How to use the BDE data tables

All BDE data are filed into 225 separated tables. The C-H BDE in methane provides an example of how to find the BDEs. [Pg.7]

The first column in this table shows the broken bonds. The boldface emphasizes the dissociated atom or group here, the H is boldfaced. For example, CH3CH2-CH2CH3 shows a secondary C-H bond in n-butane is broken (CH3CH2)3N shows a secondary C-H bond in triethylamine is broken. All expressions are similar. The heat ot formation ot tree radicals is shown in this cell. Chapter 29 includes tables ot all AfH°(R). [Pg.8]

The second column shows the experimental values ot BDEs tor the given bond. The numbers (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5) show five different resources or references. The recommended value is emphasized by boldface. [Pg.8]

The third column shows various experimental methods tor the relevant BDE value. For an explanation ot terms, see the Notations and Abbreviations list in this book. [Pg.8]

The fourth column shows the references tor the given experimental methods and tor the relevant BDE value. A maximum ot five values are provided. This is sufficient tor most users. Readers can search tor more references while using the references here. [Pg.8]
