Manganese(IV) fluoride hydrofluoric acid. The pentafluoromanganate(1−) salts of potassium, rubidium and caesium, MMnF, can be prepared by fluorination of MMnF or by the reaction of [MnF(py)(HO)] with MF. The lemon-yellow heptafluoromanganate(3−) salts of the same metals, MMnF, have also been prepared. Manganese(IV) fluoride Manganese tetrafluoride, MnF, is the highest fluoride of manganese. It is a powerful oxidizing agent and is used as a means of purifying elemental fluorine. Manganese tetrafluoride was first unequivocally prepared in 1961 by the reaction of manganese(II) fluoride (or other Mn compounds) with a stream of fluorine gas at 550 °C: the MnF sublimes into the gas stream
Chemical clock can be added to some chemical clocks to build a chemical oscillator. For example, the Briggs-Rauscher reaction is derived from an iodine clock reaction by adding perchloric acid, malonic acid and manganese sulfate.. Chemical clock A chemical clock (or clock reaction) is a complex mixture of reacting chemical compounds in which the onset of an observable property occurs after a predictable induction time. In cases where one of the reagents has a visible color, crossing a concentration threshold can lead to an abrupt color change after a reproducible time lapse. One class of example is the iodine clock reactions, in
