Abstract

Prussian blue and Turnbull's blue are two known compounds to undergraduate chemistry students. These two pigments are frequently synthesized in chemistry laboratories during the qualitative tests for the detection of nitrogen as a special element in organic compounds and spot tests in the classical analytical chemistry of iron. However, these compounds have a rich history and exciting chemistry that any chemistry student should be aware of. The objective of this article is to familiarize chemistry students to the interesting history and chemistry of Prussian blue and Turnbull’s blue.
