Terbium(III,IV) oxide, occasionally called tetraterbium heptaoxide, has the formula Tb4O7, though some texts refer to it as TbO1.75. There is some debate as to whether it is a discrete compound, or simply one phase in an interstitial[disambiguation needed] oxide system. Tb4O7 is one of the main commercial terbium compounds, and the only such product containing at least some Tb(IV) (terbium in the +4 oxidation state), along with the more stable Tb(III). It is produced by heating the metal oxalate, and it is used in the preparation of other terbium compounds. Terbium forms three other majoroxides: Tb2O3, TbO2, and Tb6O11.

Synthesis

Tb4O7 is most often produced by ignition of the oxalate at or the sulfate in air.The oxalate (at 1000 °C) is generally preferred, since the sulfate requires a higher temperature, and it produces an almost black product contaminated with Tb6O11 or other oxygen-rich oxides.

Chemical properties

Terbium(III,IV) oxide loses O2 when heated at high temperatures; at more moderate temperatures (ca. 350 °C) it reversibly loses oxygen, as shown by exchange with18O2. This property, also seen in Pr6O11 and V2O5, allows it to work like V2O5 as a redox catalyst in reactions involving oxygen. It was found as early as 1916 that hot Tb4O7 catalyses the reaction of coal gas (CO + H2) with air, leading to incandescence and often ignition.

Tb4O7 reacts with atomic oxygen to produce TbO2, but a more convenient preparation of TbO2 is by disproportionation of Tb4O7. This is performed by refluxing with an excess of an equal mixture of concentrated acetic acid and hydrochloric acids for 30 minutes, producing terbium(III) chloride andwater.

Tb4O7(s) + 6 HCl (aq) → 2 TbO2(s) + 2 TbCl3 (aq) + 3 H2O (l)

Tb4O7 reacts with other hot concentrated acids to produce terbium(III) salts. For example, reaction with sulfuric acid gives terbium(III) sulfate. Terbium oxide reacts slowly with hydrochloric acid to form terbium(III) chloride solution, and elemental chlorine. At ambient temperature, complete dissolution might require a month; in a hot water bath, about a week.
