Angeli's salt, sodium trioxodinitrate, is the inorganic compound with the formula Na₂[N₂O₃]. It contains nitrogen in an unusual reduced state. It is a colorless, water-soluble solid, hence a salt. In research, this salt is used as a source of the metastable nitroxyl (HNO), which is a signalling molecule in nature. It is also known by the name sodium trioxodinitrate(II) monohydrate.
