The effects on ionic heats of formation of the multiple substitution of -CH3, -OH, or -OCH3 groups, in place of H atoms, are described. It is shown that for all three substituents, good linear correlations exist between ΔHf(ion) and the logarithm of the number of atoms in the ion (i.e. a quantity proportional to ionic size). The changes in ΔHf(ion) resulting from successive substitutions at a charge-bearing atom or π-system essentially depend only upon the specific nucleophilic character of the group and the size of the resultant ion. Examples are given of the utility of these correlations in estimating new ionic heats of formation.

It is shown that gas-phase heats of formation of homologous odd-electron organic cations can be well represented by an equation of the form ΔHf[ion]+• = A − Bn + C/n, where A, B, and C are constants and n is the total number of atoms in the molecule. Values for A, B, and C have been determined for the linear homologous series: alkanes, olefins, alkynes, alkanols, aliphatic ethers, aliphatic aldehydes, aliphatic ketones, alkanoic acids, alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides. For each of these series, correction terms for chain branching, double-bond position, and asymmetry effects are also given. These equations can be applied to molecules containing 40 or more atoms. The data base for this work is also presented.

The standard enthalpies of hydrogenation of 29 unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds were calculated in the gas phase by M06-2X theory with the 6-31g(d) and cc-pVXZ, where X = DZ, TZ, QZ, as well as by complete basis set extrapolated level. Geometries of compounds were optimized at the M06-2X/6-31g(d) level. These M06-2X geometries were used in the M06-2X, and extrapolation calculations with cc-pVXZ basis sets. Comparison of calculation and experimental results shows that the mean absolute deviations between the calculated and experimental enthalpies of hydrogenation range from 25.1 to 5.1 kJ mol−1 at M06-2X calculations, and when using cc-pV(DT)Z extrapolated level, the mean absolute deviations have decreased to 2.7. The results of some calculations showed that the deviations from experimental values are located inside the “chemical accuracy” (±1 kcal mol−1≈±4.2 kJ mol−1). Very good linear correlations between experimental and calculated enthalpies of hydrogenation have been obtained at M06-2X/cc-pVTZ and cc-pV(DT)Z extrapolated levels (standard deviation = 3.2 and 3.4 kJ mol−1, respectively).

Standard enthalpies of hydrogenation of 29 unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds were calculated in the gas phase by CCSD(T) theory with complete basis set cc-pVXZ, where X = DZ, TZ, as well as by complete basis set limit extrapolation. Geometries of reactants and products were optimized at the M06-2X/6-31g(d) level. This M06-2X geometries were used in the CCSD(T)/cc-pVXZ//M06-2X/6-31g(d) and cc-pV(DT)Z extrapolation calculations. (MAD) the mean absolute deviations of the enthalpies of hydrogenation between the calculated and experimental results that range from 8.8 to 3.4 kJ mol−1 based on the Comparison between the calculation at CCSD(T) and experimental results. The MAD value has improved and decreased to 1.5 kJ mol−1 after using complete basis set limit extrapolation. The deviations of the experimental values are located inside the “chemical accuracy” (±1 kcal mol−1 ≈ ±4.2 kJ mol−1) as some results showed. A very good linear correlations between experimental and calculated enthalpies of hydro-genation have been obtained at CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ//M06-2X/6-31g(d) level and CCSD(T)/cc-pV(DT)Z extrapolation levels (SD =2.11 and 2.12 kJ mol−1, respectively).

The flowing afterglow technique has been employed in measurements of the rate and equilibrium constants at 296 ± 2 K for reactions of the type[Formula: see text]and[Formula: see text]where R1 and R2 may be H, CH3, or C2H5. The equilibrium constant measurements provided absolute values for the intrinsic (gas-phase) acidities of the Brønsted acids CH3NH2, C2H5NH2, (CH3)2NH, and (CH3)3N, the heats of formation of their conjugate bases, and the electron affinities of the corresponding radicals R1R2N. Proton removal energies, ΔG0298/(kcal mol−1), were determined to be 395.7 ± 0.7 for [Formula: see text] 391.7 ± 0.7 for [Formula: see text] 389.2 ± 0.6 for [Formula: see text] and > 396 for [Formula: see text] Heats of formation, ΔH0f.,298, were determined to be 30.5 ± 1.5 for CH3NH−, 21.2 ± 1.5 for C2H5NH−, and 24.7 ± 1.4 for (CH3)2N−. Electron affinities (in kcal mol−1) were determined to be 13.1 ± 3.5 for CH3NH, 17 ± 4 for C2H5NH, and 14.3 ± 3.4 for (CH3)2N. These results quantify earlier conclusions regarding the intrinsic effects of substituents on the gas-phase acidity of amines and provide an experimental assessment of recent molecular orbital calculations of proton removal energies for alkylamines.
