Energy characteristics of nitrooxazolidines and their radicals

Abstract

The standard molar enthalpies of combustion for three methyl and dimethyl nitrooxazolidine derivatives in the liquid and crystalline states were determined using a high-precision static bomb combustion calorimeter. The resulting values were used to derive the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the azidomethyl-N-nitrooxazolidines. The standard molar enthalpies of vaporization for these compounds were measured using a Calvet microcalorimeter. The enthalpies of formation of some nitrooxazolidine-derived radicals and biradicals were calculated.
