By measuring the electron-transfer equilibria 1, A(-) + B = A + B(-), at 150 deg C with a pulsed electron high-pressure mass spectrometer we determined the ΔGo1 values involving 12 new compounds.Measurements of the temperature dependence of K1 for 21 reactions involving some of the new compounds and many compounds whose ΔGo1 had been determined previously led, via van't Hoff plots, to ΔHo1 and ΔSo1 values.These were interconnecting such that ΔHo and ΔSo continuous scales (ladders) were obtained.These were anchored to SO2 whose electron affinity is accurately known.Available geometries and vibrational frequencies for SO2 and SO2(-) permit the evaluation of So(SO2(-)) - So(SO2).Through the ΔSo scale the So(B(-)) - So(B) for the other compounds B could be obtained also.Certain regularities in the So(B(-)) - So(B) data permitted entropy estimates to be made also for compounds for which no van't Hoff plots were made.In this manner a table of ΔHo, ΔSo, and ΔGo data for the electron capture e + B = B(-) was obtained, which contains some 50 compounds B.Most of the compounds are substituted benzenes, quinones, conjugated acid anhydrides, and perfluorinated organics.
