NIST-JANAF Thermochemical Tables. I. Ten Organic Molecules Related to Atmospheric Chemistry

Abstract

The structural, spectroscopic, and thermodynamic properties of 10 gas phase organic molecules related to atmospheric chemistry, including three peroxides and four carboxylic acids, are reviewed. The calculation of the thermochemical tables involved the critical evaluation of new spectroscopic data, enthalpy of formation determinations, and the use of recent internal rotation data. Since insufficient information to characterize all 10 molecules exists, estimation schemes were used to provide the missing experimental and theoretical data.
