Electronic spectroscopy of some transition metal ion compounds in a new ionic liquid.
The behavior of some transition metal cations [Cr (III), Fe (III), Fe (II), Co (II), Ni (II) and Cu (II)] were investigated in ammonium alumurea ionic liquid. The study was followed by UV-Visible electronic
spectroscopy to establish their coordination geometry in the liquid and estimate the ionic species attached to the transition metal cations.The reactivity of the metal cations were found to vary from one to
