Thermodynamic properties of 5(nitrophenyl) furan-2-carbaldehyde isomers

Revision and Extension of a Generally Applicable Group-Additivity Method for the Calculation of the Standard Heat of Combustion and Formation of Organic Molecules

The calculation of the heats of combustion ΔH°c and formation ΔH°f of organic molecules at standard conditions is presented using a commonly applicable computer algorithm based on the group-additivity method. This work is a continuation and extension of an earlier publication. The method rests on the complete breakdown of the molecules into their constituting atoms, these being further characterized by their immediate neighbor atoms. The group contributions are calculated by means of a fast Gauss-Seidel fitting calculus using the experimental data of 5030 molecules from literature. The applicability of this method has been tested by a subsequent ten-fold cross-validation procedure, which confirmed the extraordinary accuracy of the prediction of ΔH°c with a correlation coefficient R2 and a cross-validated correlation coefficient Q2 of 1, a standard deviation σ of 18.12 kJ/mol, a cross-validated standard deviation S of 19.16 kJ/mol, and a mean absolute deviation of 0.4%. The heat of formation ΔH°f has been calculated from ΔH°c using the standard enthalpies of combustion for the elements, yielding a correlation coefficient R2 for ΔH°f of 0.9979 and a corresponding standard deviation σ of 18.14 kJ/mol.

Thermodynamic properties of some isomeric 5-(nitrophenyl)-furyl-2 derivatives

BACKGROUND

The aim of the current work was to determine thermodynamical properties of 5-(nitrophenyl)-2-furaldehyde oximes and 3-[5-(nitrolphenyl)-2-furyl]acrylic acids.

RESULTS

The temperature dependences of saturated vapor pressures of 5-(nitrophenyl)-2-furaldehyde oximes and 3-[5-(nitrolphenyl)-2-furyl]acrylic acids were determined by the Knudsen effusion method. The results are presented by the Clapeyron-Clausius equation in linear form, and via this form, the standard enthalpies of sublimation of compounds were calculated at 298.15 K. The standard molar formation enthalpies of compounds in crystalline state at 298.15 K were determined indirectly from the corresponding standard molar combustion enthalpy, obtained using combustion bomb calorimetry. The non-nearest neighbour interactions (strain) in molecule were defined. The ideal-gas enthalpies of investigated compounds formation and the data available from the literature were used for calculation of group-additivity parameters and the correction terms useful in the application of the Benson correlation.

CONCLUSION

Determining the thermodynamic properties for these compounds will contribute to solving practical problems pertaining to optimization processes of their synthesis, purification and application. It will also provide a more thorough insight regarding the theoretical knowledge of their nature and are necessary for the application of the Benson group-contribution correlation for calculation of Δ f H m ( 298.15 K ) o (g)calc.
