Abstract
Abstract Former experiments on molten FeCl3 have shown that, as for AlCl3 , melting is accompanied by a transition from sixfold to essentially fourfold coordination. However, in contrast to AICI3, the FeCl3 melt near freezing has an appreciable ionic conductivity. We propose a model for the structure of FeCl3 melt as consisting of closely packed Fe2Cl6 bitetrahedral molecules in equilibrium with (Fe2Cl5) + and (Fe2Cl7)- ionised species.
