Iknsilies, viscosities and vapor pressures of six o,w-dinitriles, NC(CH?),,CS for n = 3 t,hrough 8, have been measured; the vapor preseure of succinonit,rile (n = 2) also has been det,ermined. Constant,s in the viscosity-temperature relation log 7 = d B / ( C T ) and in t'he vapor pressure-temperature relat,ion log p = A ' - B ' / T were calculated. Empirical equations, one relating vapor pressure, temperature and n, the other relat,ing the heat of vaporization and n were established. Ahequat'ion, derived by L. A. Girifalco, was found to give a linear relation between vapor pressure, viscosity and temperature for the a.u-dinit,riles.

Introduction The densities, viscosities and vapor pressures of six a,w-dinitriles, NC(CH,),CN, where n equals 3 t'hrough 8, were measured; vapor pressures of succinonitrile also were measured. The densities and viscosities were measured a t 15, 25 and 35", and the mpor pressures were measured in the range of 5 to 70'. The viscosity, vapor pressure and temperature data for the a,w-dinitriles were found to fit an equation derived by Girifalco.' Experimental

chloride was removed 'inz!(ccuo and the rwidue was dist,illed to yield 364.7 g. (90.0%) of azelaoyl chloride; b.p. 96.7102.0' at 0.2 to 0.4 mm. A 4-liter beaker, fitted with an efficient stirrer, thernionirter, fritted glass delivery tube and cooled in an ethanolice bath, n-as charged with 3000 ml. (44.4 moles "3) of K",OH precooled to 0". Additional ammonia (170 g., 10.0 moles) was added from a tank. Then 364.7 g. (1.62 moles) of azelaoyl chloride was added dropmise over a onehour period at, 0 to 5' while a second 170-g. portion of ammonia was added through the gas delivery tube. Bfter 1 . 5 hours the whit,e precipitate r a s collected, nmhed with water and dried under vacuum at 60". The yield of azelaamide was 291.2 g. (96.5%); m.p. 173.4-178.1' (lit,.Bm.p. 175"). The azelaamide (1.56 moles) in 1250 ml. of pure thionyl chloride was heated to reflux over a period of four hours and then refluxed for an additional seven hours when no more gas was evolved. Excess thionyl chloride was removed in vacuo, and the residue was dissolved in 500 ml. of 1,2-dichloroethane. After washing with 10% KOH, water and saturated sodium chloride solution and t,Iien drying over anhydrous potassium carbonate, the solvent was removed. Two distillations gave 196.6 g. (83.9%) of pure azelaonitrilc, b.p. 105.0-105.2" (0.1 mm.); n 2 5 ~1.4439 (lit.? n 2 5 ~1.4426). Density.-The densit,ics were measured vith a one-milliliter SprengeMype pycnometer which had been calibrat,ed with m t e r ; the densit,ies at 15, 25 and $5" are given in Table I. The temperat,iire of the bath wa,s controlled to within =k 0.02'. Viscosity.-The viscosities, at, 15, 25 and 35", were measured with an Ubbelohde-type viscometer which had been calibrated with distilled water; the values for bhc. viscosity of water were obtained from thv data of Webers and were based on an absolute viscosity of 1.0020 centipoise at 20". Kinetic energy corrections were made where necessary. Vapor Pressure.-The vapor pressures, using between 0.3 and 1.O ml. of sample, were measured with t.he piston manometer apparatus of Pitman and Ernsberger.9 KOchange i n vapor pressure was observed over a period of about a weck indicating the absence of more volatile impurities not detectable by the infrared spectra. The temperature of t11c bath was controlled to within 10.007" and was read to the nearest 0.01' on a thermometer which had heen c wit,h a Kational Bureau of Standards platinum r thermometer.

Reagents.--hll of the dinitriles except, suberonitrile and azelaonii rile were obtained from commercial sources. Succinonitrile as obtained from the Matheson Co. and needed no purification since sublimation and recrystallization failed to change the vapor pressure or the freezing point (57.4"; lit.2 56.9"). The infrared spectra of glutaronitrile, adiponitrile, pimelonitrile m d sebaconitrile indicated the presence of small of caarbonyl containing impurities. These imere removed by t>reatingthe dinitriles with either 10% aqueous KOH or methanolic KOH solution. In most instances one distillation sufficed to give spectroscopically pure material. Using the above procedure the following materials irere obtained: glutaronitrile, b.p. 94.9" (1.1 mm.), n251) 1.4332 (lit,.3 ~ Z O D 1.42947); adiponitrile, b.p. 101.5-101.7° (0.7 mni.), n25~1.4366 (lit.4 n25~ 1.4369); pimelonitrile, b.p. 116.0-116.1" (0.9 mm.), 7 2 2 5 ~ 1.4398 (lit.6 n2Oti 1.4472); and sebaconitrile, b.p. 127.0' (0.2 mm.) 7 1 2 5 ~1.4462 (lit,.5n% 1.4474). Suberonitrik-A solution of 205.6 g. (3.0 moles) of 95% IiCN in 250 nil. of water and 875 ml. of 95% ethanol was heated to reflux. The heating mantle was removed, and then 408.6 g. (1.21 moles) of 1,6-diiodohexane was added over a pwiod of 35 minutes. When the exothermic reaction had subpided, the mixture was refluxed for two hours. Approximaiely 900 ml. of ethanol-water then was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The suberonitrile layer was separated, and the aqueous phase extracted with benzene. The extracts were combined with the crude dinitrile and washed, respectively, wit,h water, 10% sodium thiosu1f:itcX :ind saturatrd sodium chloride solution, and then tiricd over anhydrous magnesium sulfat,e. Distillation of the rrude dinitrile gave a material which contained halogcn Results hnt no carbonyl impurities.
