Inclusion Compounds of Tetracyano Complexes and Their Electrical Properties
The presence of iodine and iodide ions in tetracyanonickelates inclusion compounds with the general formula Ni(B) m Ni(CN) 4 . n H 2 O (B = NH 3 or ethylenediamine) changes the properties of these compounds. High frequency conductance measurements in the range of 10 - 105 Hz show that the products with ethylenediamine ligands have a higher electrical conductivity than those with NH 3 ligands. The differences in the electrical properties between the compounds studied are mainly caused by chemical composition, structure and morphology.
