Abstract

A 3D supramolecule (H3O)2[Cu(2,6-pdc)2]·H2O (pdc = pyridinedicarboxylate) has been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and FT-IR spectrum. The thermal decomposition characteristics of the complex were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, which revealed a three-step mass loss process. The low-temperature molar heat capacities of crystalline (H3O)2[Cu(2,6-pdc)2]·H2O were measured by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry for the first time. A phenomenon of glass transition was observed. The thermodynamic parameters such as entropy and enthalpy relative to 298.15 K were calculated based on the above molar heat capacity data.
