Description: Simplified ball-and-stick model of iron coordination in the crystal structure of Prussian blue, Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3·xH2O where x = 14-16, reported in Inorg. Chem. (1980) 19, 956-959 (CSD entry 1591428, ICSD entry 1277). This simplified model ignores the structural disorder as well as the coordinated, hydrogen bonded and free water molecules that are present in Prussian blue. Colour code:   Iron, Fe: orange   Carbon, C: grey   Nitrogen, N: blue Model manipulated in Avogadro 1.2 and image generated in CCDC Mercury 3.8.
