No solid peroxynitrate salts are known.[2] However, there is a report that the chemist Sebastian Moiseevich Tanatar produced sodium peroxynitrate octahydrate (NaNO3·H2O2·8H2O) by evaporating a solution of sodium nitrate and hydrogen peroxide until crystallisation begins and then mixing with alcohol to form crystals of the octahydrate.[3]
