  2. The melting temperature of a crystalline material is a fundamental physical property. A number of studies have shown the the melting temperature of linear molecules is not an additive property. The dependence on structure particularly as applied to polymers has been developed by Flory and others. Flory, P. J. Thermodynamics of Crystallization of High Polymers, IV. J. Chem.

  4. Melting temperatures of the even n-alkanes versus the number of methylene groups Question: How does the melting temperature of polyethylene compare? Tf(n) Melting temperature of polyethylene = 413 K; Polyethylene behaves as a member of the even series. Number of methylene groups, n Number of methylene groups, n

  5. Odd n-Alkanes Melting temperatures of the odd n-alkanes also appear to approach 413 K. Polyethylene appears to be common to both series. Tf(n) Polyethylene behaves as a member of the odd series as well. Number of methylene groups, n Melting points of the odd alkanes versus the number of methylene groups; circles: experimental data

  6. Melting temperatures from top to bottom (both even and odd series represented): 1,-dicarboxylic acids, even N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-alkanamides, even n-carboxylic acids, odd n-alkylbenzenes, odd 1-alkenes, odd versus the number of methylene groups.

  7. Why do the first few members of the series deviate from all the rest and why is there a difference between the odd and even members of the series?

  8. How can one take advantage of the hyperbolic melting behavior exhibited by these homologous series? The even n-alkanes pack similarly Tetracosane Eicosane

  9. Even n-Alkanes Even n-Alkanes The correlation between 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()] and the number of CH2groups for the even n-alkanes. The terms Tf (n) and Tf () represent the melting temperature of the compound with n CH2 groups and the melting point of polyethylene, 411 K, respectively 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()] Number of CH2 groups, n

  10. Odd n-Alkanes The correlation between the function 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()]and the number of CH2groups for the odd n-alkanes using Tf () = 411 K. 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()]

  11. Thelinear correlation observed between between 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()] and the number of CH2 groups, n, provided the following analytical expression which was used to fit the data using a non-linear least squares program: Tf (n) = Tf()*[1- 1/(mn + b)] m = slope; b = intercept n = number of carbons In all, melting temperature data was found and fit for over 50 homologous series containing a variety of functional groups and substitution patterns converging to to polyethylenein the limit. The deviation of the first few members of the series was explained in terms of packing in the solid state.

  12. Melting points of the odd alkanes versus the number of methylene groups; circles: experimental data, line: calculated results. Source of Data: Brandrup, J.; Immergut, E. H. (ed) Polymer Handbook, 3rd Ed. Wiley: NY. 1967 and many others.

  13. A comparison of the melting points of the even () and odd () n-alkanes

  14. Packing in the crystal lattice for the first few members of the series are dominated by the functional group. As the tail gets longer, the hydrocarbon tail dominates the packing

  15. d the first member of the series

  16. Utility of the Method If melting points of three or more of the series are available, and a plot of 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()] is linear, it is possible to predict the melting temperatures of the remaining members of the series.

  17. Melting Points of the Cycloalkanes Melting points of the cycloalkanes versus the number of methylene groups. Both even and odd members are included.

  18. What about homologous series related to other polymers?

  19. Perfluorinated Alkanes A plot of 1/[1-Tf (n)/Tf ()] versus the number of CF2 groups (even series). The melting point of Teflon is 605 K.

  20. Experimental melting points as a function of the number of repeat units circles: perfluoro-n-alkanes: Tfus() = 605 K squares: H[OCH2CH2]nOH: Tfus () = 342 K triangles: C2H5CO-[NH(CH2)5CO]n-NHC3H7.: Tfus() = 533 K

  21. What about series with parent compounds that melt above 411 K?

  22. Experimental melting or smetic/nematic  isotropic transition temperatures for the odd series of 4-alkoxy- 3-fluorobenzoic acids, trans-4’-n-alkoxy-3-chlorocinnamic acids, 6-alkoxy-2-naphthoic acids, and the even series of 8-alkyltheophyllines; symbols: experimental data; lines: drawn to identify different series

  23. Summary Ascending hyperbola A plot of1/[1-T /T ()] vs n, the number of repeat units results in a linear relationship and T = T()*[1- 1/(mn + b)]

  24. Summary Descending hyperbola A plot of1/[1-T()/T)] vs n, the number of repeat units, results in a linear relationship and T= T ()/[1- 1/(mn + b)]

  25. Melting temperatures of the dialkylarsinic acids (odd series)

  26. 1/[1- T(n)/T(n)] A plot of 1/[1- T(n)/T(n)] vs n for the dialkylarsinic acids. A value of 380 K was used for T. Number of methylene groups, n

  27. Melting temperatures of the dialkylarsinic acids (odd series)

  28. trans-4’-n-alkoxy-3-chlorocinnamic acids, 6-alkoxy-2-naphthoic acids, and the even series of 8-alkyltheophyllines; symbols: experimental data; lines: calculated using a value of 380 K for T().

  29. 400.5 K 360 K n → ; Tf → AH/AS n-alkanes dialkyl arsinic acids n-alkanes dialkyl arsinic acids

  30. Many of the compounds that show a decreasing melting temperature with increasing number of repeat units form liquid crystals. Since liquid crystals can show several transition on route from crystal to isotropic liquid. Which if any of these transitions can be fit to T= T ()/[1- 1/(mn + b)]?

  31. T = 380 K Do not form liquid crystals

  33. Fusion Temperatures and Total Phase Change Entropy Liquid Crystals

  34. Compounds for the Most Part That Do Not Form Liquid Crystals

  35. Why is the total phase change entropy of liquid crystals over estimated? Possible reasons for overestimating ∆Stpce • The existence of undetected solid-solid phase transition at low temperatures • Larger heat capacity of the liquid/solid phase relative to normal substances Sorai, M.; Asanina, S.; Destrade, C; Tinh, N. H. Liq. Cryst., 7, 163-180 1990.

  36. Entropy Change from T = 15 to 385 K crystal → isotropic liquid liquid crystal liquid crystal liquid crystal crystal → isotropic liquid crystal → isotropic liquid

  37. Why do liquid crystal form?

  38. The total entropy change from T = 15 to 285 K (clearing point) of both compounds that do and do not form liquid crystals appear to correlate ∆Stpce for those compounds melting not forming liquid crystals are reasonably reproduced The suggests a larger heat capacity of the solid and/or the liquid phase relative to normal substances for those members forming liquid crystals. Most liquid crystals have a two very different structural components; a rigid cyclic component (head group) and a more flexible tail. For short tails the head group dominates the packing in the crystal. For long tails, on their way to polyethylene, the tail dominates. In between, neither group dominates, resulting in a high density of low energy states, especially with regards to the tail. The result is often a liquid crystal.
