What Is Ammonium Metavanadate?
Ammonium metavanadate is the inorganic compound with the formula NH4VO3. It is a white solid, although samples are often yellow owing to impurities of V2O5. It is an important intermediate in the purification of vanadium.
Vanadium is often purified from aqueous extracts of slags and ore by selective precipitation of ammonium metavanadate. The material is then roasted to give vanadium pentoxide:
- 2 NH4VO3 → V2O5 + 2 NH3 + H2O
Vanadates can behave as structural mimics of phosphates, and in this way, they exhibit biological activity.
Ammonium metavanadate is used to prepare Mandelin reagent, a qualitative test for alkaloids.
Ammonium metavanadate appears as a white crystalline powder. Slightly soluble in water and denser than water. Decomposes at 410°F. May release toxic fumes. Moderately toxic. An irritant. Used as a dryer for paints and inks, and for dyes. Loses ammonia upon heating.
