Talk:Ceric ammonium nitrate

Let's move this to Ceric ammonium nitrate

Comments? Ceric ammonium nitrate is what everyone calls this stuff except for a few nomenclaturists.--Smokefoot 05:09, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

E^ovalue

Under the header key reactions it is stated CAN is a stronger oxidizing agent than Cl₂ with E° ~ 0.96 V vs. N.H.E. This sounds odd to me and when I check this value against the value mentioned in Standard electrode potential (data page) of chlorine (E° ~ 1.36 V vs. N.H.E) the oddity remains. Who is able to solve the dilemma? T.vanschaik (talk) 13:35, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

(NH4)2Ce(SO4)3 redirects here, it is also a vary safe oxidizer(electron stripper) but it should have its own page or at least be mentioned here. perhaps a link to Cerium(IV) sulfate Daniel lightforge (talk) 21:00, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Structure in solution

Saw this, might be useful: Demars, Thomas J.; Bera, Mrinal K.; Seifert, Soenke; Antonio, Mark R.; Ellis, Ross J. (2015). "Revisiting the Solution Structure of Ceric Ammonium Nitrate". Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 54 (26): 7534–7538. doi:10.1002/anie.201502336. "In nitric acid solutions a dinuclear oxo bridged structure is found, suggesting CAN is able to act as a two-electron transfer reagent, and not as generally assumed a one-electron transfer reagent.". --Ben (talk) 15:13, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
