Synthesis and thermal decomposition of double complex containing copper and 1,3-diaminopropane

The synthesis, properties and thermolysis products of double complex compounds with composition [Cupn]2[Fe(CN)6] 4H 2O (I), [Cupn]3[Fe(CN) 6h-8H2O (II) and [Cu(pn) 2] 3[Fe(CN) 6] 2-5H 2O-KCl (III) (pn - 1,3-diaminopropane) in air, H 2 and Ar atmosphere in range of 150-900 °С have been studied. The products of oxidative thermolysis were metal oxides. By I and II thermolysis in H 2 and Ar obtained Cu 0 and Fe 0, with admixture of their oxides and FeC. By III thermolysis in H 2 and Ar atmosphere at 200-500 °С the product was Cu 2[Fe(CN) 6], but at > 500 °С the products were Cu 0, FeC and KCl (in Ar atmosphere with Fe and Cu oxides admixture).
