Antimony(III) oxide hydroxide nitrate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Sb4O4(OH)2(NO3)2. It is one of the very few nitrates of antimony. No evidence for a simple trinitrate has been reported. According to X-ray crystallography, its structure consists of cationic layers of antimony oxide/hydroxide with intercalated nitrate anions. This compound is produced by the reaction of antimony(III) oxide and nitric acid and 110 °C. [1]

Antimony Chemical element, symbol Sb and atomic number 51

Antimony is a chemical element with the symbol Sb (from Latin: stibium) and atomic number 51. A lustrous gray metalloid, it is found in nature mainly as the sulfide mineral stibnite (Sb2S3). Antimony compounds have been known since ancient times and were powdered for use as medicine and cosmetics, often known by the Arabic name kohl. Metallic antimony was also known, but it was erroneously identified as lead upon its discovery. The earliest known description of the metal in the West was written in 1540 by Vannoccio Biringuccio.
