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 Mines Mines Wildlife Management Area, a conservation area. The main industry is now farming. The name of this community derives from the discovery and mining of manganese here, beginning in the 1880s and ending in the 1890s. Also, Lafarge Canada operated a limestone quarry at Manganese Mines which closed in 1996. The limestone was used to produce cement. Manganese Mines Manganese Mines is an unincorporated community in Colchester County, Nova Scotia, Canada. This community is located about six miles north-east of Truro, between the South Branch North River and the Salmon River. The land was previously part of Onslow Township. It
