It is an extremely effective fluorinating agent, converting most uranium compounds to the hexafluoride at room temperature. It is an extremely effective fluorinating agent, being able to convert most metals to their highest fluorides even at room temperature.

==Hazards== ==Hazards==
BrF<sub>5</sub> reacts violently with water, and is severely corrosive and toxic. Its vapors are also extremely irritating to all parts of the human body, especially the skin, eyes and other ]s. Like many other interhalogen compounds, it will release "smoke" containing acidic vapors if exposed to moist air, which comes from its reaction with the water in the air. Exposure to 100 ppm or more for more than one minute is lethal to most experimental animals. Chronic exposure may cause kidney damage and ].<ref name="patnaik1">{{cite book
