HEAT CAPACITY AND THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF p prime -SUBSTITUTED p-n-HEXYLOXYBENZYLIDENEANILINE 3. p-n-HEXYLOXYBENZYLIDENEAMINO-p prime -FLUOROBENZENE (HBAF).

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00268948208084449

The heat capacity of HBAF was measured between 15 K and 385 K. Four phase transitions were found at 328. 07 K (crystal-smectic B); 330. 33 K (smectic B-smectic A); 334. 88 K (smectic A-nematic); and 336. 33 K (nematic-isotropic liquid), respectively. The enthalpies and entropies of these transitions were determined to be 23. 22 kJ mol** minus **1/70. 7 JK** minus **1 mol** minus **1; 305/9. 2; 3. 41/10. 2; and 1. 17/3. 5, respectively. The total transition entropy fo HBAF agreed well with those previously reported for the present homologues. The standard thermodynamic functions were estimated up to 385 K. The heat capacity curve of HBAF in the transition region had a close resemblance to that of p-n-hexyloxybenzylideneamino-p prime -chlorobenzene. The entropies of the smectic A-nematic and nematic-isotropic liquid transitions were compared with those theoretically derived by McMillan. The smectic B-smectic A transition entropy was interpreted in terms of order-disorder phase transition associated with the orientation of molecule.
