1. Hyponitrous acid

   Hyponitrous acid is a chemical compound with formula H2N2O2 or HON=NOH. It is an isomer of nitramide, H2N−NO2; and a formal dimer of azanone, HNO. Hyponitrous acid forms two series of salts, the hyponitrites containing the [ON=NO]2− anion, and the "acid hyponitrites" containing the [HON=NO]− anion.

1. hyponitrous acid

   Hyponitrous acid is a chemical compound with the formula H2N2O2 or more accurately HONO. It is known as a weak diprotic acid and it exists mainly in solution as a mixture of the monodeprotonated species, HONOH+. It is formed by protonating nitrous oxide or N2O. It is used in organic chemistry for a variety of reactions.

1. Hyponitrous acid

   Hyponitrous acid is the chemical compound H2N2O2. This can be formulated as HON=NOH and is an isomer of nitramide,. It forms white crystals that are explosive when dry. Hyponitrous acid is a weak acid in aqueous solution and decomposes to N2O and water with a half-life of 16 days at 25°C at pH 1-3. As this reaction is not reversible, N2O should not be considered as the anhydride of H2N2O2. Hyponitrous acid forms two series of salts, the "acid hyponitrites" containing [HON=N]− anion and hyponitrites containing the [ON=NO]2− anion. The hyponitrite ion [ON=NO]2− can be prepared in aqueous solution by two methods. One method uses organic nitrites to synthesize the sodium salt: Another method is by the reduction of sodium nitrite to give the silver salt: Addition of Ag+ ions precipitates Ag2N2O2 from solution. The free acid is then prepared from silver hyponitrite and anhydrous HCl in ether: There are two possible structures of hyponitrous acid, trans and cis, and the solid Na2N2O2•5H2O is confirmed to be the trans form. Spectroscopic data also indicate a trans configuration of the free acid. The cis-form can be prepared as the sodium salt Na2N2O2 by heating Na2O with gaseous N2O.
