The standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation of 2-, 3-, and 4-chloronitrobenzene isomers, in the crystalline state, at T = 298.15 K, were derived from the standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) massic energies of combustion, in oxygen, at T = 298.15 K, measured by rotating bomb combustion calorimetry. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation of the isomers, at T = 298.15 K, were obtained by high temperature Calvet microcalorimetry.

This paper reports the values of the standard (p^∘=0.1 MPa) molar enthalpy of formation in the condensed, at T=298.15 K, for 2-R-benzimidazoles (R=propyl, isopropyl), derived from, the respective enthalpies of combustion in oxygen, measured by static bomb combustion calorimetry and the standard molar enthalpies of sublimation, at T=298.15 K, obtained using Calvet microcalorimetry in the case of 2-isopropylbenzimidazole and, by the variation of vapour pressures, determined by the Knudsen effusion technique, with temperatures between (344 and 365) K for 2-propylbenzimidazole. Heat capacities, in the temperature ranges from T=268 K to near their respective melting temperatures, T=421 K for 2-propylbenzimidazole and T=464 K for 2-isopropylbenzimidazole, were measured with a differential scanning calorimeter. These values were used to derive the standard molar enthalpies of formation, of the two 2-benzimidazole derivatives, in gaseous phase.

Experimental and computational thermochemical study of 2-thiobarbituric acid: structure-energy relationship     

Roux MV  Notario R  Zaitsau DH  Emel'yanenko VN  Verevkin SP 《The journal of physical chemistry. A》2012,116(18):4639-4645

This paper reports an experimental and computational thermochemical study on 2-thiobarbituric acid (2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione), [CAS 504-17-6]. The value of the standard (p(0) = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpy of formation in the gas phase at T = 298.15 K has been determined. The energy of combustion was measured by bomb combustion calorimetry, using a rotatory bomb, and from the result obtained, the standard molar enthalpy of formation in the crystalline state at T = 298.15 K was calculated as -(396.8 ± 0.9) kJ·mol(-1). The enthalpy of sublimation was determined using a transference (transpiration) method in a saturated N(2) stream and a value of the enthalpy of sublimation at T = 298.15 K was derived as (118.3 ± 2.2) kJ·mol(-1). From these results a value of -(278.5 ± 2.4) kJ·mol(-1) for the gas-phase enthalpy of formation at T = 298.15 K was determined. Theoretical calculations at the G3 and G4 levels were performed, and a study of the molecular and electronic structure of the compound has been carried out. Calculated enthalpies of formation are in very good agreement with the experimental value.

Experimental and computational study of the thermochemistry of the fluoromethylaniline isomers     

Ribeiro da Silva MA  Ferreira AI  Gomes JR 《The journal of physical chemistry. B》2007,111(23):6444-6451

The standard (po = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation in the condensed phase of seven isomers of fluoromethylaniline were derived from the standard molar energies of combustion, in oxygen, to yield CO2(g), N2(g) and HF.10H2O(l), at T = 298.15 K, measured by rotating bomb combustion calorimetry. The standard molar enthalpies of vaporization or sublimation of these compounds, also at T = 298.15 K, were determined using Calvet microcalorimetry, while the enthalpies of fusion of the solid compounds were determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The standard molar enthalpies of formation in the gaseous phase, at T = 298.15 K, were derived from the former two experimental quantities. G3MP2//B3LYP calculations were performed for all possible fluoromethylanilines allowing the estimation of data for the isomers that were not studied experimentally. The Cox scheme was applied with two different approaches for the estimation of the standard molar enthalpies of formation of all the isomers studied, and this led to the conclusion that the literature values for the enthalpies of formation of the meta and para isomers of methylaniline seem to be not reliable. Further G3MP2//B3LYPs calculations on the methylaniline isomers yielded new values for the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the isomers of methylaniline, which have been tested under the Cox scheme, resulting in better estimates.

This paper reports a combined experimental and computational thermochemical study of 4-benzyloxyphenol. Static bomb combustion calorimetry and Knudsen mass-loss effusion technique were used to determine the standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpy of combustion, , and of sublimation, , respectively, from which the standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpy of formation, in the gaseous phase, at T = 298.15 K, were derived.For comparison purposes, the gas-phase enthalpy of formation of this compound was estimated by G3(MP2)//B3LYP calculations, using a set of gas-phase working reactions; the results are in excellent agreement with experimental data. G3(MP2)//B3LYP computations were also extended to the calculation of the gas-phase enthalpies of formation of the 2- and 3-benzyloxyphenol isomers. Furthermore, this composite approach was also used to obtain information about the gas-phase acidities, gas-phase basicities, proton and electron affinities, adiabatic ionization enthalpies and, finally, O–H bond dissociation enthalpies.

Thiophene-based compounds have widespread use in modern drug design, biodiagnostics, electronic and optoelectronic devices, and conductive polymers. The present study reports an experimental and computational thermochemical study on the relative stabilities of 2- and 3-thiopheneacetic acid methyl esters. The enthalpies of combustion and vaporization were measured by a rotating-bomb combustion calorimeter, Calvet microcalorimetry, and correlation gas chromatography, and the gas-phase enthalpies of formation at T=298.15 K were determined. Standard ab initio molecular orbital calculations at the G3 level were performed, and a theoretical study of the molecular and electronic structure of the compounds studied was carried out. Calculated enthalpies of formation, using atomization and isodesmic reactions are in very good agreement with the experimental results.

Theoretical study of two C50H40 isomers with three dodecahedrane cages sharing two pentagons     

Feng‐Ling Liu  Ling Peng  Jian‐Xia Zhao  Shou‐Qing Wang 《International journal of quantum chemistry》2005,103(2):167-175

Structures, energies, and vibrational frequencies have been calculated for two C₅₀H₄₀ isomers with three dodecahedrane cages sharing two pentagons at the B3LYP/6‐31G* level of theory. Thus, two C₅₀H₄₀ isomers have the form of coplanar tri‐dodecahedrane‐cage molecules. The symmetry of one isomer is D_5d and that of another is C_2V. Heats of formation and vertical ionization energies for two C₅₀H₄₀ isomers have been estimated in this study. Heats of formation as well as vibrational analysis indicate that two C₅₀H₄₀ isomers enjoy sufficient stability to allow for its experimental preparation. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
