Thermodynamic and kinetic behaviour of salicylsalicylic acid

The thermal behaviour of salicylsalicylic acid (CAS number 552-94-3) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The endothermic melting peak and the fingerprint of the glass transition were characterised at a heating rate of 10°C min^-1. The melting peak showed an onset at T _on = 144°C (417 K) and a maximum intensity at T _max = 152°C (425 K), while the onset of the glass transition signal was at T _on = 6°C. The melting enthalpy was found to be Δ_mH = 28.9±0.3 kJ mol^-1, and the heat capacity jump at the glass transition was ΔC _P = 108.1±0.1 J K^-1mol^-1. The study of the influence of the heating rate on the temperature location of the glass transition signal by DSC, allowed the determination of the activation energy at the glass transition temperature (245 kJ mol^-1), and the calculation of the fragility index of salicyl salicylate (m = 45). Finally, the standard molar enthalpy of formation of crystalline monoclinic salicylsalicylic acid at T = 298.15 K, was determined as Δ_fH_m ^o(C₁₄H₁₀O₅, cr) = - (837.6±3.3) kJ mol^-1, by combustion calorimetry.

Thermodynamic properties of the molecular complexes of C<Subscript>60</Subscript>with monosubstituted naphthalenes

Summary The binary systems of C₆₀with α-methyl- and α-chloronaphthalene have been studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry. C₆₀was found to form the molecular complex of the van der Waals type with α-methylnaphthalene which melts incongruently below the boiling point of the solvent at temperature 382.7±3.0 K. The enthalpy of the desolvation reaction is 14.1±0.5 kJ mol^-1of C₆₀. The molar ratio of fullerene to solvent in the solvate is 1:1.5. In the system C₆₀-α-chloronaphthalene a two-stage incongruent melting process has been observed at temperatures 314.1±4.6 K and 375.7±7.4 K with the enthalpies 8.1±2.6 kJ mol^-1and 11.6±1.0 kJ mol^-1, respectively. The composition of the most solvated phase equilibrated with the saturated solution at room temperature and below the first of the incongruent melting transitions was determined as 1:1.5. Based on the results obtained the thermodynamic characteristics of the incongruent melting reactions have been revealed and influence of solvate formation on solubility of C₆₀has been discussed.

The structure and thermochemistry of 3:4,5:6-dibenzo-2-hydroxymethylene-cyclohepta-3,5-dienenone (1) and some related compounds

Condensed and gas phase enthalpies of formation of 3:4,5:6-dibenzo-2-hydroxymethylene-cyclohepta-3,5-dienenone (1, (−199.1 ± 16.4), (−70.5 ± 20.5) kJ mol⁻¹, respectively) and 3,4,6,7-dibenzobicyclo[3.2.1]nona-3,6-dien-2-one (2, (−79.7 ± 22.9), (20.1 ± 23.1) kJ mol⁻¹) are reported.

Measurement of high temperature heat content of silicon by drop calorimetry

Heat content of silicon has been measured in a temperature range of 700-1820 K using a drop calorimeter. Boron nitride was used as a sample crucible. The enthalpy of fusion and the melting point of silicon determined from the heat content-temperature plots are 48.31±0.18 kJ mol^-1 and 1687±5 K, respectively. The heat content and heat capacity equations were derived using the Shomate function for the solid region and the least square method for the liquid region, respectively, and compared with the literature values.

Determination of the Enthalpies of Formation of DyI2 and DyI3 and estimation of the Dy3+/Dy2+ standard aqueous electrode potential

DyI₂ and Dy_3I were synthesized by literature techniques. Their enthalpies of solution were determined and their enthalpies of formation calculated to be Δ_fH°(DyI₂, s, 298 K) = ?(394 ± 16) kJ· mol^?1 and Δ_fH°(DyI₃, s, 298 K) = ?(616 ± 10) kJ· mol^?1. With appropriate literature and estimated enthalpies of solution and standard entropies, the E°(Dy³⁺/Dy²⁺, aq) was calculated to be ?(2.6 ± 0.2) V. A comparison is made of the enthalpies of reduction of DyI₃ to DyI₂ and of DyCl₃ to DyCl₂.     

Dimethylformamide-Exchange Mechanism on Some First-Row Divalent Transition-Metal Ions

The effect of temperature on the dimethylformamide exchange on Mn(DMF) and Fe(DMF) has been studied by ¹³C- and ¹⁷O-NMR, respectively, yielding the following kinetic parameters: k²⁹⁸ equals; (2.2±0.2). 10⁶ S^?1, ΔH^≠ = 34.6 ± 1.3 kJ mol^?1, ΔS^≠ = ?7.4 ± 4.8 J K^?1mol^?1 for Mn²⁺ and K²⁹⁸ = (9.7 ± 0.2).10⁵ S^?1, Delta;H^≠ = 43.0 ± 0.9 kJ mol^?1, ΔS^≠ = + 13.8 ± 2.8 J K^?1mol^?1 for Fe²⁺. The volumes of activation, ΔV^≠ in cm³mol^?1, derived from high-pressure NMR on these metal ions, together with the previously published activation volumes for Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺ (+2.4 ± 0.2 (Mn²⁺), +8.5 ± 0.4 (Fe²⁺) +9.2 ± 0.3 (Co²⁺), + 9.1 ± 0.3 (Ni²⁺)) give evidence for a dissociative activation mode for DMF exchange on these high-spin first-row transition-metal divalent ions. The small positive ΔV^≠ value observed for DMF exchange on Mn²⁺ seems to indicate that a mechanistic changeover also occurs along the series, (probably from I_d to D), as for the other solvents previously studied (I_a to I_d, for H₂O, MeOH, MeCN). This changeover is shifted to the earlier elements of the series, due to more pronounced steric crowding for dimethylformamide hexasolvates.     

