Abstract
The thermal decomposition reactions of manganese(II) complexes with L-proline and 4-hydroxy- L-proline were studied. The Mn(II) proline complex loses the water molecule at 40–95°C and then, heated above 250°C it decomposes in several steps to manganese oxide. The most appropriate kinetic equations for dehydration process are the geometrical R2 or R3 ones. They give a value of activation energy, E of about 95 kJmol–1. The Mn(II) hydroxyproline complex loses the water molecules in two stages (70–110 and 110–230°C) and next it decomposes to manganese oxide in several steps. The R3 or D3 (three-dimensional diffusion) models are the most appropriate for the first stage of dehydration (E is about 155 kJ mol–1). The second step of dehydration is limited by D3 mechanism (E=52 kJ mol–1).
