This paper reports the viscosities measurements for the binary system dimethyl sulfoxide + 1,4-dimethylbenzene over the entire range of mole fraction at 298.15, 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The experimental viscosities were correlated with the equations of Grunberg-Nissan, Katti-Chaudhri, Hind, Soliman and McAllister; the adjustable binary parameters have been obtained. The excess Gibbs energy of activation of viscous flow (G*E) has been calculated from the experimental measurements and the results were fitted to Redlich-Kister polynomial equation. The obtained negative excess Gibbs free energy of activation and negative Grunberg-Nissan interaction parameter are discussed in structural and interactional terms.

Ethyl-3-amino-2-benzoyl-2-butenoate crystallizes from pentane as either the E (mp 82–84 °C) or the Z-isomer (mp 95.5–96.5 °C). The E isomer is less stable, and changes spontaneously into the Z, which bas been identified by X-ray crystallography. The structure is characterised by an N–H/ester CO hydrogen bond and a very long C2—C3 bond (1.39 Å). Nuclear magnetic resonance methods have been used to measure the rate of [Formula: see text] isomerization at several temperatures, leading to the estimate that the free energy of activation at 268 K is 56 ± 8 kJ.

Rms Error

Rate constants for hydration of carbon dioxide and ketene can be calculated by applying No Barrier Theory, which needs only equilibrium constants and distortion energies, the latter calculated using molecular orbital theory. The calculated free energies of activation are in satisfactory agreement with experiment: the rms error in free energy of activation is 2.38 kcal/mol. These compounds can also be described using Marcus Theory or Multidimensional Marcus Theory using the transferable intrinsic barrier appropriate to simple carbonyl compounds; in this case the rms error in free energy of activation is 2.19 kcal/mol. The two methods agree on preferred mechanistic path except for uncatalyzed hydration of ketene where Multidimensional Marcus Theory leads to a lower activation free energy for addition to the C=O, while No Barrier Theory leads to a lower free energy of activation for addition to the C=CH2. A rate constant for hydroxide ion catalyzed hydration of ketene can be calculated and is in accord with preliminary experimental results.Key words: ketene, carbon dioxide, hydration, Marcus Theory, No Barrier Theory.
