Seven-coordinated scandium(iii) chloroions in ScCl3–CsCl molten mixtures at 600–900 °C
Abstract
Raman spectroscopic measurements of ScCl3–CsCl molten mixtures in the temperature range of 600–900 °C and compositions up to 25 mol% ScCl3 indicate that the predominant scandium(III) chloroions in these melts are ScCl3−6 and a novel all chloride highly coordinated ScCl4−7.
