Heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of three 1-benzyl-4-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles in the temperature range of (0 – Tm) K

In this paper, we present the results of comprehensive thermodynamic study of some functionally substituted triazoles such as 1-benzyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole, 1-benzyl-4-(m-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole and 1-benzyl-4-(4‑tert-butylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole. The temperature dependences of heat capacities of 1-benzyl-4-(m-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole and 1-benzyl-4-(4‑tert-butylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole were measured in a wide temperature range of ∼(5 – 370) K using the adiabatic calorimetry. Those of 1-benzyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole were determined at the range of ∼(5 – 80) K, supplementing the previous measurements at the more elevated temperatures. The melting parameters and thermal stability (melting temperature, enthalpy of fusion, temperature of thermal destruction) of the compounds were determined using the differential scanning calorimetry. Also, the standard thermodynamic functions (absolute entropies, reduced enthalpies and Gibbs energies) were calculated in the temperature range of (0 – T_m) K.
