Abstract: A Zinc(Ⅱ) complex [ZnCl2(HL)2] with Schiff base HL derived from rimantadine and salicylaldehyde was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, 1H NMR spectra,molar conductance, ultraviolet and visible spectra, thermal analysis. Its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The complex, C38H50Cl2N2O2Zn, crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Aba2 with a=1.381 7(3), b=2.275 0(5), c=1.145 0(2) nm, V=3.599(1) nm3, Z=4, Mr=653.79, F(000)=1 496, Dc=1.301 kg·m-3, μ(Mo Kα)=0.866 mm-1. The kinetic parameters were obtained from the analysis of TG curve by integral methods. The functions of thermal decomposition reaction mechanism are: F(α)=[1-(1-α)1/3]2, and kinetic compensation effect equation lnA=0.019 1E-0.142 7. CCDC: 253297. |
