The enthalpies of formation and reorganization of aromatic radicals

详细

The enthalpies of formation of some biphenyl derivatives were determined. A "double difference" method for calculating the enthalpies of formation of aromatic radicals and the bond dissociation energies was proposed. The enthalpies of formation of the radicals biphenyl, diphenyl oxide, and phenyl oxide were determined. The energies of reorganization of these radicals as well as phenyl and 4-, 3-, and 2-pyridyls were calculated. The sums of the energies of the chemical bonds in the molecular moieties transformed into radicals upon the decomposition of chemical compounds were found to be constant for different compounds. The energies of the chemical bonds in arenes were determined.
