Manganese trimetallic complexes

In this paper a study is presented on the preparation of a series of supported catalysts by precipitation of metal cyanide complexes in the presence of suspended supports. As supports alumina, titania, and silica, have been used. The metals studied comprise iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, manganese, palladium, and molybdenum. Both monometallic, bimetallic and even trimetallic cyanides were precipitated. The stoichiometry of the precipitated complexes was controlled by the valency of the metal ions and by using both nitroprusside and cyanide complexes. Electron microscopy was used to evaluate the distribution of the deposited complex cyanides on the supports. 57Fe-M6ssbauer spectra were measured on the dried precipitated complexes to gain information on the chemical composition of the iron containing complexes.
