This solution is then treated with potassium salts to precipitate the mixed calcium-potassium salt CaK 2[Fe(CN) 6], which in turn is treated with Historical production [ ] Historically, the compound was manufactured from organic compounds containing nitrogen, iron filings, and potassium carbonate. Chemical reactions [ ] Treatment of potassium ferrocyanide with 2[Fe(NO)(CN) 5]. After neutralization of this intermediate with Upon treatment with 2 K 4[Fe(CN) 6] + Cl 2 → 2 K 3[Fe(CN) 6] + 2 KCl This reaction can be used to remove potassium ferrocyanide from a solution. [ citation needed] A famous reaction involves treatment with ferric salts to give III 4[Fe II ( 6] 3, this insoluble but deeply coloured material is the blue of Applications [ ] Potassium ferrocyanide finds many niche applications in industry. It and In the EU, ferrocyanides (E 535–538) were, as of 2017, solely authorised in two food categories as salt additives. It can also be used in animal feed. In the labor...

Potassium Ferricyanide What is Potassium Ferricyanide? Potassium ferricyanide is a coordination compound whose chemical formula is K 3[Fe(CN) 6]. This chemical compound exists as a bright red salt under standard conditions for temperature and pressure (usually abbreviated to STP). Each potassium ferricyanide molecule consists of three positively charged potassium cations and one ferricyanide anion. It can be noted that the coordination structure of the ferricyanide anion is octahedral. Potassium ferricyanide is known to be soluble in water. Furthermore, aqueous solutions of this coordination compound in water are also known to exhibit certain levels of green or greenish-yellow fluorescence. The discovery of this coordination compound is credited to the German chemist Leopold Gmelin. Potassium ferricyanide is believed to have been discovered in the year 1822. Initially, the primary application of this compound was in the dye industry for the preparation of ultramarine dyes. How is Potassium Ferricyanide Prepared? Potassium ferricyanide can be prepared on an industrial scale by obtaining a solution of 2K 4[Fe(CN) 6] + Cl 2 → 2KCl + 2K 3[Fe(CN) 6] Therefore, it can be understood that two molar equivalents of potassium chloride are obtained for each molar equivalent of chlorine gas passed through the potassium ferrocyanide solution. Structure of Potassium Ferricyanide Potassium ferricyanide is known to have an extremely complicated polymeric structure (as is usually the case...
