Heats of Combustion of the Five-Carbon Fatty Acids and their Methyl and Ethyl Esters

Abstract: The heats of combustion, heats of formation and resonance energies of the isomeric five-carbon fatty acids and of their methyl and ethyl esters have been determined. Based on previously reported isomerization energies of six-carbon alkanes, resonance energies of the acids and esters have been corrected for the chain-branching effect to obtain values which do not differ significantly among a group of isomers.

“…The previous (2) determinations of the standard molar enthalpies of combustion of 2,2-diMeProp and 3-MeBut, −(2832.2 ± 5.9) kJ · mol −1 and −(2835.1 ± 5.9) kJ · mol −1 , respectively, are in reasonable agreement, within the associated uncertainties, with those reported here. However, the uncertainities are considerably reduced.…”

“…This last combustion result has been shown to be unreliable; Lebedeva, (4) in 1964, reported −(2836.5 ± 0.7) kJ · mol −1 and Adriaanse et al, (5) in 1965, gave −(2838.0 ± 0.6) kJ · mol −1 ; these authors used samples of high purity and made tests to establish completeness of combustion. Hence, the results of Hancock et al (2) must be regarded with some caution. Since carboxylic acids are very reactive species, it is important to have not only very accurate but also very precise values for their standard molar enthalpies of formation, which are key values on the thermochemical reactions involving these compounds.…”
