Manganese(III) fluoride Manganese(III) fluoride Manganese(III) fluoride (also known as Manganese trifluoride) is the inorganic compound with the formula MnF. This red/purplish solid is useful for converting hydrocarbons into fluorocarbons, i.e., it is a fluorination agent. It forms a hydrate and many derivatives. MnF can be prepared by treating a solution of MnF in hydrogen fluoride with fluorine: It can also be prepared by the reaction of elemental fluorine with a manganese(II) halide at ~250 °C. Like vanadium(III) fluoride, MnF features octahedral metal centers with the same average M-F bond distances. In the Mn compound, however, is distorted (and hence a monoclinic unit
Manganese, Minnesota crack through the concrete sidewalks. In the 1990s, a majority of the land was purchased. It is now privately owned and has a "no trespassing" sign posted on the gate of the southeastern part of the city. Presently, the area is consumed entirely by the growth of natural vegetation. Although the grid pattern of roads remains, the roads have either disintegrated or have been completely overtaken by grass, trees, and shrubs. The sheer height of the trees expose what has become of land once occupied by numerous buildings. Manganese is a classic example of a "ghost town." Manganese, Minnesota Manganese
