Abstract

Electrolytic oxidation of an aqueous suspension of MnF2 containing NH4F, and subsequent crystallization in 40% HF yields yellow crystals of (NH4)(2)MnF6. It crystallizes in the hexagonal K2MnF6 type structure with the space group P6(3)mc and a = 5.903; c = 9.565 Angstrom; Z = 2. With in situ powder diffraction studies it is shown, that (NH4)(2)MnF6 is gradually reduced in a NH3 atmosphere between 30 and 230 degrees C to afford (NH4)(3)MnF6, (NH4)(2)MnF5, and finally NH4MnF3. (NH4)(3)MnF6, thereby, forms a hitherto unknown cubic (a = 9.082 Angstrom) high temperature modification with the cryolite type structure. Under N-2 the thermal decomposition of (NH4)(2)MnF6 proceeds via NH4MnF4 to yield MnF2.
