Synthesis, Characterization and Thermal Decomposition Mechanism of Cetyltrimethyl Ammonium Tetrathiotungstate

The synthesis, characterization and thermal decomposition mechanism of cetyltrimethyl ammonium tetrathiotungstate （CTriMATT） were studied herein. The as-synthesized CTriMATT was characterized by Elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Fourier transform infrared （FT-IR）, Ultraviolet visible （UV-Vis） spectra. The results showed that the as-synthesized CTriMATT had high purity and good crystallinity. The introduction of alkyl groups induced a shift of the stretching vibration band of W-S bond to lower wavenumber, while it had no influence on the position of WS4^2-. Thermogravimetric analysis （TG）, differential thermal analysis （DTA） and in situ XRD characterizations revealed that CTriMATT began to decompose at 423 K in nitrogen and was converted to WS2 eventually. In addition, the decomposition product of CTriMATT at 673 K in nitrogen was characterized by N2 adsorption （BET） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results demonstrated that WS2 with higher specific surface area, and pore volume could be obtained from the thermal decomposition of CTriMATT in nitrogen.     

Kinetics and Mechanism of Liquid-Phase Thermal Decomposition of β-Cyanoethyl-N-nitramines

Termal decomposition of -cyanoethyl-N-nitramine in melt is preceded by protonation of the amino nitrogen atom and is accompanied by evolution of nitrogen(I) oxide with formation of acrylonitrile. Thermal decomposition of bis(-cyanoethyl)-N-nitramine under similar conditions follows a radical mechanism with initial dissociation of the NÄN bond. The same mechanism is operative in thermal decomposition of both N-nitramines in a dilute dibutyl phthalate solution.     

The Thermal Decomposition of Fe(NO3)3·9H2O

Using thermogravimetric analyses as well as isothermal gravimetric measurements, the thermal stability of the iron(III) nitrate nanohydrate has been determined. Several decomposition stages are the result of melting, evaporation and hydrolysis processes occurring in the salt—water system in the temperature range of 20–400°C. Some of the intermediates and the final product (-Fe₂O₃) are characterized by means of chemical analyses, X-ray diffraction patterns and IR spectra.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Syntheses,structural determination,and binding studies of nine-coordinate mononuclear (mnH)2[DyIII(Httha)]·3H2O and (enH2)3[DyIII(ttha)]2·9H2O

Two dysprosium coordination compounds, (mnH)₂[Dy^III(Httha)]·3H₂O (1) (H₆ttha?=?triethylenetetramine-N,N,N′,N″,N′′′,N′′′-hexaacetic acid and mn?=?methylamine) and (enH₂)₃[Dy^III(ttha)]₂·9H₂O (2) (en?=?ethylenediamine), were synthesized through direct heating and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, thermal analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray diffraction analysis displays that 1 is a mononuclear nine-coordinate complex with a pseudo-monocapped square antiprismatic conformation (MCSAP) crystallizing in the monoclinic crystal system with P2(1)/c space group. The crystal data are as follows: a?=?16.1363(19)?Å, b?=?13.9336(11)?Å, c?=?13.6619(14)?Å, β?=?102.2490(10)°, and V?=?3001.8(5)?ų. There are two kinds of methylamine cation in 1. They connect [Dy^III(Httha)]^2?and crystal waters through hydrogen bonds, leading to formation of a 2-D ladder-like layer structure. The polymeric 2 also is a nine-coordinate structure with a pseudo-MCSAP crystallizing in the monoclinic crystal system with P2/c space group. The cell dimensions are: a?=?17.7801(16)?Å, b?=?9.7035(10)?Å, c?=?22.096(2)?Å, β?=?118.874(2)°, and V?=?3338.3(6)?ų. In 2 there are also two types of ethylenediamine cations. One connects three adjacent [Dy^III(ttha)]^3? complex anions through hydrogen bonds and the other is symmetrical forming hydrogen bonds with two neighboring [Dy^III(ttha)]^3? complex anions. These hydrogen bonds result in formation of a 2-D ladder-like layer structure as well.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [Ni(H2O)6][Ni(H2O)2(C4H2O4)]·4H2O

Reaction of a freshly prepared Ni(OH)_{2?2 x} (CO₃) _x ·yH₂O with maleic acid in H₂O at room temperature afforded [Ni(H₂O)₆][Ni(H₂O)₂(C₄H₂O₄)]·4H₂O, which consists of [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cations, [Ni(H₂O)₂(C₄H₂O₄)]^2? anions and lattice H₂O molecules.

Cations and anions are interlinked by hydrogen bonds to form 1D chains, which are hexagonally arranged and connected by the lattice water molecules. When heated in a flowing argon stream, the compound decomposes, with complete dehydration being followed by dissociation of nickel maleate into NiO and maleic anhydride.     

The thermal dehydration and decomposition of Ba[Cu(C2O4)2(H2O)]·5H2O

The thermal behaviour of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂(H₂O)]·5H₂O in N₂ and in O₂ has been examined using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The dehydration starts at relatively low temperatures (about 80°C), but continues until the onset of the decomposition (about 280°C). The decomposition takes place in two major stages (onsets 280 and 390°C). The mass of the intermediate after the first stage corresponded to the formation of barium oxalate and copper metal and, after the second stage, to the formation of barium carbonate and copper metal. The enthalpy for the dehydration was found to be 311±30 kJ mol^–1 (or 52±5 kJ (mol of H₂O)^–1). The overall enthalpy change for the decomposition of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂] in N₂ was estimated from the combined area of the peaks of the DSC curve as –347 kJ mol^–1. The kinetics of the thermal dehydration and decomposition were studied using isothermal TG. The dehydration was strongly deceleratory and the -time curves could be described by the three dimensional diffusion (D3) model. The values of the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor for the dehydration were 125±4 kJ mol^–1 and (1.38±0.08)×10¹⁵ min^–1, respectively. The decomposition was complex, consisting of at least two concurrent processes. The decomposition was analysed in terms of two overlapping deceleratory processes. One process was fast and could be described by the contracting-geometry model withn=5. The other process was slow and could also be described by the contracting-geometry model, but withn=2.The values ofE _a andA were 206±23 kJ mol^–1 and (2.2±0.5)×10¹⁹ min^–1, respectively, for the fast process, and 259±37 kJ mol^–1 and (6.3±1.8)×10²³ min^–1, respectively, for the slow process.Dedicated to Prof. Menachem Steinberg on the occasion of his 65th birthday
