Chlorine oxide

Dichlorine heptoxide, Cl

Chlorine and oxygen can bond in many ways:

* chlorine monoxide radical, ClO•, chlorine (II) oxide radical
* chloroperoxyl radical, ClOO•, chlorine (II) peroxide radical
* chlorine dioxide, ClO
2, chlorine (IV) oxide
* chlorine trioxide radical, ClO
3•, chlorine (VI) oxide radical
* chlorine tetroxide radical, ClO
4•, chlorine (VII) oxide radical
* dichlorine monoxide, Cl
2O, chlorine (I) oxide
* chlorine peroxide, Cl

2, dimer of chlorine monoxide radical or ClO dimer, chlorine (I) peroxide
* chloryl chloride, ClO
2Cl, chlorine (0,IV) oxide
* chlorine chlorite, ClOClO, chlorine (I,III) oxide
* dichlorine trioxide, Cl

3 as O–Cl–ClO
2, chlorine (III,V) oxide
* dichlorine trioxide, Cl

3 as possible isomer Cl–O–ClO
2, chlorine (I,V) oxide
* dichlorine trioxide, Cl

3 as hypothetical isomer O–Cl–O–Cl–O, chlorine (III) oxide
* dichlorine tetroxide, also known as chlorine perchlorate, Cl

4 or ClOClO
3, chlorine (I,VII) oxide
* dichlorine pentoxide, Cl

5 or ClOOClO
3, is hypothetical
* dichlorine hexoxide or chloryl perchlorate, Cl

6 or [ClO
2]+
[ClO
4]−
, chlorine (V,VII) oxide
* dichlorine heptoxide, Cl

7, chlorine (VII) oxide
* dichlorine octoxide, chlorine (VII) oxide peroxide or dimer of chlorine tetroxide radical, Cl

8 or (OClO

Several ions are also chlorine oxides:

* chloryl, ClO+

* perchloryl, ClO+

* hypochlorite, ClO−

* chlorite, ClO−

* chlorate, ClO−

* perchlorate, ClO−
