trifluoride with nitric acid.

Chemical properties

Chlorosyl fluoride is thermolabile and disproportionates to ClF and ClO
₂F.:

2FClO → ClF + FClO₂

2FClO → 2ClF +O₂
