Chemical compound
Caesium oxalate (standard IUPAC spelling), or dicesium oxalate , or cesium oxalate (American spelling) is a chemical compound with the chemical formula Cs 2 C 2 O 4 . It is a caesium salt of oxalic acid . It consists of caesium cations Cs+ and oxalate anions C2 O2− 4 .
Preparation
Caesium oxalate can be prepared by passing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide over caesium carbonate at 380 °C:[ 2]
Cs2 CO3 + CO → Cs2 C2 O4
Other alkali carbonates do not undergo transformation to oxalate.[ 2]
Caesium carbonate can react with oxalic acid in aqueous solution to give caesium oxalate.[ 3]
Cs2 CO3 + H2 C2 O4 ·2H2 O → Cs2 C2 O4 ·H2 O + CO2 + 2 H2 O
Chemical Reactions
Caesium oxalate can be reduced back into caesium carbonate and carbon monoxide by thermal decomposition .
Cs2 C2 O4 → Cs2 CO3 + CO
Double salts
Compounds that contain caesium and another element in addition to the oxalate anion are double salts of caesium and oxalate. The oxalate may form a complex with a metal that can make a salt with caesium.
