Synthesis, characterization and thermal behaviour of solid 2-methoxycinnamylidenepyruvate of light trivalent lanthanides

Solid state Ln-2-MeO-CP compounds, where Ln stands for light trivalent lanthanides (La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd) and 2-MeO-CP is 2-methoxycinnamylidenepyruvate, were synthesized in this work. Simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffractometry, experimental and theoretical infrared spectroscopy and complexometry were used to characterize and to study the thermal behaviour of these compounds. The results led to information regarding the composition and stability of the isolated complexes

The TG-DSC curves show that the hydrated compounds dehydrate in a single step of mass loss and the thermal stability of the anhydrous compound is little influenced from the atmosphere used. On the other hand, the mechanisms of thermal decomposition are profoundly influenced by the atmosphere used, as can also be observed in the EGA data. In addition, a comparison between two calorimetric techniques, Microwave Thermal Analysis (MWTA) and DSC, was made which showed similar profiles. Two evolved gas analysis (EGA) techniques: TG-DSC coupled to FTIR and HSM coupled to a quadrupole mass spectrometer (MS) were also used to provide additional information about the pyrolysis mechanism.Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Instituto de QuímicaThermal Methods Research Unit Department of Chemistry University of Huddersfield, HuddersfieldInstituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia do Paraná (IFPR)Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia de Rondônia (IFRO)Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Faculdade de Ciências Departamento de QuímicaUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Instituto de QuímicaUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Faculdade de Ciências Departamento de Químic
