Abstract:Abstract-The PMR technique has been used to obtain thermodynamic data for hydrogen bonding of alkanethiols (RSH) in 1:l dimers in carbon tetrachloride. At ca. 303°K these are (R, C,HI1, 1.3 2, 0.7 & 0.3, 15 f 1. Alkanethiol self-association is weak, and although an exact expression [Eqn. (5)] reproduces spectral data precisely, the fit is sufficiently 'loose' or 'baggy' so that values of K, AH" and AS' are uncertain. The methodology of the treatment of self-association data and their errors is examined and Der… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