Standard enthalpy of formation of platinum hydrous oxide

Standard enthalpies of formation of amorphous platinum hydrous oxide PtH_2.76O_3.89 (Adams' catalyst) and dehydrated oxide PtO_2.52 at T=298.15 K were determined to be -519.6±1.0 and -101.3 ±5.2 kJ mol^-1, respectively, by micro-combustion calorimetry. Standard enthalpy of formation of anhydrous PtO₂ was estimated to be -80 kJ mol^-1 based on the calorimetry. A meaningful linear relationship was found between the pseudo-atomization enthalpies of platinum oxides and the coordination number of oxygen surrounding platinum. This relationship indicates that the Pt-O bond dissociation energy is 246 kJ mol^-1 at T=298.15 K which is surprisingly independent of both the coordination number and the valence of platinum atom. This may provide an energetic reason why platinum hydrous oxide is non-stoichiometric. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

n-alkylmonoamine into crystalline lamellar titanium phenylphosphonate

Crystalline lamellar titanium phenylphosphonate was intercalated with n-alkylmonoamines, H₃C(CH₂)_n-NH₂ (n=0 to 3), which decomposed on heating in four distinct stages. The lamellar compound was calorimetrically titrated with ethanolic amine solution at 298.15±0.02 K and the enthalpy, Gibbs free energy and entropy were calculated. with the exception of butylamine, the enthalpic values increased with the number of carbon atoms in the amine chain, as -16.20±0.22; -18.70±0.19; -23.70±0.24 and -18.30±0.22 kj mol^-1, from n=0 to 3. The exothermic enthalpic values reflected a favorable energetic process of intercalation, when the solvated ethanol molecules on inorganic matrix are progressively substituted by solute. The negative gibbs free energy results supported the spontaneity of the reactions and the positive favorable entropic values are in agreement with the increase of solvent molecules in the reaction medium, as the amine becomes bonded to the crystalline lamellar inorganic matrix.

Molar heat capacities and standard molar enthalpy of formation of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine

The heat capacities (C _p,m) of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine (AMP) were measured by a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range from 80 to 398 K. A solid-liquid phase transition was found in the range from 336 to 351 K with the peak heat capacity at 350.426 K. The melting temperature (T _m), the molar enthalpy (Δ_fus H _m⁰), and the molar entropy (Δ_fus S _m⁰) of fusion were determined to be 350.431±0.018 K, 18.108 kJ mol⁻¹ and 51.676 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹, respectively. The mole fraction purity of the sample used was determined to be 0.99734 through the Van’t Hoff equation. The thermodynamic functions (H _T-H _298.15 and S _T-S _298.15) were calculated. The molar energy of combustion and the standard molar enthalpy of combustion were determined, ΔU _c(C₆H₈N₂,cr)= −3500.15±1.51 kJ mol⁻¹ and Δ_c H _m⁰ (C₆H₈N₂,cr)= −3502.64±1.51 kJ mol⁻¹, by means of a precision oxygen-bomb combustion calorimeter at T=298.15 K. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of the crystalline compound was derived, Δ_r H _m⁰ (C₆H₈N₂,cr)= −1.74±0.57 kJ mol⁻¹.

Inclusion Complex Formation of Thiacalix[4]arene and Xe in Aqueous Solution Studied by Hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR

The inclusion complex formation of 4-sulfothiacalix[4]arene sodium salt (STCAS) and Xe has been investigated by using hyperpolarized ¹²⁹Xe NMR spectroscopy. Our new continuous-flow type hyperpolarizing system has advantageous capabilities that can supply hyperpolarized gases continuously and directly to a sample solution in a NMR tube. Consequently saturated Xe concentration in the aqueous solution of STCAS is maintained during the NMR experiment, and ¹²⁹Xe NMR spectra can be obtained in remarkably short time. STCAS concentration dependence of ¹²⁹Xe chemical shift has been analyzed in an elaborated way by a computer method as well as a simple graphic method that we have proposed. The association constant K:13.6±0.8 M⁻¹ at 25 °C was obtained, and further analysis of the temperature dependence has successfully given thermodynamic parameters of enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) for the inclusion complex formation: ΔH = −11.9±1.9 kJ mol⁻¹ and ΔS = −17.4±5.8 JK⁻¹ mol⁻¹. The energetic aspects of complex formation are discussed from the size effect and from the molecular theory of standard entropy, and a release of definite number of water molecules from STCAS cavity is suggested in the inclusion complex formation with Xe.     

