Fluomine is a chemical compound containing a cobalt chelate. It has the ability to form a complex with molecular oxygen (O2) and then release it upon heating. [1] Because of this ability to reversibly sorb and desorb oxygen, it has been used in high-altitude aircraft oxygen-generating systems. [2] [3]

The toxicity of fluomine has been studied [1] [4] and it is classified by the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act as an extremely hazardous substance. [5]
