Synthesis and isolation of cobalt hexacyanoferrate/chromate metal coordination nanopolymers stabilized by alkylamino ligand with metal elemental control.
This Communication describes the novel isolation with metal elemental control of cobalt hexacyanoferrate/chromate metal coordination polymers, stabilized by stearylamine (Co-Fe/Cr-SA) as a protecting coordination ligand in a reverse micelle technique. Each Co-Fe/Cr-SA can be isolated with high uniformity of particle size and elemental composition, and the ratio of the metal component depends on the fundamental characteristics of Co-Fe/Cr-SA: the nanopolymer's shape, color, and magnetism.
