Chemical equilibrium of the reactive systems of benzyl alcohol with tert-alkyl ethers was studied in the liquid phase in the temperature range (298 to 373) K and with a cation exchanger Amberlist 15 as a catalyst. Enthalpies of reactions involving benzyl alcohol were obtained from the temperature dependence of the equilibrium constants according to the Second Law and used to derive averaged standard enthalpies of formation of benzyl alcohol ΔfHm(1,298.15K) = -(154-5 ± 1.7) kJ·mol-1 in the liquid state. Vapor pressures and enthalpy of vaporization, ΔlgH m(298.15 K), of benzyl alcohol were determined using transpiration method. The latter value, together with the reliable literature data, provided an averaged result ΔlgHm(298.15 K) = (65.75 ± 0.51) kJ·mol-1. Both averaged results for ΔfHm(1,298.15K)o and ΔfHm(298.15 K) were used to calculate and to recommend the value of enthalpy of formation of benzyl alcohol in the gaseous state ΔfHm(298.15K)o = -(88.8 ± 1.8) kJ·mol-1. Auxiliary data for tert-butyl benzyl ether (energy of combustion, vapor pressures, and enthalpy of vaporization) were measured using calorimetry and transpiration method.

Thermodynamic properties of benzyl halides: Enthalpies of formation, strain enthalpies, and carbon-halogen bond dissociation enthalpies
Verevkin, Sergey P.,Krasnykh, Eugen L.,Wright, James S.
, p. 2605 - 2611 (2007/10/03)
The molar enthalpies of formation of benzyl halides PhCH2-X, PhCH(CH3)-X, and PhC(CH3)2-X, where X = F, Cl, Br, and I are in the gaseous state, have been derived by combination of our own thermochemical measurem