Investigation of accidental explosion of raw garbage composting system

Cellulose, chitosan and piroxicam were investigated by TG and DSC at heating up to 215°C, and by X-ray powder diffraction before and after the heating. Dehydration of cellulose and chitosan comes to the end near 160°C. Thermal decomposition of chitosan starts at the final stage of its dehydration, and the mass losses after these two reactions overlap with one another. Enthalpy of dehydration is 47.1±2.4 kJ mol^–1 of water for cellulose and 46.2±2.0 kJ mol^–1 for chitosan. Thermal decomposition of chitosan is an exothermic process. Crystal structure of cellulose after heating remains unchanged, but that of chitosan contracts. Piroxicam melts at 200.7°C with the enthalpy of melting 35 kJ mol^–1. Heat capacity of the liquid phase is greater than that of the solid phase by approximately 100 J mol^–1K^–1. Cooled back to ambient temperature, piroxicam remains glassy for a long time, crystallizing slowly back into the starting polymorph.     

Physicochemical Properties of Plant Protection Substances: I Polymorphism and Binary Systems of Triadimenol

 The fungicide triadimenol consists of a mixture of two diastereoisomers. Diastereoisomer A (1RS,2SR) could be obtained from the mixture by fractionated crystallization from ethanol/water and toluene, successively, whereas diastereoisomer B (1RS,2RS) could be separated by column chromatography on a silica gel column using ethylacetate as eluent. Four different crystal forms of diastereoisomer A could be derived. The modifications were characterized by means of thermal analysis (thermomicroscopy, DSC), FTIR-spectroscopy, FT-Raman-spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction, as well as pycnometry. The thermodynamic relationships are illustrated in a semischematic energy/temperature-diagram which provides information about the relative thermodynamic stabilities and physical properties of the four crystal forms. Mod. II (m.p. 132 °C, ΔH_f 33.1±0.2 kJ mol⁻¹, density 1.271±0.001 g cm⁻³) was obtained from toluene after the separation of diastereoisomer A and is enantiotropically related to mod. I (m.p. 138 °C, ΔH_f 32.0 ± 0.2 kJ mol⁻¹, density 1.243±0.001 g cm⁻³). The transition point of mod. II with mod. I was determined between 30 and 40 °C, which means that mod. II is thermodynamically stable at ambient conditions. Mod. III (m.p. 112 °C, ΔH_f 25.1±0.5 kJ mol⁻¹) and mod. IV were obtained from the melt. Furthermore, the phase diagrams of the binary systems of diastereoisomer B and the four modifications of diastereoisomer A were calculated by means of the experimentally obtained thermodynamical data.

Multidynamic Crystalline Molecular Rotors Comprising an N-Heterocyclic Carbene Binuclear Au(I) Complex Bearing Multiple Rotators

We report multidynamic molecular rotations in crystals using a concave-shape N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) binuclear Au(I) complex rotor bearing pyrazine and tetrahydrofuran (THF) molecules as multicomponent rotators. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed that two THF molecules are located near the central pyrazine encapsulated by two bulky NHC ligands. From ²H solid-state NMR analysis, it was observed that the pyrazine rotated in a 2-fold site exchange with a 180° rotational angle and a 31 kJ mol⁻¹ energy barrier, while the THF molecules showed a 23°-38° libration with a lower energy barrier (14 kJ mol⁻¹). Interestingly, the pyrazine rotation was accelerated when the THF molecules rotated in fast site exchange with a large angle of libration, suggesting that the rotators exhibit multidynamics in a correlated manner.     

Volumes of Activation for Dimethylsulfoxide and N,N-Dimethylformamide Exchange with Hexasolvates of Aluminium (III) and Gallium (III) Ions in Deuterionitromethane Solution

High-pressure ¹H-NMR. has been used to determine volumes of activation (ΔV#) for solvent exchange with [M(S)₆]³⁺ ion (M = Al(III), Ga(III); S = dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)) in [²H]₃-nitromethane solution. For Al(III),Δ V# = + 15.6 ± 1.4 (S = DMSO, 358.5 K) and ΔV# = + 13.7 ± 1.2 cm³mol^?1 (S = DMF, 354.5 K), whilst for Ga(III), ΔV# = + 13.1 ± 1.0 (S = DMSO, 334.6 K) and ΔV# = +7.9 ± 1.6 cm³mol^?1 (S= DMF, 313.8 K). Variable temperature studies over a temperature range of 107.2 K (Al(III)) and 101.1 K (Ga(III)) were carried out for solvent exchange with [M(DMF)₆]³⁺ ions in [²H]₃-nitromethane solution, using stopped-flow NMR, and conventional linebroadening, and gave ΔH# = 88.3 ± 0.9 and 85.1 ± 0.6 kJ+ mol^?1, and ΔS# = 28.4 ± 2.7 and 45.1 ± 1.9 JK^?1 mol^?1 for Al(III) and Ga(III) ions respectively. All of these results are consistent with dissociative modes of activation.
