Abstract
An aqueous synthetic procedure for preparing nanoparticles of the novel potassium bismuth ferrocyanide coordination polymer KBi(H(2)O)(2)[Fe(CN)(6)]·H(2)O is reported. The crystal structure of this coordination polymer is determined through X-ray powder diffraction using the bulk materials. The stability, cytotoxicity, and potential use of such nanoparticles coated with PVP as a CT contrast agent are investigated.
