Characterization and studies of some triethanolamine complexes of transition and representative metals

Low‐Temperature Hydrothermal Synthesis of Pure BiFeO3 Nanopowders Using Triethanolamine and Their Applications as Visible‐Light Photocatalysts

“…As a result of the continuous reaction with TEA, most of the Fe ions remain in the solution without precipitating, even after a 24-h reaction. These results are in good accordance with reports about the formation of chelating complexes between amines and Fe ions, 16,17 and further experiments regarding the effects of other amine systems are currently ongoing. A relatively large number of Fe ions remain in the solution during the hydrothermal process due to the formation of Fe-TEA complexes, and this may reduce the energy required to achieve the BFO phase when using a low temperature for the hydrothermal process.…”

Synthesis, characterisation, and performance evaluation of tri-armed phenolic antioxidants

“…[22][23] Ottaviani and co-workers [24] reported a series of PAMAM dendrimers with a triethanolamine core which revealed interesting copper (II) binding characteristics. The transition metal binding ability of the triethanolamine core has been known for a number of years [25][26][27] and could be particularly relevant in the design of oxidation inhibitors as traces of transition metal ions play a significant role in the catalysis of the oxidation processes. [28] It is feasible that the oxidative stability of a material could be enhanced by introducing an antioxidant with both radical scavenging and metal chelation properties.…”

Highly soluble Fe(III)-triethanolamine complex relevant for redox flow batteries

“…Whereas its structure in solution is not known, the crystal structure of the complex corresponding to a protocol involving 2 eq. of TEA per Fe atom at solid state has been reported to be a mononuclear complex with an iron atom coordinated by two TEA ligands in a regular octahedral configuration [16,17].…”
