At room temperature(25 ℃), urea and ferric chloride hexahydrate(system Ⅰ) or f erric nitrate nonahydrate(system Ⅱ) in a mole ratio of 6∶1 were mixed and ground finely in an agate mortar for 6 hours, a direc t solid state reaction occurred. IR and elemental analysis confirmed the products obtained are the com- plexes of urea with ir on(Ⅲ).
