Abstract: Four ternary solid complexes were synthesized with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaEt2dtc)(b), 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen) (c) and hydrated lanthanide chlorides in absolute ethanol by an improved reported method. The complexes were identified as the general formula of RE(Et2dtc)3(phen) (RE=La, Pr, Nd, Sm) by chemical and elemental analyses. IR spectra of the complexes showed that the RE3+ was coordinated with sulfur atoms of NaEt2dtc and nitrogen atoms of o-phen. The constant-volume combustion energies of complexes, ΔcU, were determined by a precise rotating-bomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. The standard enthalpies of combustion, ΔcHm?, and standard enthalpies of formation, ΔfHm?, were calculated for these complexes, respectively. |
