Heats of vaporization of cyclopropyl cyanide and cyclopropylbenzene have been measured by vaporization calorimetry, and combined with liquid state heats of formation to give gaseous state heats of formation. When these compounds, cyclopropane, 1,1-dimethylcyclopropane, and cyclopropylamine are involved in (hypothetical) isodesmic reactions with ethane to give the isopropyl derivative and propane, the enthalpies of reaction are −116.0 ± 1.3 kJ mol−1, except for cyclopropylbenzene (−103.7 kJ mol−1). The latter is less exothermic, in part, because of slight steric destabilization of the product, isopropylbenzene, but mainly due to 8 kJ mol−1 stabilization of cyclopropylbenzene, which is the only of these cyclopropyl derivatives showing appreciable thermochemical stabilization.

The following heats of vaporization at 25 °C (ΔHv0) have been measured by vaporization calorimetry: cyclopropyl methyl ketone (39.41 ± 0.09 kJ mol−1). methyl cyclopropanecarboxylate (41.27 ± 0.06 kJ mol−1), cyclobutyl cyanide (44.34 ± 0.20 kJ mol−1), methyl cyclobutanecarboxylate (44.72 ± 0.09 kJ mol−1), ethylcyclobutane (31.24 ± 0.03 kJ mol−1), and cyclopentyl cyanide (48.12 ± 0.09 kJ mol−1). Values of ΔHv0 of the last four compounds have been combined with liquid state heats of formation to give new values of the gaseous state heats of formation (ΔHf(g)).When cyclobutyl cyanide, ethylcyclobutane, and cyclobutylamine are involved in hypothetical isodesmic reactions with ethane to give propane and isopropyl derivatives, the enthalpies of reaction are −102.1 ± 1.7 kJ mol−1 (−24.4 ± 0.4 kcal/mol), 8.3 kJ mol−1 (2.0 kcal/mol) less exothermic than the value for cyclobutane. Possible origins of this difference are discussed.

MINDO-Forces calculations have been performed with complete optimization of the geometries on stepwise fluorinated cyclopropanones and their enols. Increase in the number of fluorine atoms causes destabilization of cyclopropanone. Perfluorinated enol was found to be present in substantial concentration, as was mentioned in previous work. This is supported by calculations of Gibbs free energies and isodesmic reactions. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities, dipole moments and orbital energies (HOMO-LUMO) are reported.

MINDO-Forces calculations with complete geometry optimization have been performed on nitromethane, aci-nitromethane and X-substituted nitromethane and aci-nitromethane (X = F, OH, NH2, CH3, CN, CF3, NO2, CHO). It is found that nitromethane is more stable than aci-nitromethane by 9.337 kcal/mol. This agrees with theoretical calculations. Thermodynamically, substituted aci-nitro tautomers are more stable than the corresponding nitromethane, except in case of the substituent F. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities, Gibbs free energies and isodesmic reactions are reported.

We propose a new optimization algorithm inspired by the formation and change of the cloud in nature, referred to as Cloud Particles Differential Evolution (CPDE) algorithm. The cloud is assumed to have three states in the proposed algorithm. Gaseous state represents the global exploration. Liquid state represents the intermediate process from the global exploration to the local exploitation. Solid state represents the local exploitation. The best solution found so far acts as a nucleus. In gaseous state, the nucleus leads the population to explore by condensation operation. In liquid state, cloud particles carry out macrolocal exploitation by liquefaction operation. A new mutation strategy called cloud differential mutation is introduced in order to solve a problem that the misleading effect of a nucleus may cause the premature convergence. In solid state, cloud particles carry out microlocal exploitation by solidification operation. The effectiveness of the algorithm is validated upon different benchmark problems. The results have been compared with eight well-known optimization algorithms. The statistical analysis on performance evaluation of the different algorithms on 10 benchmark functions and CEC2013 problems indicates that CPDE attains good performance.

Natural gases are a mixture of hydrocarbons which are generally in a gaseous state. Due to the variation in transport parameters (pressure, temperature) and gas composition, there may be sectors where those appear in liquid state, the condensate. The paper presents a system for managing the quantities of fluids from a network in which the liquid state appears. Based on a simulator that includes flash computation, a physical balance of the transport or gathering network can be made.

AbstractA recently-developed density functional procedure for computing gas phase heats of formation is briefly described and results for several categories of energetic compounds are summarized and discussed. Liquid and solid phase values can be obtained by combining the gas phase data with heats of vaporization and sublimation estimated by means of other relationships. Some observed functional group effects upon heats of formation are noted.

The heats of vaporization of 1-methylcyclopentene, 3-methylcyclopentene, ethylidenecyclopentane, 1-ethylcyclopentene, methylenecyclohexane, allylcyclopentane, vinylcyclohexane, ethylidenecyclohexane, allylcyclohexane, 3,3-diethylpentane, 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpentane, and trans-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-hexene have been measured by the gas chromatography – calorimetry method. These values have been combined with previously reported liquid heats of formation to give gaseous values of ΔHf. The results indicate that the internal double bond is favored by about 0.5 kcal over the exo in both 5- and 6-membered rings, but the endo–exo differences are much smaller than previously believed. Several of the liquid heat capacities that were measured were not well predicted by group additivity schemes.
