Anhydrous osmium tetrabromide was initially produced in a tube at bromine vapor pressure 6 to 10 atm. Tube temperatures were 500 to 550 deg C at the hot end and 150 to 200 deg C at the cool. Br: O/sub 3/ ratios were 3.93 to 3.96. Further experiments produced a purer product at 20 atm with 530 to 580 deg C at one end and 150 to 200 deg C at the other end of the tube. The anhydrous OsBr/sub 4/ is nonhygroscopic and insoluble in water, dilute hydrochloric acid, and concentrated HCl, HBr, HNO/sub 3/, and H/sub 2/SO/sub 4/. At 350 to 400 deg C OsBr/sub 4/ decomposes into tribromide and bromine. (R.V.J.)
