Spectroscopic Studies of Transition-Metal Ions in Molten Alkali-Metal Carboxylates

摘要

This paper presents the results of electronic absorption and sup 13 C-NMR measurements on molten alkali metal formates and acetates and on solutions of selected 3d transition metal ions therein. These studies provide a unique opportunity to explore (1) the highly ordered nature of alkali carboxylates, (2) the ligand field properties of acetate and formate ions, and (3) the coordination chemistry of the 3d transition metals in molten carboxylates. 1 figure, 2 tables.
