Vibrational spectra of crystalline potassium ferri- and ferrocyanide

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

The IR spectra of the crystalline salts K3[Fe(CN)6] (I) and K4[Fe(CN)6] (II) have been studied in the 1600–5000 cm−1 range for the purpose of investigating the spectral difference in the valence states of the central atoms of the complex anions. The appearance of the doublet structure of thev 6 band in the spectrum of salt II is due to distortion of its anion to D4h symmetry. The vibrational spectra of both salts are interpreted.
