Description
This compound appears as yellow-green to black-green crystalline blocks or powder with a metallic luster. It is slightly soluble in water, producing a reddish-purple solution, and is readily soluble in alcohol, yielding a red solution. It turns yellow-brown when mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid and becomes nearly colorless upon dilution. When aqueous solutions are treated with sodium hydroxide, a nearly colorless liquid with a red precipitate is formed. pH: 5–6 (1g/L, H₂O, 20°C). Melting point: 235°C (decomposes).
