The heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of some derivatives of ferrocene

The heat capacities of benzoylferrocene (BOF), C₅H₅FeC₅H₄COC₆H₅, and benzylferrocene (BF), C₅H₅FeC₅H₄CH₂C₆H₅, have been measured by the low-temperature adiabatic calorimetry in the temperature range from 6 K to 372 K. The purity benzylferrocene and thermodynamic properties – the triple point temperature and the enthalpy of fusion have been obtained. The ideal gas thermodynamic functions (changes of the entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy) of BOF and BF were derived at T = 298.15 K using the heat capacities and previously determined data on the saturation vapours pressures and the enthalpies of sublimation. The ideal gas enthalpy of formation and absolute entropy of BOF at T = 298.15 K have been obtained from quantum chemical calculations, where as the thermodynamic properties of BF have been estimated by empirical method of group equations. A good agreement between experimental and theoretical values provides an additional check of the reliability of the experimental data.

Heat capacity and thermodynamic functions of ferrocenemethanol

The heat capacity (C _{p, m}) of ferrocenemethanol (FM) C₅H₅FeC₅H₄CH₂OH have been measured by the low-temperature adiabatic calorimetry method in the range 6–371 K. The triple point temperature, the enthalpy of fusion, and the purity of the substance under consideration have been determined. The ideal gas thermodynamic functions of FM—absolute entropy S _m(g) ⁰ and change in the enthalpy Δ ₀ ^T H _m at 298.15 K—have been derived from the heat capacity data and the known values of the saturation vapor pressure and enthalpy of sublimation. The ideal gas thermodynamic functions C _{p, m} ⁰ and S _m(g) ⁰ and the enthalpy of formation of FM have been calculated by the empirical difference method at T = 298.15 K. The experimental and calculated values of the thermodynamic functions are consistent within error limits, which proves their reliability.     

Thermodynamic interactions in rubbery polymer/gas systems

The Flory–Huggins interaction parameters χ for 23 gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, H₂, N₂, O₂, N₂O, CO₂, CH₄, C₂H₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₆, C₃H₈, 1,3-C₄H₆, four C₄H₈'s, n-C₄H₁₀, iso-C₄H₁₀, and n-C₅H₁₂) in five rubbery polymers (1,2-polybutadiene (PB), poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate)) (EVAc), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) were determined from either literature data on Henry's law coefficient and partial molar volume or those on sorptive dilation for each polymer/gas system. Values of χ for the gases increased in the order of PDMS < PP ≡ PB < EVAc ≡ PE. Among the gases except He and H₂ whose χ values are not reliable, Ne and Xe have respectively the highest and the lowest values of χ for the polyolefins. The χ values of the hydrocarbons were compared together with previously reported χ values of n-alkanes C₃-C₁₀. The dependencies of χ upon concentration and temperature were discussed on the basis of the literature data. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 35 : 1049–1053, 1997

The reaction of ferrocenylacetylide compounds with Co₂(CO)₈ at room temperature affords four complexes bearing ferrocenyl units with approximately tetrahedral (μ-alkyne)dicobalt moieties [R–(C≡C) _n –R′] [Co₂(CO)₆] _{n ′} [R?=?C₅H₅FeC₅H₄-C(CH₃)₂-C₅H₄FeC₅H₄, R′?=?H, n?=?1, n′?=?1 (1); R?=?C₅H₅FeC₅H₄ [ferrocenyl (Fc)], R′?=?–CH=CHCl, n?=?1, n′?=?1 (2); R?=?Fc, R′?=?Fc, n?=?2, n′?=?1 (3), n′?=?2 (4)]. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H(¹³C) NMR, MS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The X-ray analyses show that coordination of the carbon–carbon triple bond and the dicobalt unit result in the formation of a Co₂C₂ tetrahedral core, and the substituents on the acetylenic units show a distortion from linearity that reflects this coordination mode.     

Thermodynamic investigation of several natural polyols

The low-temperature heat capacity C _p,m of erythritol (C₄H₁₀O₄, CAS 149-32-6) was precisely measured in the temperature range from 80 to 410 K by means of a small sample automated adiabatic calorimeter. A solid-liquid phase transition was found at T=390.254 K from the experimental C _p-T curve. The molar enthalpy and entropy of this transition were determined to be 37.92±0.19 kJ mol⁻¹ and 97.17±0.49 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹, respectively. The thermodynamic functions [H _T-H _298.15] and [S _T-S _298.15], were derived from the heat capacity data in the temperature range of 80 to 410 K with an interval of 5 K. The standard molar enthalpy of combustion and the standard molar enthalpy of formation of the compound have been determined: Δ_c H _m⁰(C₄H₁₀O₄, cr)= −2102.90±1.56 kJ mol⁻¹ and Δ_f H _m⁰(C₄H₁₀O₄, cr)= − 900.29±0.84 kJ mol⁻¹, by means of a precision oxygen-bomb combustion calorimeter at T=298.15 K. DSC and TG measurements were performed to study the thermostability of the compound. The results were in agreement with those obtained from heat capacity measurements.     

