Carbonyl fluoride is the chemical compound with the formula COF2. This gas, like its analog phosgene, is highly toxic. The molecule is planar with C2v symmetry.
Carbonyl fluoride is unstable in the presence of water.
Carbonyl fluoride is extremely poisonous and inhalation can be deadly. The threshold limit value is 2 ppm for short-term exposure.
