- Abstract
Monometallic complexes [Cudadb· yHO] ( 2) and [Nidadb· yHO] ( 3) and heterobimetallic complex [CuNidadb· yHO] ( 4) {where dadbH = 2,5-Diamino-3,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone ( 1); y = 2-4; n = degree of polymerization} were characterized by elemental analysis, atomic absorption spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and powder X-ray diffraction. The thermal behaviour of the complexes was studied by thermal analysis (TG/DTA) under air as well as under helium atmospheres. The released gaseous products were investigated by evolved gas analysis performed by an online coupled mass spectrometer (TG/DTA-MS). Thermal degradation of 2 under helium atmosphere is distributed over five steps, whereas 3 and 4 exhibited only four degradation steps due to overlap of second and third degradation steps of into one major step. All the complexes exhibit three steps degradation under air. The complex 2 loses NH group in the second and HCl/Cl, CO groups simultaneously in third steps of decomposition under helium, whereas it loses NH and CO groups simultaneously in low temperature region of second step of degradation under air atmosphere as the loss of CO group is facilitated by air. EGA-MS under air and helium atmospheres shows that HCl, CO/CO and (CN) fragments are lost simultaneously at multiple steps, and not successively as predicted earlier. Rate of evolution of most evolved gases exhibits several maxima as a consequence of degradation followed by recombination reactions. Final residues under air and helium atmospheres correspond to the metal oxides and metals along with some carbonaceous matter.
