In inorganic nomenclature, a manganate is any negatively charged moelcular entity with manganese as the central atom. However, the name is usually used to refer to the tetraoxidomanganate(2−) anion, MnO2−4, also known as manganate(VI) because it contains manganese in the +6 oxidation state. Manganates are the only known manganese(VI) compounds.[1]
Manganate(VI)
The manganate(VI) ion is tetrahedral, similar to sulfate or chromate: indeed, manganates are often isostructural with sulfates and chromates. As a d1 ion, it is paramagnetic.
Preparation
Sodium and potassium manganates are usually prepared in the laboratory by stirring the equivalent permanganate in a concentrated solution (5–10 M) of the hydroxide for 24 hours.[2]
- 4 MnO−4 + 4 OH− → {{nowrap|4 MnO2−4 + 2 H2O + O2
Potassium manganate is prepared industrially, as intermediates to potassium permanganate, by dissolving manganese dioxide in molten potassium hydroxide with potassium nitrate or air as the oxidizing agent.[1]
- 2 MnO2 + 4 OH− + O2 → 2 MnO2−4 + 2 H2O
