C6H3NO23

C6H3NO23 is a molecular formula composed of six carbon atoms, three hydrogen atoms, one nitrogen atom, and twenty-three oxygen atoms. In chemistry, a formula by itself can designate either an empirical formula or a molecular formula for a class of possible compounds; without a specified connectivity or name, C6H3NO23 does not identify a single, well-defined substance.

The calculated molecular weight is approximately 457.1 g/mol (C 12.01 × 6, H 1.008 × 3, N 14.01, O 16.00 × 23).

Because the hydrogen count is relatively low for six carbons and there is a single nitrogen against many oxygens, many structural possibilities could in principle satisfy the formula. These could include highly oxidized aromatic or polycyclic systems, or molecules containing multiple oxygen-containing functional groups such as carbonyls, esters, peroxides, or acids. However, the specific arrangement of atoms—i.e., the connectivity and stereochemistry—would determine properties and reactivity, and no standard set of properties can be assigned from the formula alone.

At present, C6H3NO23 does not correspond to a widely recognized compound in major chemical databases. To identify a concrete substance, additional data such as a systematic name, SMILES or InChI string, or experimental spectroscopic information would be required.

Determination and characterization of any real compound with this composition would typically involve elemental analysis, mass spectrometry to confirm the molecular formula, and spectroscopic methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy to elucidate structure.
