Thermochemical study on ternary complex of dysprosium <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-nitrobenzoic acid with <Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>-phenanthroline

A ternary binuclear complex of dysprosium chloride hexahydrate with m-nitrobenzoic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline, Dy(m-NBA)₃phen]₂·4H₂O (m-NBA: m-nitrobenzoate; phen: 1,10-phenanthroline) was synthesized. The dissolution enthalpies of 2phen·H₂O(s)], 6m-HNBA(s)], 2DyCl₃·6H₂O(s)], and Dy(m-NBA)₃phen]₂·4H₂O(s) in the calorimetric solvent (V_DMSO:V_MeOH = 3:2) were determined by the solution–reaction isoperibol calorimeter at 298.15 K to be \Updelta_\texts H_\textm^q \Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } 2phen·H₂O(s), 298.15 K] = 21.7367 ± 0.3150 kJ·mol⁻¹, \Updelta_\texts H_\textm^q \Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } 6m-HNBA(s), 298.15 K] = 15.3635 ± 0.2235 kJ·mol⁻¹, \Updelta_\texts H_\textm^q \Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } 2DyCl₃·6H₂O(s), 298.15 K] = −203.5331 ± 0.2200 kJ·mol⁻¹, and \Updelta_\texts H_\textm^q \Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } Dy(m-NBA)₃phen]₂·4H₂O(s), 298.15 K] = 53.5965 ± 0.2367 kJ·mol⁻¹, respectively. The enthalpy change of the reaction was determined to be \Updelta_\textr H_\textm^q = 3 6 9. 4 9 ±0. 5 6   \textkJ·\textmol ^{- 1} . \Updelta_{\text{r}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } = 3 6 9. 4 9 \pm 0. 5 6 {\text{kJ}}\cdot {\text{mol}}^{ - 1} . According to the above results and the relevant data in the literature, through Hess’ law, the standard molar enthalpy of formation of Dy(m-NBA)₃phen]₂·4H₂O(s) was estimated to be \Updelta_\textf H_\textm^q \Updelta_{\text{f}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } Dy(m-NBA)₃phen]₂·4H₂O(s), 298.15 K] = −5525 ± 6 kJ·mol⁻¹.
