Synthesis, Thermal Analysis, Spectroscopic Properties, and Degradation Process of Tutton Salts Doped with AgNO₃ or H₃BO₃.

ABSTRACT: In this work, we synthesized and studied the spectroscopic properties of (NH₄)₂(SO₄)₂Y(H₂O)₆ (Y = Ni, Mg) crystals doped with AgNO₃ or H₃BO₃. These crystals constitute a series of hexahydrated salts known as Tutton salts. We investigated the influence of dopants on the vibrational modes of the tetrahedral ligands NH₄ and SO₄, octahedral complexes Mg(H₂O)₆ and Ni(H₂O)₆, and H₂O molecules present in these crystals through Raman and infrared spectroscopies. We were able to identify bands that are attributed to the presence of Ag and B dopants, as well as band shifts caused by the presence of these dopants in the crystal
