Desenvolvimento e caracterização de nanopós obtidos por complexação de lantanídeos com tio-hidantoína e 1,10’ fenantrolina.

Abstract

The search for technological innovations in recent years increasingly intensifies. In this context, two major groups, the lanthanides and hydantoins stand out with important contributions in many areas of research showing wide field of applications. In these terms, this research aims to synthesize and characterize complex of lanthanide ions: Eu+3, Ho+3, Er+3 and Nd+3 with 5-(4-methyl-phenyl)-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-imidazolidin-4-one (HPA) and a second linker, 1,10-fenatrolina (Phen), aiming to obtain complexes with biological properties. From the reaction between the chlorides of lanthanides with the respective organic ligands under reflux for approximately 8 hours and 60°C, were obtained complexes of europium, holmium, erbium and neodymium. The powder complexes were characterized using spectroscopic techniques, thermal and structural analyzes. The complexes of lanthanide ions showed elemental analysis results according to the proposed stoichiometry (1:3:1). The coordination of the ligands with lanthanide ions occurred through oxygen and sulfur atoms in the structure of 5 - (4-methylphenyl) -3-phenyl-2-thioxo-imidazolidin-4-one (HPA) and nitrogen atoms (C = N) of 1,10'- phenanthroline, which can be observed in the infrared spectra, through the displacement of these bands present in free and coordinated ligands. UV-Vis spectra showed discrete displacements and changes in the intensities of the absorption bands of the complex compared to the HPA binder. The TG/ DTG curves HPA binder 3 had decomposition steps, while the complexes showed 4 and 5 steps. The complex synthesized Er+3 showed higher thermal stability. The DSC curves of the complexes showed a series of endothermic and exothermic events corresponding to decomposition processes, dehydration, fusion and volatilization, corroborating the thermogravimetric curves. All lanthanide complexes obtained showed nanometric dimensions, and neodymium complex presented the most crystalline structure.
