An Iron Oxide dye | [Description]
Iron blue is chemically referred to as ferric ammonium ferrocyanide Fe(Fe(CN)6)3. This material is generated through the reaction of sodium ferrocyanide and ferrous sulfate in the presence of ammonium sulfate. Pigments prepared with sodium or potassium salts are called ferric ferrocyanide. | [Origin]
Ferric hexacyanoferrate(II), known as Prussian blue, has the empirical formula Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3. It was probably synthesized for the first time by the paint maker Diesbach in Berlin in 1704, and it was one of the first synthetic pigments. A number of different, even if chemically related compounds, are named Prussian blue. Here this term refers only to insoluble ferric hexacyanoferrate(II)[1].

Prussian blue has a basic cubic structure consisting of alternating iron(II) and iron(III) located on a face centered cubic lattice, in such a way that the iron(III) ions are surrounded octahedrically by nitrogen atoms, and iron(II) ions are surrounded by carbon atoms[2]. |
