chlorine trifluoride

Chlorine trifluoride is an interhalogen compound with the formula ClF₃. This colourless, poisonous, corrosive, and extremely reactive gas condenses to a pale-greenish yellow liquid, the form in which it is most often sold (pressurized at room temperature). The compound is primarily of interest as a component in rocket fuels, in plasmaless cleaning and etching operations in the semiconductor industry, in  nuclear reactor fuel processing, and other industrial operations.
