Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa).

Preparation

edit

Cadmium permanganate can be obtained by reacting cadmium sulfate and barium permanganate. After removing the barium sulfate precipitate, the solution is crystallized in the dark:[1]

Ba(MnO4)2 + CdSO4 → Cd(MnO4)2 + BaSO4

Cadmium permanganate can also be produced by reacting manganese heptoxide with cadmium oxide[2] or cadmium hydroxide.[3]

Properties

edit

Cadmium permanganate hexahydrate loses water of crystallisation at 61~62 °C, and anhydrate can be obtained at a constant temperature of 90 °C. The anhydrous form begins to decompose at 108 °C:[3]

Cd(MnO4)2 → CdMnO3 + MnO2 + 3/2 O2
