Abstract
Heats of solution of 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane (18-crown-6) in acetonitrile, 1,2-dichloroethane, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, nitromethane, propylene carbonate, pyridine and water were measured at 25 °C and the enthalpies of the transfer of 18-crown-6 from waterto the aprotic solvents were derived. The thermodynamic quantities, Δ G1°, Δ H1° and TΔ S1°, for the formation of the[M(18-crown-6)]+ (M+ = Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, NH4+) complexeswere determined by titration calorimetry in dimethyl sulfoxide containing0.1 mol dm-3 (C2H5)4NClO4 as a constant ionic medium at 25 °C. These thermodynamic quantities suggest that the complexationof 18-crown-6 with the alkali-metal ions mainly reflects the different solvationof 18-crown-6 and also the different degree of solvent structure.
