Abstract

The present study reports a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study of the solid aldehydes: 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde [123-08-0] 1; 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (vanillin) [121-33-5] 2; 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (ethyl vanillin) [121-32-4] 3; 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (veratraldehyde) [120-14-9] 4 and 4-methoxycinnamaldehyde [1963-36-6] 5, in the temperature interval from T=268 K to their respective melting temperatures. Temperatures, enthalpies and entropies of fusion and the heat capacities of the compounds as a function of temperature are reported.
