Lithium ozonide is an oxygen rich compound of lithium. It is an ozonide, meaning it contains the ozonide anion (O3−).
Concentrated solutions of lithium ozonide have been prepared in anhydrous liquid ammonia, through the use of an ion exchange reaction beginning with caesium ozonide.[1] Lithium ozonide is the most soluble of the alkali metal ozonides in liquid ammonia.[2]
Lithium ozonide shows a visible spectrum characteristic compared to the ozonides of other alkali metals. The maximum visible spectrum characteristic appears at 450 μm. The heat of formation for the tetraammoniate of lithium ozonide was found to be -135 ± 5 kcal/mol.[2] Complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) methods have been used to calculate the harmonic and fundamental frequencies of lithium ozonide.[3]
