The evidence for a linkage isomerism in solid cupric ferricyanide

Authors:

Abstract

Experimental evidence is presented to show that solid cupric ferricyanide undergoes a structural transition when bonded interstitial water is removed. It is suggested that this transition is caused by a linkage isomerism where the co-ordination of C to Fe2+ and N to Cu++ in CN- is reversed.
