Ferrate
Ferrate loosely refers to a material that can be viewed as containing anionic iron complexes. The term ferrate derives . Examples include tetrachloroferrate ( ), oxyanions (e.g. ), and the organoferrates, including highly reduced tetracarbonylferrate ( ) salts. Although rarely studied, ferrate(V) and ferrate(IV) ) oxyanions of iron also exist. These too are called ferrates.
