RESUMO
The standard molar enthalpies of formation of chloro-, bromo-, and iodoacetic acids in the crystalline state, at 298.15 K, were determined as deltafH(o)m(C2H3O2Cl, cr alpha)=-(509.74+/- 0.49) kJ x mol(-1), deltafH(o)m(C2H3O2Br, cr I)-(466.98 +/- 1.08) kJ x mol(-1), and deltafH(o)m (C2H3O2I, cr)=-(415.44 +/- 1.53) kJ x mol(-1), respectively, by rotating-bomb combustion calorimetry. Vapor pressure versus temperature measurements by the Knudsen effusion method led to deltasubH(o)m(C2H3O2Cl)=(82.19 +/- 0.92) kJ x mol(-1), deltasubH(o)m(C2H3O2Br)=(83.50 +/- 2.95) kJ x mol(-1), and deltasubH(o)m-(C2H3O2I) = (86.47 +/- 1.02) kJ x mol(-1), at 298.15 K. From the obtained deltafH(o)m(cr) and deltasubH(o)m values it was possible to derive deltafH(o)m(C2H3O2Cl, g)=-(427.55 +/- 1.04) kJ x mol(-1), deltafH(o)m (C2H3O2Br, g)=-(383.48 +/- 3.14) kJ x mol(-1), and deltafH(o)m(C2H3O2I, g)=-(328.97 +/- 1.84) kJ x mol(-1). These data, taken with a published value of the enthalpy of formation of acetic acid, and the enthalpy of formation of the carboxymethyl radical, deltafH(o)m(CH2COOH, g)=-(238 +/- 2) kJ x mol(-1), obtained from density functional theory calculations, led to DHo(H-CH2COOH)=(412.8 +/- 3.2) kJ x mol(-1), DHo(Cl-CH2COOH)=(310.9 +/- 2.2) kJ x mol(-1), DHo(Br-CH2COOH)=(257.4 +/- 3.7) kJ x mol(-1), and DHo(I-CH2COOH)=(197.8 +/- 2.7) kJ x mol(-1). A discussion of the C-X bonding energetics in XCH2COOH, CH3X, C2H5X, C2H3X, and C6H5X (X=H, Cl, Br, I) compounds is presented.
RESUMO
The standard (p(o) = 0.1MPa) molar enthalpies of formation for 2-, 3-, and 4-tert-butylphenol and 2,4- and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol in the gaseous phase were derived from the standard molar enthalpies of combustion, in oxygen, at 298.15 K, measured by static bomb combustion calorimetry and the standard molar enthalpies of evaporation at 298.15 K, measured by Calvet microcalorimetry: 2-tert-butylphenol, -184.7 +/- 2.6 kJ mol(-)(1); 3-tert-butylphenol, -198.0 +/- 2.1 kJ mol(-)(1); 4-tert-butylphenol, -187.3 +/- 3.3 kJ mol(-)(1); 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol -283.3 +/- 3.8 kJ mol(-)(1); 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol -272.0 +/- 4.0 kJ mol(-)(1). The most stable geometries of all mono- and disubstituted phenols as well as those of the corresponding radicals were obtained, respectively, by ab initio restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) and restricted Hartree-Fock open shell (ROHF) methods with the 6-31G basis set. The resulting geometries were then used to obtain estimates of the effect of the tert-butyl substituent on the O-H bond dissociation energy and on the formation enthalpies of all substituted phenols.