Quenching of *UF6 (A state) by alkanes

The removal of *UF₆ (A state) molecules by selected alkanes has been investigated at 25°C. The following rate constants (units of 10¹¹ l/mol·sec) were evaluated: iso-C₄F₁₀, 0.0432 ± 0.0115; n-C₄F₁₀, 0.0764 ± 0.020; C₂F₆, 0.0192 ± 0.0052; CH₄, 0.0612 ± 0.0061; C₂H₆, 3.78 ± 0.60; C₃H₈, 5.08 ± 0.60; n-C₄H₁₀, 5.05 ± 0.78; iso-C₄H₁₀, 4.17 ± 1.15; neo-C₅H₁₂, 6.59 ± 0.93; CF₃? CH₃, 0.0385 ± 0.0056; CF₂H? CF₂H, 0.0729 ± 0.0074; and CF₂H? CFH₂, 0.149 ± 0.015. The perfluoro-alkane quenching of *UF₆ proceeds via a physical mechanism. The other alkane quenching reactions are consistent with a chemical mechanism also contributing in varying degrees which may involve removal of two hydrogens from the alkane.     

Thermodynamic insights into n-alkanes phase change materials for thermal energy storage

n-Alkanes have been widely used as phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy storage applications because of their exceptional phase transition performance, high chemical stability, long term cyclic stability and non-toxicity. However, the thermodynamic properties, especially heat capacity, of n-alkanes have rarely been comprehensively investigated in a wide temperature range, which would be insufficient for design and utilization of n-alkanes-based thermal energy storage techniques. In this study, the thermal properties of n-alkanes (C₁₈H₃₈-C₂₂H₄₆), such as thermal stability, thermal conductivity, phase transition temperature and enthalpy were systematically studied by different thermal analysis and calorimetry methods, and compared with previous results. Thermodynamic property of these n-alkanes was studied in a wide temperature range from 1.9 K to 370 K using a combined relaxation (Physical Property Measurement System, PPMS), differential scanning and adiabatic calorimetry method, and the corresponding thermodynamic functions, such as entropy and enthalpy, were calculated based on the heat capacity curve fitting. Most importantly, the heat capacities and related thermodynamic functions of n-heneicosane and n-docosane were reported for the first time in this work, as far as we know. This research work would provide accurate and reliable thermodynamic properties for further study of n-alkanes-based PCMs for thermal energy storage applications.

A series of arylantimony ferrocenecarboxylates with the formula (C₅H₅FeC₅H₄CO₂)_nSbAr_(5?n) (n = 1, 2; Ar = C₆H₅, 4‐CH₃C₆H₄, 3‐CH₃C₆H₄, 2‐CH₃C₆H₄, 4‐ClC₆H₄, 4‐FC₆H₄) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR and mass spectra. The crystal structures of (C₅H₅FeC₅H₄CO₂)₂Sb(4‐CH₃C₆H₄)₃ and C₅H₅FeC₅H₄CO₂SbPh₄ were determined by X‐ray diffraction. Four human neoplastic cell lines (HL‐60, Bel‐7402, KB and Hela) were used to screen these compounds. The results indicate that these compounds at 10 µM show certain in vitro antitumor activities.

Molecule/radical reactions prior to ionization under negative chemical ionization conditions

It is shown that alkyl radical species present in CH₄ or iso-C₄H₁₀ plasma can react with substrate molecules to give [M+C_nH_2n] species. These species become evident especially in negative chemical ionization as [M+C_nH_2n]^?˙ and, less obviously, in positive chemical ionization as [M+C_nH_2n+1]⁺ ions which, for example in natural products chemistry, may be mistaken for a series of homologous compounds present in the sample.

