Калиев перманганат Калиев перманганат се нарича химическото съединение с формула KMnO4. В тази сол манганът е в степен на окисление +7. Перманганатният йон е силен окислител. Той се разтваря във вода и дава ярковиолетови разтвори, които след изпаряване дават призматични виолетовочерни лъскави кристали. [1] Не е добре да се приема вътрешно - много е отровен.За дезинфекция може да се използва разтвора на 2-3 кристалчета калиев перманганат в 1 литър вода (до бледорозов разтвор). Ако е по-голямо количество може да причини изгаряния на кожата. Ето няколко химични реакции с участието на калиевият перманганат. Приложения Почти всички приложения на калиевия перманганат са свързани със свойството му на силен окислител. Като силен оксидант, който не отделя токсични съпътстващи вещества, KMnO4 има много приложения. Калиевият перманганат е един от основните химикали, използван във филмовата и телевизионна индустрия за изкуствено състаряване на печатни материали, тъкани, дървесина и стъкло. Оксидиращият му ефект създава вид на остарял материал. Дезинфектант Тъй като е силен окислител, калиевият перманганат може да бъде използван като антисептично вещество. Например, разредени разтвори се използват за обработка на шанкърни поражения - язви, дезинфекция на ръцете и обработка на леки дерматити и гъбични инфекции на ръцете и краката. Исторически е бил използван за дезинфекция на питейната вода. В селски райони е използван за отделяне на желязото и водородния сулфид от отпадните води. Органичен синтез Освен за пречистване на води, друго голямо приложение на калиевия перманганат е като катализатор при синтезирането на някои органични съединения. Значителни количества са необходими при синтезиране на аскорбинова киселина, хлорамфеникол, захарин, изоникотинова киселина. Съхраняване на плодове Добавки от калиев перманганат към партида банани адсорбира етилена и удължава двойно периода на узряване на плодовете.

Potassium permanganate Background Information The articles in this Schools selection have been arranged by curriculum topic thanks to SOS Children volunteers. Sponsoring children helps children in the developing world to learn too. Potassium permanganate is the chemical compound KMnO4. In this salt, manganese is in the +7 oxidation state. The salt is also known as "permanganate of potash." The permanganate ion is a strong oxidizing agent. It dissolves in water to give deep purple solutions, evaporation of which gives prismatic purplish-black glistening crystals. It has a sweet flavour. Its crystal structure is orthorhombic with constants: a = 9.105, b = 5.720, c = 7.425 Å. Distance between Mn and O atoms in the tetrahedral anions is 1.629 Å. Preparation Potassium permanganate is manufactured on a large scale due to its manifold uses in the laboratory. In the first stage, pyrolusite, which is manganese dioxide in its natural form, is fused with potassium hydroxide and heated in air or with potassium nitrate (a source of oxygen). This leads to the formation of potassium manganate, which on electrolytic oxidation in alkaline solution gives potassium permanganate. - MnO2 + 2OH- + O2 → MnO42- + H2O - MnO42- + Cl2 → MnO4- + 2Cl- Permanganates can also be prepared by treating a solution of Mn2+ ions with very strong oxidising agents like lead dioxide, PbO2, or sodium bismuthate, NaBiO3, and these reactions have been used to test for the presence of manganese due to the formation of the distinctly violet colour of permanganate. Uses Almost all applications of potassium permanganate are derived from it being an oxidizing agent in diverse chemical reactions in the laboratory and in industry. Disinfectant and water treatment As an oxidant, potassium permanganate can act as a disinfectant. For example, dilute solutions are used as a treatment for canker sores (ulcers), disinfectant for the hands and treatment for mild pompholyx, dermatitis, and fungal infections of the hands or feet. Potassium permanganate, obtainable at pool supply stores, is used in rural areas to remove iron and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell) from well and waste water. KMnO4 diluted to 0.01% solution can be used for cleansing and deodorizing suppurating eczmatous reactions and wounds. It can also be used for treatment of athlete's foot at the same concentration. KMnO4 is however irritant to mucous membranes. A 0.05% solution of potassium permanganate could be used to treat oral and sinus infections. When used to flush out sinuses its irritating effect is milder than that of saline solution, yet the antimicrobial effect is greater. As a gurgle its effectiveness is similar to commercial mouthwash. Biomedical uses Dilute solution introduced into the uterus have been used to self-induce abortions. Insertion of the crystalline form as an abortifacient into the vagina has also been attempted, often resulting in severe injury. A dilute solution of acidified potassium permanganate is used in histology to bleach melanin which obscures tissue detail. Potassium permanganate can also be used to differentiate amyloid AA from other types of amyloid pathologically deposited in body tissues. Incubation of fixed tissue with potassium