In Ferrocyphen is complex -bound iron (II), which two (1.10) - phenanthroline ligands and two cyanide ion is coordinated. This forms an electrically neutral chelate complex .
Ferrocyphene serves as a redox indicator in redox titrations (e.g. nitritometry ) , as the color of the complex changes from yellow (Fe 2+ , ferrocyphene) to purple (Fe 3+ , ferricyphene) through oxidation .
It is also used in the titration of weak bases in non-aqueous media and for aromatic diazotization titrations.
presentation
The best representation in the laboratory is the displacement of 1,10-phenanthroline ligands (phen) from the tris (1,10-phenanthroline) iron (II) cation by cyanide ions.
- ->
Other ways, such as the displacement of cyanide ions by phenanthroline, are significantly slower and in lower yield. The direct combination of an iron (II) solution with equimolar amounts of potassium cyanide and 1,10-phenanthroline initially provides a mix of different complexes whose rearrangement to the desired product takes too long to be practical.
