Melting and thermal decomposition of [Ni(H2O)6](NO3)2

The two-stage melting process and the thermal decomposition of [Ni(H₂O)₆](NO₃)₂ was studied by DSC, DTA and TG. The first melting point at 328 K is connected with the small and the second melting point at 362 K with the large enthalpy and entropy changes. The thermal dehydration process starts just above ca. 315 K and continues up to ca. 500 K. It consists of three well-separated stages, but the sample mass loss at each stage depends on the experimental regime. However, irrespective of the chosen regime, the total of registered mass losses in stage one and two amounts to three H₂O molecules per one [Ni(H₂O)₆](NO₃)₂ molecule. The remaining three H₂O molecules are gradually freed in the temperature range of 440–500 K in the third stage of the dehydration. Above 580 K, anhydrous Ni(NO₃)₂ decomposes into NO and NiO. The gaseous products were identified by quadrupole mass spectrometer (QMS), and the solid product was identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis.     

Non-equivalent water molecules in [Ni(H2O)6](ClO4)2 and in [Ni(D2O)6](ClO4)2 in the thermogravimetric investigations

The thermal decomposition of [Ni(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂ and [Ni(D₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂ were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and simultaneous differential thermal analysis (SDTA) at a constant heating rate. The gaseous products of the decomposition were on-line identified by a quadrupole mass spectrometer (QMS). In both cases the process of decomposition starts at ca. 410 K and is connected with removal of water molecules in a stepwise way; at the beginning the first water molecule is lost, then the second and at higher temperature the third one. The rest of the water molecules are lost in the temperature region of ClO₄⁻ decomposition. The energy of activation of the process was calculated in both cases.

Thermogravimetry of the analytical precipitates M2Pb[Co(NO2)6] AND MPb[Co(NO2)6]

Thermogravimetric studies are reported for analytical precipitates of the types MPb[Co(NO₂)₆] and M₂Pb[Co(NO₂)₆], where M represents the univalent cations NH⁺₄, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺, and Tl⁺. Compounds of the latter series are consitently more stable to higher temperatures. For either series increasing the radius of M increases thermal stability. Decomposition to temperatures approaching 500°C involves some four separate processes.     

Thermally induced linkage isomerization in KCd[Fe(CN)6]

Heating KCd[Fe(CN)₆]-5H₂O, either isothermally or in a differential scanning calorimeter, results in dehydration and linkage isomerization of the cyanides. In accord with hard—soft acid—base predictions, the product contains cyanide C-bonded to Cd₂₊. The integrated intensity of the peaks corresponding to the CN stretching vibrations indicates that two of the cyanides change bonding mode more readily than the others. Cyanide isomerization does not occur when KCd[Fe(CN)₆]-5H₂O is dehydrated at room temperature under vacuum conditions.
