Homogenous solution calorimetry

Titration calorimetry involves the measurement of heat evolved while adding a titrant. This technique is well established for determining reaction enthalpies in homogeneous solution (see refs. 15 and 16 for general reviews of the method) but has been used far less often to measure adsorption enthalpies in heterogeneous suspensions. Instead, adsorption studies have relied mainly on the... 

The seminal work of Marcus and Hush has had a significant impact on the development of PET. Pioneering efforts by Sutin, Hopfield, Jortner, and others established the connection between thermal electron transfer and photoelectron transfer [6]. This work set the stage for a notable series of experiments where laser flash spectroscopy [7], chemically induced nuclear polarization [8], resonance Raman spectroscopy [9], time-resolved microwave conductivity [10], and time-resolved photoacoustic calorimetry [11], to site only a few examples, have been successfully employed to chart the dynamics of PET in homogeneous solution, the solid-state, and organized assemblies. 

Mortimer and Sellers 123) measured the heat of combustion using rotating-bomb calorimetry Ph3As was burned in O2, in the presence of aqueous sodium hydroxide. The product was a homogeneous solution containing sodium arsenite, sodium arsenate, sodium carbonate, and sodium hydroxide. After analyzing the solution, corrections were made to allow for the heat effects due to formation of sodium carbonate and sodium arsenate. For the ideal reaction,... 

However, until recently, the homogeneous continuation of the reaction could be established only by indirect means, using kinetic and other methods. In 1946 Koval skii and Bogoyavlenskaya (137) proposed a method of differential calorimetry permitting a more accurate and unambiguous solution of this problem.

As supramolecular chemistry generically addresses the high-end regime of molecular interactions, it particularly profits from the universality and independence from material peculiarities (the absence or presence of labels or indicator probes, transparency, homogeneity, etc.), rendering the measurement of heat energy (calorimetry) traded in solution processes an indispensable tool to learn about and characterize noncovalent interactions. ...
