| Barium manganate Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Barium manganate (chemical formula BaMnO4) is a type of manganates in which the manganese is in a +6 oxidation state. It is obtained by heating manganese dioxide with barium carbonate or nitrate, or by precipitating potassium manganate with barium chloride.1 Barium manganate gives a green pigment, which was used to make manganese blue. Barium manganate can be used in the oxidation of a variety of functional groups efficiently and selectively: alcohols to carbonyls, alcohols to aldehydes, diols to lactones, thiols to disulfides, aromatic amines to azo-compounds, hydroquinone to p-benzoquinone, benzylamine to benzaldehyde, etc. 2,3

| Chemical Properties | blue to dark blue-black fine crystalline powder | Uses | Useful for the selective oxidation of diols. | Uses | As pigment in fresco painting instead of Scheele's green because not so poisonous as latter. As mild oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. | Purification Methods | Wash the salt with conductivity H2O by decantation until the supernatant gives a faint test for Ba2+ . Remove excess H2O in a vacuum (IMPORTANT), then heat at 100o and the last traces of H2O are removed in a vacuum desiccator over P2O5. Store it over KOH. It disproportionates in hot H2O or dilute acid into Ba(MnO2)2 and MnO2, and is a mild oxidant. [Schlezinger & Siems J Am Chem Soc 46 1965 1924, Nyholm & Woolliams Inorg Synth XI 56 1968.] |
