Thermochemical properties of crown ether compounds
The constant-volume combustion energies have been determined for three kinds of crown ether (CE) using a precision rotating-bomb calorimeter (RBC). The standard enthalpies of combustion, Delta H-CE(c)theta, and standard enthalpies of formation, Delta H-CE(f)theta have been calculated for these CE. Two empirical formulas have been proposed about the standard combustion enthalpies of aromatic CE.
