Abstract
The solid-state thermal decomposition of the tetrabridged dinuclear MnII, FeII, CoII, NiII, and CuII pivalate complexes with apical α-substituted pyridine ligands containing different substituents (2,3-dimethylpyridine or quinoline) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry. The decomposition of the CoII complexes is accompanied by the aggregation to form the volatile octanuclear complex Co8(μ4-O)2(μn-OOCCMe3)12, where n = 2 or 3, whereas the thermolysis of the MnII, FeII, NiII, and CuII complexes is accompanied by the degradation of the starting compounds, the phase composition of the decomposition products being substantially dependent on the nature of metal and the apical organic ligand.
