Abstract: | Enthalpies of solution in water H

and enthalpies of sublimation H

were determined for a number of crystalline derivatives of uracil: 1,6-dimethyluracil (m

Ura), 1,3,6-trimethyluracil (m

1,3,6

Ura), 6-propyl-1,3-dimethyluracil (pr6m

1,3
Ura). Standard enthalpies of hydration H

and standard enthalpies of interaction H

of the solutes with their hydration shells were calculated. The data obtained show that dependence of H

on the number of-CH2- groups of n-alkyl chain added upon substitution of diketopyrimidine ring is nonlinear. This finding is discussed in connection with results of X-ray diffraction structure determinations for the crystalline compounds. |
