Nickel (III) oxide is the
inorganic compound with the formula Ni
2O
3. It is not well characterized,
and is sometimes referred to as black nickel oxide. Traces of Ni
2O
3 on nickel surfaces have been mentioned.
Nickel (III) oxide has been studied theoretically since the early thirties, supporting its unstable nature at standard temperatures. A nanostructured pure phase of the material was synthesized and stabilized for the first time in 2015 from the reaction of nickel(II) nitrate with sodium hypochlorite and characterized using powder X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy.
