Thermal decomposition of N-1,N-4-diarylidene-S-methylthiosemicarbazone dioxouranium(VI) templates

Abstract

The solvated dioxouranium(VI) complexes [UO2(L)S] (S = H2O, methyl, ethyl-, iso-amyl-, n-octyl- and n-undecyl-alcohol) were prepared from salicyl- and 5-bromosalicylaldehyde S-methylthiosemicarbazones. The templates were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility, and molar conductivity. The thermal stability of the compounds was investigated in air depending on the solvent molecule.
