Methane-, ethene-, and ethynesulfenic acids were generated in the gas phase by flash-vacuum pyrolysis of the corresponding tert-butyl sulfoxides at 400 °C and 10-4 Pa. Benzenesulfenic acid was prepared from phenyl 3-buten-1-yl sulfoxide at 350 °C and 10-4 Pa. The sulfenic acids were characterized by mass spectrometry Threshold ionization energies (IE) were measured as IE(CH3SOH) = 9·07 ± 0·03 eV, IE(CH2=CHSOH) = 8·70 ± 0·03 eV, IE(HCCSOH) = 8·86 ± 0·04 eV, and IE(C6H5SOH) = 8·45 + 0·03 eV. Radical cations [CH3SOH].+, [CH2=CHSOH].+, and [HCCSOH].+ were generated by electron-impact-induced loss of propene from the corresponding propyl sulfoxides and their heats of formation were assessed by appearance energy measurements as 685, 824, and 927 kJ mol-1, respectively. Heats of formation of the neutral sulfenic acids and the S-(O) (C), S-(O) (Cd), S-(O) (Ct) and S-(O) (CB) group equivalents were determined. The experimental data, supported by MNDO calculations, point to sulfenate-like structures (R-S-OH) for the sulfenic acids under study.

AbstractIonisation and appearance potentials were obtained for diazene HN = NH (prepared by thermolysis of TOSN2H2M, M = Li, Na, K), isodiazene H2N = N (prepared by thermolysis of TOSN2H2CS and N2H4 microwave radiolysis, respectively), and other hydrides N2Hn (cf. Table I). The following energy data (kcal/mole) have been determined for diazene: heat of formation (32), enthalpy of isomerisation to isodiazene (13), NN-dissoziation energy (122), NH-dissoziation energy (81), hydrogen atom affinity (45), proton affinity (176).
