Manganese(VII) oxide (CAS NO.12057-92-0), is known as permanganic acid, is an inorganic compound with the formula Mn2O7. This volatile liquid is highly reactive . It is a dangerous oxidizer.It is soluble in CCl4, melts at only 5.9 °C, and sublimes at −10 °C.
Mn2O7 arises as a dark green oil by the addition of H2SO4 to KMnO4. The reaction initially produces permanganic acid, HMnO4 (structurally, HOMnO3), which spontaneously loses water to form its anhydride, Mn2O7.
2 KMnO4+ 2 H2SO4 → Mn2O7 + H2O + 2 KHSO4 ,Mn2O7 can react further with sulfuric acid to give the remarkable cation MnO3+, which is isoelectronic with CrO3:Mn2O7 + 2 H2SO4 → 2 [MnO3]+[HSO4]− + H2O Mn2O7 decomposes near room temperature, explosively so at > 55 °C. The explosion can be initiated by striking the sample or by its exposure to oxidizable organic compounds. The products are MnO2 and O2.Ozone is also produced, giving a strong smell to the substance.
Hazardous properties of Manganese(vii) oxide (CAS NO.12057-92-0) is explosives friction, shock, sparks, shock-sensitive explosive; with organic mixed explosive.Flammabily, it should be kept in drying; fire; anti-vibration, anti-friction, anti-shock environment, and stored separate with from organic matter, carbon dioxide, dry powder, sand, water mist fire extinguishing agent can be used if emergency.
