Abstract:

Among the aspects discussed in this survey are the preparation of fulminic acid and its polymerization behavior, as well as its application for the synthesis of compounds such as the isoxazoles. Progress in the synthesis of fulminate salts leads from mercuric fulminate to other metallic fulminates, to complexes, and to organometallic derivatives. Studies dealing with structure, solubility, thermal decomposition, and analysis of fulminates are presented.
