Abstract :
Thermal decomposition of a compound consisting of a tetrachloroferrate(III) anion and a quinolinium cation, of general formula [QH][FeCl4], has been studied using TG–FTIR, TG–MS, DTA and DTG techniques. The measurements were carried out in an argon atmosphere over the temperature range 20–800 °C. The solid products of the thermal decomposition were identified by IR, FIR and Mössbauer spectroscopy.
