Differential Thermal Analysis of the Ammoniates of some Manganese (II) Salts

Nature volume 201, pages 73–74 (1964)Cite this article

Abstract

THE anhydrous transition metal halides and sulphates readily form ion-dipole type complexes when exposed to ammonia. In the case of the manganese (II) salts, the halides form complexes with the general formula, MnX2. nNH3; where X is Cl, Br and I, and n is 1, 2 and 6 (refs. 1–7). The sulphate forms complexes in which n is 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 (refs. 5, 6). In the past, the composition and stability of these complexes have been extensively studied by use of pressure-temperature and isothermal pressure-composition techniques2,4.