permanganate will prevent amyloid AA from staining with congo red whereas other types of amyloid are unaffected. Analytical chemistry Potassium permanganate can also be used to quantitatively determine the total oxidisable organic material in an aqueous sample. The value determined is known as the permanganate value. In analytical chemistry, a standardized aqueous solution of KMnO4 is sometimes used as an oxidizing titrant for redox titrations due to its deep purple colour. In a related way, it is used as a reagent to determine the Kappa number of wood pulp. Reactions Organic synthesis Dilute solutions of KMnO4 convert alkenes into diols (glycols). This behaviour is also used as a qualitative test for the presence of double or triple bonds in a molecule, since the reaction decolorizes the permanganate solution; thus it is sometimes referred to as Baeyer's reagent. However, bromine serves better in measuring unsaturation (double or triple bonds) quantitatively, since KMnO4, being a very strong oxidising agent can react with impurities in a sample. Under acidic conditions, the alkene double bond is cleaved to give the appropriate carboxylic acid: - CH3(CH2)17CH=CH2 + [O] → CH3(CH2)17COOH Potassium permanganate oxidizes aldehydes to carboxylic acids, such as with n- heptanal: - C6H13CHO + [O] → C6H13COOH Concentrated solutions oxidize a methyl group (or any other alkyl group with a benzylic hydrogen) on an aromatic ring, e.g. toluene to benzoic acid. KMnO4 oxidizes pseudoephedrine hydrochloride to produce methcathinone, a Schedule I drug in the United States. Consequently the DEA has restricted its use and sale by classifying it as a List II controlled precursor. Potassium permanganate is listed as a Table I precursor under the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. KMnO4 is also used in removal of impurities from coca base in the production of cocaine. The purer base results in aesthetically pleasing white crystals. Acids and KMnO4 Concentrated sulfuric acid reacts with KMnO4 to give Mn2O7, which can be explosive. Similarly concentrated hydrochloric acid gives chlorine. The Mn-containing products from redox reactions depend on the pH. Acidic solutions of permanganate are reduced to the faintly pink manganese(II) sulfate ([Mn(H2O)6]2+). In neutral solution, permanganate is only reduced by 3e− to give MnO2, wherein Mn is in a +4 oxidation state. This is the material that stains one's skin when handling KMnO4. KMnO4 spontaneously reduced in an alkaline solution to green K2MnO4, wherein manganese is in the +6 oxidation state. A curious reaction is produced by adding concentrated sulfuric acid to potassium permanganate. Although no reaction may be apparent, the vapor over the mixture will ignite paper impregnated with alcohol. Potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid react to produce some ozone, which has a high oxidising power and rapidly oxidises the alcohol, causing it to combust. As a similar reaction produces explosive Mn2O7, this should only be attempted with great care. An approximate equation for the ozone formation is shown below. - At room temperature - 6 KMnO4(aq) + 9 H2SO4(aq) → 6 MnSO4(aq) + 3 K2SO4(aq) + 9 H2O(l) + 5 O3(v) History In 1659 a German chemist, J.R. Glauber, fused a mixture of the mineral pyrolusite and potassium carbonate to obtain a material that, when dissolved in water, gave a green solution ( potassium manganate) which slowly shifted to violet potassium permanganate and then finally red. This report represents the first description of the production of potassium permanganate. Just under two hundred years later London chemist Henry Bollmann Condy had an interest in disinfectants, and marketed several products including ozonised water. He found that fusing pyrolusite with NaOH and dissolved it in water produced a solution with disinfectant properties. He patented this solution, and marketed it as Condy's Fluid. Although effective, the solution was not very stable. This was overcome by using KOH rather than NaOH. This was more stable, and had the advantage of easy conversion to the equally effective potassium permanganate crystals. This crystalline material was known as Condy’s crystals or Condy’s powder. Potassium permanganate was comparatively easy to manufacture so Condy was subsequently forced to spend considerable time in litigation in order to stop competitors from marketing products similar to Condy's Fluid or Condy's Crystals. Early photographers used it as a component of flash powder. It is now replaced with other oxidizers, due to the instability of permanganate mixtures. Safety Solid KMnO4 is a strong oxidizer and in general it should be kept separated from oxidizable substances. Dilute aqueous solutions of KMnO4 are not dangerous. KMnO4 forms dangerous products upon contact with concentrated acids. For instance, a reaction with concentrated sulfuric acid produces the highly explosive manganese(VII) oxide (Mn2O7). As an oxidizer, potassium permanganate stains the hand and clothing as it is reduced to MnO2. Clothing stains may be washed away using acetic acid. Skin stains, which are typically brown, disappear within 48 hours.
