Xenone trioxide (13776-58-4)

Identification
Name:Xenone trioxide
CAS:13776-58-4
Molecular Formula: O3Xe
Molecular Weight: 179.30
Molecular Structure: (O3Xe)
Properties
Specification:

 Xenon trioxide (CAS NO.13776-58-4) is a strong oxidising agent and can oxidise most substances that are susceptible. However, it is slow-acting and this reduces its usefulness.

When it dissolves in water, an acidic solution of xenic acid is formed:

XeO3 (aq) + H2O → H2XeO4 H+ + HXeO4
This solution is stable at room temperature and lacks the explosive properties of xenon trioxide. It oxidises carboxylic acids quantitatively to carbon dioxide and water.
