    Prussian blue or "ferric ferrocyanide", Fe 4 [Fe(CN) 6] 3, is an old and well-known iron-cyanide complex, extensively used as pigment and in several other applications. Its formation can be used as a simple wet chemistry test to distinguish between aqueous solutions of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ as they react (respectively) with potassium ferricyanide and ...

    Fe 0 + 2 H + → Fe 2+ + H 2. Iron(II) is oxidized by hydrogen peroxide to iron(III), forming a hydroxyl radical and a hydroxide ion in the process. This is the Fenton reaction. Iron(III) is then reduced back to iron(II) by another molecule of hydrogen peroxide, forming a hydroperoxyl radical and a proton.
