The standard enthalpy of combustion of cyclohexylamine has been measured in an aneroid rotating-bomb calorimeter. The value ΔH_o^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, 1) = ?(4071.3 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1 yields the standard enthalpy of formation ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, 1) = ?(147.7 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1. The corresponding gas-phase standard enthalpy of formation for cyclohexylamine is ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, g) = ?(104.9 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1. The standard enthalpy of formation of cyclohexylamine hydrochloride, ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂·HCl, c) = ?(408.2 ± 1.5) kJ mol^?1, was derived by combining the measured enthalpy of solution of the salt in water, literature data, and the ΔH_c^o measured in this study.

Determination of enthalpies of formation of organic free radicals from bond dissociation energies 1. Hydrocarbon radicals

The enthalpies of formation (ΔH _f ^o) for 24 hydrocarbon radicals (R^?), mainly polycyclic aromatic radicals with the complex structure, were determined from the published data on bond dissociation energies. The ΔH _f ^o values of the corresponding molecules were calculated, in the majority of cases, by the macroincrement method. Calculations by the group contribution method were performed. Some ΔH _f ^o(R^?) values were compared to those calculated by the additive-group method. Calculations were performed, and the conjugation energies of the radicals were discussed. The errors of determination of the ΔH _f ^o(R^?) values found were estimated. Due to this work, the database for ΔH _f ^o values of hydrocarbon radicals was increased more than by 25%.     

The enthalpies of solution and solvation of glycine in mixed water-formamide solvents at 298.15 K

The enthalpies of solution (ΔH _sol ^o ) of glycine in aqueous formamide, N-methylformamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, and N,N-diethylformamide were determined by calorimetry at 298.15 K over the concentration range x ₂=0–0.3 mole fractions.

Novel anilino-pyrimidine fungicides, pyrimethanil maleic salt, and pyrimethanil fumaric salt (C₂₈H₃₀N₆O₄) were synthesized by a chemical reaction of pyrimethanil with maleic acid/fumaric acid. The low-temperature heat capacities of the two compounds were measured with an adiabatic calorimeter from 80 to 350 K. The heat capacities of pyrimethanil fumaric salt are bigger than that of pyrimethanil maleic salt in the measurement temperature range. The thermodynamic function data relative to 298.15 K were calculated based on the heat capacity-fitted curves. The melting points, the molar enthalpies (Δ_fus H _m), and entropies (Δ_fus S _m) of fusion of pyrimethanil maleic salt and pyrimethanil fumaric salt were determined from their DSC curves. The values indicate that pyrimethanil fumaric salt was more thermostable than pyrimethanil maleic salt. The constant-volume energies of combustion (Δ_c U _m ^o ) of pyrimethanil maleic salt and pyrimethanil fumaric salt were measured using an isoperibol oxygen bomb combustion calorimeter at T = (298.15 ± 0.001) K. From the Hess thermochemical cycle, the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the two compounds were derived and determined to be Δ_f H _m ^o (pyrimethanil maleic salt) = ?459.3 ± 4.9 kJ mol^?1 and Δ_f H _m ^o (pyrimethanil fumaric salt) = ?557.2 ± 4.8 kJ mol^?1, respectively. The results suggest that pyrimethanil fumaric salt is more chemically stable than pyrimethanil maleic salt.

The integral enthalpies of solution (298.15 K) of DL-α-alanine in water-organic solvent mixtures were measured at organic component concentrations x ₂ = 0–0.4 mole fractions. The organic solvents used were acetonitrile (ACN), formamide (FA), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMFA), and N,N-dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The standard enthalpies of solution Δ_sol H ^o, solvation Δ_solv H ^o, and transfer (Δ_tr H ^o) of DL-α-alanine from water to mixed solvents were calculated.

The Δ_sol H ^o, Δ_tr H ^o, and Δ_solv H ^o values as functions of x ₂ can pass extrema (DMSO and DMFA), be almost independent of mixed solvent composition (FA), or be exothermic and monotonic functions (ACN). The enthalpy coefficients of pair interactions (h _xy ) between DL-α-alanine and organic solvent molecules were calculated. The linear Kamlet-Taft equation was used to correlate the h _xy values with the properties of organic solvents.
