THE THERMAL DISSOCIATION OF SOME METAL CUPFERRATE CHELATES,

Abstract

The thermal dissociation of the cupferron complexes with Cu(II), Ni, Co(II), Zn, Cd, Mn(II), Hg(II), Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr, Al, Fe(III), Ce(III), La, and Nd was studied by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and by pyrolysis into a mass spectrometer. The DTA curves consisted mainly of endothermic peaks although some contained exothermic peaks as well. The mass spectrometer showed that cupferron decomposes slightly above room temperature, giving off N2, NO, N2O, NH3 and H2O. A mechanism for the thermal dissociation of the copper(II) cupferrate is proposed. (Author)
