Etg. Cavalheiro et al., The thermal behaviour of nickel, copper and zinc complexes with the Schiffbases cis- and trans-N,N '-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-ciclohexadiamine (Salcn), THERMOC ACT, 370(1-2), 2001, pp. 129-133
The Schiff base complexes were prepared and characterised by UV, IR and NMR
(H-1 and C-13) spectroscopy, elemental analysis and X-ray powder diffracto
metry. Free ligands and some new complexes were submitted to thermal analys
is (TG and DSC) under dynamic air atmosphere. The differences in the decomp
osition profiles were related to the structure of isomers and decomposition
intermediates were characterised according to their X-ray diffraction patt
ern. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
