The molecule BH must be sufficiently stable that its bond energy (enthalpy of atomization. AWa-m) and ionization potential (IEUH) can be measured. Once several proton affinities have been established in this way. many mote may be obtained by a technique known as ion cyclotron resonance spectroscopy and related methods,20 which measure the equilibrium concentrations of the species involved in the competition ...

This study reports bond energies, enthalpy, entropy, heat capacity, internal rotation potential, and structure data for a series of unsaturated peroxides. Thermochemical property groups are developed as well for future use in group additivity estimation methods. 

Golden and Benson have listed enthalpies of formation of free radicals and bond dissociation energies for many entities. Morton and Beckett have provided useful tables of bond energies, enthalpies, and free energies of formation. 

One of these techniques, referred to as Gaussian 2 (G2) theory, is described in this article. G2 theory is a general procedure, based on ab initio molecular orbital theory, for the accurate prediction of energies of molecular systems. This method has been widely used for the calculation of bond energies, enthalpies of formation, ionization potentials, electron affinities, ionization potentials, and proton affinities. The status of G2 theory, some modifications of the theory, and examples of its applications are presented in this article. 

Strictly, these values are bond enthalpies, but the term energies is commonly used. Other descriptions are average standard bond energies, mean bond energies . 

A/i the dissociation or bond energy of hydrogen (it is also, by definition, twice the enthalpy of atomisation two gram atoms being produced). 

A/14 the enthalpy of reaction, which is in this case twice the enthalpy of formation of hydrogen chloride. Clearly A/14 is the difference between the total bond energies of the products and the total bond energies ol the reactants, lhat is... 

The very low bond dissociation enthalpy of fluorine is an important factor contributing to the greater reactivity of fluorine. (This low energy may be due to repulsion between non-bonding electrons on the two adjacent fluorine atoms.) The higher hydration and lattice enthalpies of the fluoride ion are due to the smaller size of this ion. 

Electron affinity and hydration energy decrease with increasing atomic number of the halogen and in spite of the slight fall in bond dissociation enthalpy from chlorine to iodine the enthalpy changes in the reactions... 

Procedure. Run one or more simultaneous equation programs to determine the C—C and C—H bond energies and interpret the results. The error veetor is the veetor of ealeulated values minus the veetor of bond enthalpies taken as tme from an aeeepted source. Caleulate the enor veetor using a standard souree of bond enthalpies (e.g., Laidler and Meiser, 1999 or Atkins, 1994). Expand the method for 2-butene (2-butene) = —11 kJ mol ] and so obtain the C—H, C—C,... 

Once the BEs and SBEs have been decided upon, the normal functioning of the MM program causes each bond to be multiplied by the number of times it appears in the computed molecule to find its contribution to the total bond enthalpy. In ethylene, 26.43 + 4(—4.59) = 8.07kcalmol . In Eile Segment 5-1, this sum is denoted BE. This whole procedure is essentially a conventional bond energy calculation. 

The difference between an MM calculation of the enthalpy of formation and a bond energy scheme comes in the steric energy, which was shown in Eile 4-3. The sum of compression, bending, etc. energies is the steric energy, E = 2.60 kcal mol in Eile 4-3. This is added to BE, as is the partition function energy contribution (see below), PCE = 2.40 kcal moP, to yield... 

A second issue that arises in relation to isodesmic reaction enthalpies is why they should exist at all. If all we are doing is rearranging bonds, shouldn t the summed bond energies be the same on either side of the reaction Not really. A negative 6-3IG MP2 enthalpy of 5 kcal mol for the reaction...

Because these various quantities are characteristics of the reactants and products but are independent of the reaction path, they cannot provide insight into mechanisms. Information about AG, AH, and AS does, however, indicate the feasibility of any specific reaction. The enthalpy change of a given reaction can be estimated from tabulated thermochemical data or from bond-energy data such as those in Table 1.3 (p. 14) The exan le below illustrates the use of bond-energy data for estimating the enthalpy of a reaction. 

Whether AH for a projected reaction is based on bond-energy data, tabulated thermochemical data, or MO computations, there remain some fundamental problems which prevent reaching a final conclusion about a reaction s feasibility. In the first place, most reactions of interest occur in solution, and the enthalpy, entropy, and fiee energy associated with any reaction depend strongly on the solvent medium. There is only a limited amount of tabulated thermochemical data that are directly suitable for treatment of reactions in organic solvents. Thermodynamic data usually pertain to the pure compound. MO calculations usually refer to the isolated (gas phase) molecule. Estimates of solvation effects must be made in order to apply either experimental or computational data to reactions occurring in solution. 

The meaning of the word aromaticity has evolved as understanding of the special properties of benzene and other aromatic molecules has deepened. Originally, aromaticity was associated with a special chemical reactivity. The aromatic hydrocarbons were considered to be those unsaturated systems that underwent substitution reactions in preference to addition. Later, the idea of special stability became more important. Benzene can be shown to be much lower in enthalpy than predicted by summation of the normal bond energies for the C=C, C—C, and C—H bonds in the Kekule representation of benzene. Aromaticity is now generally associated with this property of special stability of certain completely conjugated cyclic molecules. A major contribution to the stability of aromatic systems results from the delocalization of electrons in these molecules. 

The heat of formation of 804X4 was determined to be AH°f = +163 kcal mor. " Thus 804X4 is even more endothermic than S4X4 (AH°f = +110 kcal mok ). The mean E-X bond energies in E4X4 were estimated to be 59 kcal mol (E = Se) " and 72 kcal mol (E = S) from the enthalpies of formation.
