2938 The most pronounced difference between the studies on the acids and on the thioacids lies in the temperature range. The present experiments were performed with HBS2(s) mostly at temperatures below loo", where the principal species are (HBS2)3(g) and H2S(g), but the experiments on the oxygen acids employed the reaction between water and boric oxide above 800°, where the principal species is HB02(g). The great difference in the volatilities of the acids and thioacids arises presumably because of hydrogen bonding in the former. The second difference is that the species found mass spectrometrically in the sulfur system are more numer-

ous and more complicated than in the oxygen ~ y s t e m . ~ The third difference is that metastable decompositions have not been reported for the oxygen acids. Finally, the extensive studies on the spectra and thermodynamic properties of oxygen specie^^-^ have not yet been accomplished for the sulfur analogs. Acknowledgments.

Bond Energies and the Interactions between Next-Nearest Neighbors. 111. Gaseous and Liquid Alkanes, Cyclohexane, Alkylcyclohexanes, and Decalins' A. Joseph Kalb,2 Alice L. H. Chung, and Thomas L. Allen

Contribution f r o m the Department of Chemistry, University of California, Davis, California 9.5616. Received January 20, 1966 Abstract: The heats of formation of alkanes, cyclohexane, alkylcyclohexanes,and decalins are expressed as a linear function of seven structural parameters for both the gaseous and liquid states. Root-mean-square differences between calculated and experimental values are *0.0185 kcal mole-' bond-1 for 56 gases and 10.0214 kcal mole-' bond-' for 63 liquids. In branched hydrocarbons the energy contributions by gauche-n-butane and gauche-gauche prime n-pentane structures are similar to those in the rotational isomers of normal paraffins. In some molecules the effect of a gauche-n-butanestructure is accentuated by locking, where the H . H distance cannot be increased by internal rotation about any carbon-carbon bond without simultaneously decreasing the H . . .H distance in another interaction. The energetic effects of H . H interactions in ordinary and locked gauche-n-butane have been calculated independently by energy minimization.

n the first paper3 of this series it was shown that inclusion of a single parameter, the next-nearestneighbor interaction energy, removed practically all of the deviation from constancy in bond-energy calculations. Two other parameters, a trigonal interaction and a steric interaction between fifth-neighbor hydrogen atoms of the gauche-n-butane type, gave additional small but significant improvements. Molecules which were treated included the CI through C, alkanes, some cyclanes, diamond, the sulfanes, Ss, and some alkyl mercaptans, sulfides, and disulfides. This approach has been applied to many other molecules by McCullough and Good,4 and by Skinner and co-workers,"'O and the theoretical basis of the method has been explored. 11s12 (1) Abstracted in part from the Ph.D. dissertation of A.

The present study was undertaken to obtain more accurate equations for the heats of formation of saturated hydrocarbons and to obtain further information about steric interactions in these molecules. We were also interested in applying the method to liquids as well as gases. Treatment of Data Our general approach was to adjust the coefficients in linear equations for heats of formation (similar to eq 33 and 35 of ref 3) so as to give optimum correlation with the experimental data. The equations were of the form

-AHfo = AKK

+ Ann + A x X + A T T + A S S + A z Z f A L L (1)

The A's are the coefficients to be determined, and K,n, etc., are the structural parameters. K reflects differences between the numbers of C-H and C-C bonds; it is 1 for acyclic, 0 for unicyclic, and - 1 for bicyclic compounds. n is the number of carbon atoms; X is the number of pairs of next-nearest-neighbor carbon atoms. For the alkanes beyond methane it is conveniently calculated by eq 8 of ref 3. T i s the number of trigonal (11) T. L. Allen and H. Shull, J . Chem. Phys., 35, 1644 (1961). (12) M. Cignitti and T. L.
