Determination of Melting Point of Oligomer Metal Complexes Derived from Bisamic Acid of Pyromellitic Dianhydride and 4-Bromoaniline by Capillary Method (CAT#: STEM-PPA-0114-YJL)

Introduction

The design and construction of polymeric metal complexes have received great attention. The structures of metal complexes are depending upon the structure of the organic ligands, the coordinative geometry of metal ions, metalligand ratio, and other factors. Among various organic ligands, multicarboxylate ligands are often used to synthesize polymer metal complexes; for example, 1,2,4,5-benzene-tetra carboxylate, 3,3’ , 4,4’-biphenyl tetra carboxylic acid,1,1’-biphenyl-2,3’,3,4’-tetra carboxylic acid, and methylene diisophthalic acid have been extensively used for the synthesis of various polymer metal complexes. On the other hand, the use of auxiliary N-containing ligands is also an effective method for the framework formation of polymer metal complexes owing to the fact that they can satisfy and even mediate the coordination needs of the metal center and consequently generate more meaningful architectures. The oligomer metal complex based on bisamic acid of pyromellitic dianhydride has not attracted any attention.




Principle

Melting point is a characteristic property of solid crystalline substance. It is the temperature at which the solid phase changes to the liquid phase. This phenomenon occurs when the substance is heated.
In all major pharmacopoeias the open capillary method is described to determine the melting point (slip point) for fats, fatty acids, paraffin, and waxes. In a glass capillary tube open at both ends (1), 10 mm of sample is introduced (2), chilled to a given temperature and immersed into a water bath (3/4). The melting point with open capillary, also known as slip point or slip melting point, is the temperature at which the substance begins to rise in the capillary due to the effect of the increasing temperature and buoyancy.

Applications

Chemical industry; Cosmetic/pharmaceutical industry

Procedure

1. Prepare the substance.
2. Affix one of the capillaries to a thermometer.
3. Place the thermometer with an affixed capillary into a glass.
4. Increase the temperature.
