“…Metal aqua and chloro complexes play an important role in hydrometallurgical processes, especially involving the adsorption/ desorption process on/from ion exchangers, organic solvents, or ionic liquids. [1][2][3] The distribution of chloride complexes in brines is also signicant information in the geochemistry eld, used to simulate the ow of metal resources in the deep sea. 4 A metal aqua and chloro complex exhibits a beautiful transparent colour depending on the elements and the concentration of Cl in aqueous solutions.…”
