Abstract

Thermochemical properties of pyrimidine, pyrazine, and pyridazine have been measured and re-evaluated to provide benchmark quality results. A new internally consistent data set of Δf Hm°(g) has been obtained from combustion calorimetry and vapor pressure measurements. The gas and condensed phase enthalpies of formation of the parent diazines have been re-evaluated, and the results were compared to current theoretical calculations using the highly accurate first-principles methods: G3, G4, CBSAPNO, W1(RO). Simple “corrected atomization procedures” to derive theoretical Δf Hm°(g) directly from the enthalpies H298 have been tested and recommended as an alternative to using the bond separation and isodesmic reaction models for organic cyclic and heterocyclic compounds containing one to three nitrogen atoms.
