“…Currently, there is a significant number of publications that examine the influence of the choice of organic "fuel" (for example, citric acid, glycine, urea, etc. ), as well as the ratio of the initial components of the reaction (excess, deficiency or stoichiometric amount of "fuel" in relation to metal compounds) on the phase composition of the final product [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. However, intermediate stages of synthesis, such as the formation and structuring of gels, as well as the influence of these processes on the characteristics of the final product, have been little studied.…”

In this study, the influence of initial reagents on the phase composition and morphology of magnesium ferrite obtained by combustion of glycine-nitrate gel was investigated. The local environment of iron ions in the gel-precursor was studied in detail using FT-IR, XANES-and EXAFS-spectroscopy. It has been established that in the gel-precursor obtained by dissolving metals (Mg, Fe) in dilute nitric acid, binuclear Fe(III) complexes are formed, while in a similar gel-precursor obtained from crystalline hydrates of nitrates of the corresponding metals, trinuclear Fe(III) complexes predominate. Combustion of a gel consisting of binuclear Fe(III) complexes leads to the formation of nanocrystalline magnesium ferrite powder, characterized by a unimodal particle size distribution.
