Synthesis,characterization,and thermostability of bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)copper(Ⅱ)

Owing to the adaptability to large scale processing,excellent composition control and film uniformity,the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition（MOCVD） technique is a promising process for high-temperature superconductor YBa;Cu;O;（YBCO） preparation.In this technique,the evaporation characteristics and thermostability of adopted precursors in whole process will decide the quality and reproducible results of YBCO film.In the present report,bis（2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato）copper（II）(Cu（TMHD）;) was synthesized by the interaction of copper acetate hydrate with TMHD in methanol solution,and its structure was identified by FTIR,1 H NMR,and EI-MS spectroscopy.Subsequently,thermal property and the kinetics of decomposition were systematically investigated by nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis methods（TGA） at different heating rates in streams of N;,and the average apparent activation energy of evaporation process was evaluated by the Ozawa,Kissinger,and Friedman methods.The possible conversion function was estimated through the Coats-Redfern method to characterize the evaporation patterns and followed a phase boundary reaction mechanism by the contracting area equation with average activation energy of 85.1 kJ·mol;.
