Sodium ferrocyanide is the sodium salt of the coordination compound of formula [Fe(CN) 6] 4−. In its hydrous form, Na 4 Fe(CN) 6 · H 2 O (sodium ferrocyanide decahydrate), it is sometimes known as yellow prussiate of soda. It is a yellow crystalline solid that is soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. The yellow color is the color of ...
Prussian blue, also known as potassium ferric hexacyanoferrate, is used as a medication to treat thallium poisoning or radioactive caesium poisoning. [1] [2] For thallium it may be used in addition to gastric lavage, activated charcoal, forced diuresis, and hemodialysis. [3] [4] It is given by mouth or nasogastric tube.
Sodium ferrocyanide is a common anti-caking agent. Specialized applications involves their use as precipitating agents for production of citric acid and wine. Specialized applications involves their use as precipitating agents for production of citric acid and wine.
The pigment is used in paints, it became prominent in 19th-century aizuri-e (藍摺り絵) Japanese woodblock prints, and it is the traditional "blue" in technical blueprints. In medicine, orally administered Prussian blue is used as an antidote for certain kinds of heavy metal poisoning, e.g., by thallium(I) and radioactive isotopes of cesium.
It and the related sodium salt are widely used as anticaking agents for both road salt and table salt. The potassium and sodium hexacyanidoferrates(II) are also used in the purification of tin and the separation of copper from molybdenum ores. Potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II) is used in the production of wine and citric acid. [6]
Scientists from Purdue University designed and developed OTL38 and licensed it to On Target Laboratories in 2013. [9] [10] The safety and effectiveness of pafolacianine was evaluated in a randomized, multi-center, open-label study of women diagnosed with ovarian cancer or with high clinical suspicion of ovarian cancer who were scheduled to undergo surgery.
It is also called hexacyanoferrate(III) and in rare, but systematic nomenclature, hexacyanidoferrate(III). The most common salt of this anion is potassium ferricyanide , a red crystalline material that is used as an oxidant in organic chemistry .
Ferroxyl indicator, or rust indicator, is a solution containing potassium hexacyanoferrate(III), phenolphthalein and sodium chloride. It turns blue in the presence of Fe 2+ ions, and pink in the presence of hydroxide (OH −) ions. It can be used to detect metal oxidation, and is often used to detect rusting in various situations.
