Ammonium compounds
Ammonium hydroperoxide:
Bubbling ammonia through concentrated hydrogen peroxide.
Ammonium hypochlorite:
(aq)NaClO added to ammonium fluoride, and extracting NaF.
Ammonium bromoconglomerate:
[NH4+ NBr2COO-]
Adding bromoconglomeric acid to ammonia solution.
Any ideas on stability or properties? As far as I know none of them currently exist.

F. de Lalande and M. Prud'homme showed that a mixture of boric oxide and sodium chloride is decomposed in a stream of dry air or oxygen at a red heat
with the evolution of chlorine.

It is more likely that concentrated hydrogen peroxide would oxidize NH3 to N2, and that NaClO solution would oxidize NH3 or NH4+ salts to partly
Cl-substituted derivatives of NH3 and finally to NCl3 (highly explosive). There is the possibility also of partly Cl-substituted ammonium cations, but
these would be much less stable than NH4+, and could only exist at low temperatures as the salts of the strongest acids.
