Calorimetric investigation of the interactions between oxygen and hydroxyl groups in (alcohol+ether) at 298.15 K

Flow-calorimetric measurements of excess enthalpies at 298.15 K are reported for 17 mixtures of (an alcohol + an ether). The alcohol is methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, or heptan-1-ol; the ether is butyl ether, methyl butyl ether, diethylether, 3,6-dioxaoctane, or 2,5,8-trioxanonane. The results indicate that interactions between alcohol and ether which are a consequence of the interactions between the hydroxyl and the oxygen groups increase almost linearly with the surface fraction of oxygen in the ether molecule. These interactions are more important in the case of short-chain alcohols.

Vibration Spectra and Rotational Isomerism of Chain Molecules. I. Methyl Propyl Ether, Ethyl Propyl Ether, and Butyl Methyl Ether

Abstract The Raman and infrared spectra of methyl propyl ether, ethyl propyl ether, and butyl methyl ether were measured for the gaseous, liquid, glassy and crystalline states. The normal vibration frequencies were calculated, a consistent set of force constants explaining the frequencies of basic aliphatic ethers being assumed. The rotational isomerism was studied and the following conclusions were obtained. (1) Only the all-trans form exists in the crystalline state. (2) Another form which takes the gauche conformation about the OC–CC axis and the trans conformation about the CC–CC and CO–CC axes exists in the glassy state. (3) Other forms also exist in the liquid state. These results confirmed that the repulsive force between nonbonded hydrogen atoms was one of the important factors influencing the stability of molecular conformations. The stable conformations of the ether molecules were correlated with those of polyether chains.

Thermodynamic properties of organic oxygen compounds 40. Heat capacity and entropy of six ethers

Measurements of the heat capacity and enthalpy of fusion of methyl propyl ether, methyl i-propyl ether, methyl butyl ether, methyl t-butyl ether, methyl decyl ether, and ethyl propyl ether in the crystal and liquid states between 12 and 350 K are reported. Thermodynamic functions for crystals and liquids and entropies of ideal gases have been calculated from the measurements and other data.

Free-radical substitution in aliphatic compounds. Part XV. The chlorination of butyl methyl ether and dibutyl ether

The photochemical chlorination of ethers is shown to result in predominant attack at the carbon atoms to which the ether oxygen is attached. The resultant radical is unstable and in the gas phase breaks down to yield an alkyl radical and an aldehyde. Assuming that attack at the α-positions yields the aldehyde quantitatively, we calculated values for relative rates of attack RSpx in butyl methyl ether.

Catalysis by hydrogen halides in the gas phase. X. Tertiary butyl methyl ether and hydrogen chloride

The decomposition of t-butyl methyl ether catalysed by hydrogen chloride takes place at 337-428�. It is first order in each reactant and the rate is not affected by increase in surface area or inhibitor. The rate equation is: K2 = 1012.46exp(-32100/RT) (sec-l ml mole-l) The reaction is believed to be molecular and its properties are in accord with those of other such catalysed decompositions.