Variation in enthalpy of the systemn-tetracosane-n-hexacosane as functions of temperature and composition

Differential enthalpy analyses were performed on the binaryn-alkane systemn-C₂₄H₅₀-n-C₂₆H₅₄ with a Setaram DSC111 calorimeter of Tian Calvet type. The measurements provided enthalpy data from 260 to 260 K onn-tetracosane,n-hexacosane and 19 binary mixtures. An analytical expression, derived from the Einstein model, is proposed for every pure phase in its temperature domain, to represent the variation in the enthalpy with temperature. A general expression for the enthalpy as a function of temperature and composition is also given.     

Transition-metal mediated heteroatom removal by reactions of FeL+ [L=O,C4H6, c-C5H6, c-C5H5, C6H6, C5H4(=CH2)] with furan,thiophene, and pyrrole in the gas phase

Reactions of Fe⁺ and FeL⁺ [L=O, C₄H₆, c-C₅H₆, C₅H₅, C₆H₆, C₅H₄(=CH₂)] with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole in the gas phase by using Fourier transform mass spectrometry are described. Fe⁺, Fe(C₅H₅)⁺, and FeC₆H ₆ ⁺ yield exclusive rapid adduct formation with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole. In addition, the iron-diene complexes [FeC₄H ₆ ⁺ and Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺], as well as FeC₅H₄(=CH₂)⁺ and FeO⁺, are quite reactive. The most intriguing reaction is the predominant direct extrusion of CO from furan by FeC₄H₆ ⁺, Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺, and FeC₅H₄(=CH₂)⁺. In addition, FeC₄H ₆ ⁺ and Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺ cause minor amounts of HCN extrusion from pyrrole. Mechanisms are presented for these CO and HCN extrusion reactions. The absence of CS elimination from thiophene may be due to the higher energy requirements than those for CO extrusion from furan or HCN extrusion from pyrrole. The dominant reaction channel for reaction of Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺ with pyrrole and thiophene is hydrogen-atom displacement, which implies D^O(Fa(N₅H₅)⁺-C₄H₄X)>D^O(Fe(C₅H₅)⁺-H)=46±5 kcal mol^?1. D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄S) and D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₅N)=D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₆)=48±5 kcal mol^?1. Finally, 55±5 kcal mol^?1=D^O(Fe⁺-C₆H₆)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄O)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₂H₄)=39.9±1.4 kcal mol^?1. FeO⁺ reacts rapidly with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole to yield initial loss of CO followed by additional neutral losses. D^O(Fe⁺-CS)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄S)≈48±5 kcal mol^?1 and D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₅N)≈48±5 kcal mol^?1>D^O(Fe⁺-HCN)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₂H₄)=39.9±1.4 kcal mil^?1.

In the present research, the temperature dependence of heat capacity of tris(pentafluorophenyl)-4-pyridylethylgermane (C₆F₅)₃Ge–CH₂–CH₂–C₅H₄N was studied by precise adiabatic vacuum calorimetry and differential scanning calorimetry over the temperature range from 6 to 450 K. The temperature and enthalpy of fusion of tris(pentafluorophenyl)-4-pyridylethylgermane and the total mole fraction of impurities have been determined. The thermal stability of the sample was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis. The experimental data were used to calculate the standard thermodynamic functions: heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, and the Gibbs energy over the range from T → 0 to 420 K for crystalline and liquid states. For the compound under study, the standard entropy of formation in the crystalline state was calculated at T = 298.15 K. In addition, the structure of the investigated compound was established, and corresponding structural parameters were determined.

     

Influence of pyridine oximate and quaternized pyridinium oximate ions on the hydrolysis of phosphate esters in cationic microemulsions

Kinetic studies have been performed to understand the hydrolytic potencies of oximate (2- and 4-pyridinealdoxime) and its functionalized oximate (4-(hydroxyiminomethyl)-1-alkylpyridinium bromide) ions (alkyl?=?C₁₀H₂₁ (4-C₁₀PyOx^-); alkyl?=?C₁₂H₂₅ (4-C₁₂PyOx^-)) in the cleavage of phosphate esters, diethyl p-nitrophenylphosphate (Paraoxon) and p-nitrophenyl diphenyl phosphate (PNPDPP) in a cationic (O/W) microemulsion system (ME) over a pH range 7.5 to 11.0 at 300?K. The k_obs values for the reaction of paraoxon with oximate and its functionalized oximate were determined in different microemulsion composition and the kinetic rate data shows that k_obs values increases with increasing water content. The specificity of different chain length of alcohols (n-butanol, n-pentanol, n-hexanol and n-octanol) was also investigated in hydrolytic reactions of paraoxon for different microemulsion composition.
