Abstract

The present study reports a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study of the barbituric acid derivatives: 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid [CAS 769-42-6], 5,5-dimethylbarbituric acid [CAS 24448-94-0], 1,3-diethylbarbituric acid [CAS 32479-73-5], 1,3,5-trimethylbarbituric acid [CAS 7358-61-4], 1,5,5-trimethylbarbituric acid [CAS 702-47-6], and tetramethylbarbituric acid [CAS 13566-66-0] 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 solid compounds as a function of temperature are reported.
