Thiocyanate used to be known as rhodanide (from a Greek word for rose) because of the red colour of its complexes with iron. Thiocyanate is produced by the reaction of elemental sulfur or thiosulfate with cyanide: + + + The second reaction is catalyzed by thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, a hepatic mitochondrial enzyme, and by other sulfur ...
Thiocyanate complexes are not widely used commercially. Possibly the oldest application of thiocyanate complexes was the use of thiocyanate as a test for ferric ions in aqueous solution. [14] The reverse was also used: testing for the presence of thiocyanate by the addition of ferric salts. The 1:1 complex of thiocyanate and iron is deeply red.
Ferric oxide, commonly called rust, is a very complicated material that contains iron(III). Iron(III) is found in many minerals and solids, e.g., oxide Fe 2 O 3 (hematite) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide FeO(OH) are extremely insoluble reflecting their polymeric structure. Rust is a mixture of iron(III) oxide and oxide-hydroxide that usually ...
Tris(acetylacetonato) iron(III), often abbreviated Fe(acac) 3, is a ferric coordination complex featuring acetylacetonate (acac) ligands, making it one of a family of metal acetylacetonates. It is a red air-stable solid that dissolves in nonpolar organic solvents.
Thiocyanate is a common test for the presence of iron(III) as it forms the blood-red [Fe(SCN)(H 2 O) 5] 2+. Like manganese(II), most iron(III) complexes are high-spin, the exceptions being those with ligands that are high in the spectrochemical series such as cyanide. An example of a low-spin iron(III) complex is [Fe(CN) 6] 3−.
The Fe 3+ ion in ferric citrate (as in many iron(III) carboxylates) is reduced by exposure to light, [8] especially blue and ultraviolet, to Fe 2+ (ferrous) ion with concomitant oxidation of the carboxyl group adjacent to the hydroxyl, yielding carbon dioxide and acetonedicarboxylate: 2 Fe 3+ + R 2-C(OH)-CO − 2 → 2 Fe 2+ + R 2-C=O + H + + CO 2
The 119th Congress begins on Jan. 3. When Gaetz resigned, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., expressed hope that a special election could be held in time to fill his seat quickly.
