Enthalpies of combustion of 1,2-dihydroxybenzene and of six alkylsubstituted 1,2-dihydroxybenzenes

TL;DR: The standard (po = 101.325 kPa) molar enthalpies of combustion in oxygen at 298.15 K were measured by microcalorimetry for 1,2-dihydroxybenzene (catechol) and six alkylsubstituted catechols.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and pattern of cognitive impairment in rural and urban populations from Northern Portugal

TL;DR: The prevalence of cognitive impairment is higher in rural compared with urban populations, with the rural/urban prevalence ratio increasing with age, and the prevalence of dementia increases exponentially with age and in those with cerebrovascular disease or other comorbid conditions while the prevalence in persons with low levels of education or vascular risk factors is higher.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energetics of 6-methoxyquinoline and 6-methoxyquinoline N-oxide: the dissociation enthalpy of the (N–O) bond

TL;DR: In this article, the standard (p o = 1 MPa ) molar enthalpies of formation, at T =29815 K, were determined using static-bomb calorimetry for crystalline 6-methoxyquinoline N -oxide (6MeOQUINO), as −(856±37) kJ · mol −1 and liquid 6-meOQUI, −(258±22)kJ ·mol −1
Journal ArticleDOI

Enthalpies of Formation of N-Substituted Pyrazoles and Imidazoles

TL;DR: In this article, the enthalpies of formation measured using static bomb combustion calorimetry, the “vacuum sublimation” drop-calorimetric method, and the Knudsen-effusion method are reported for the first time for four azoles: 1-methylimidazole (1MeIMI), 1-methylpyrazole(1MePYR), 1-(1-benzyl pyrazole) (1BnPYR).
Journal ArticleDOI

A thermodynamic investigation of the cellulose allomorphs: Cellulose(am), cellulose Iβ(cr), cellulose II(cr), and cellulose III(cr)

TL;DR: In this paper, the thermodynamic properties of amorphous cellulose, cellulose I and cellulose II were studied by using oxygen bomb calorimetry, solution caloreimetry in which the solvent was cadoxen (a cadmium ethylenediamine solvent), and with a Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) in zero magnetic field to measure standard massic heat capacities Cp,w∘ over the temperature range T = 2 to 302.
