Abstract: A novel transition metal chelate Cd(SCZ)2Cl2 (SCZ = semicarbazide) was synthesized from a known 1D metal-organic framework (MOF) Cd(SCZ)Cl2 and fully characterized by elemental analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. Then the 1D MOF Cd(SCZ)Cl2 was regained by adding CdCl2 to the chelate Cd(SCZ)2Cl2. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that Cd(SCZ)2Cl2 crystallizes in orthorhombic Pbcn space group. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was applied to assess the thermal decomposition behavior of Cd(SCZ)2Cl2. The non-isothermal kinetics parameters of Cd(SCZ)2Cl2 were calculated by the methods of Kissinger and Ozawa-Doyle, respectively.
