Praseodymium(III) acetate

Praseodymium(III) acetate is an inorganic salt composed of a Praseodymium atom trication and three acetate groups as anions. This compound commonly forms the dihydrate, Pr(O2C2H3)3·2H2O.[2]

Preparation

edit

Praseodymium(III) acetate can be formed by the reaction of acetic acid and praseodymium(III) oxide:[3]

 

Praseodymium(III) carbonate and praseodymium(III) hydroxide can also be used:

 
 

Structure

edit

According to X-ray crystallography, anhydrous praseodymium acetate is a coordination polymer. Each Pr(III) center is nine-coordinate, with two bidentate acetate ligands and the remaining sites occupied by oxygens provided by bridging acetate ligands. The lanthanum and holmium compounds are isostructural.[4]

Decomposition

edit

When the dihydrate is heated, it decomposes to the anhydrous, which then decomposes into praseodymium(III) oxyacetate(PrO(O2C2H3)) then to praseodymium(III) oxycarbonate, and at last to praseodymium(III) oxide.[2]
