| {{Main|Benson group increment theory}}
| |
| Starting with simple linear and branched [[alkane]]s and [[alkene]]s the method works by collecting a large number of experimental heat of formation data (see: [[Standard enthalpy change of formation (data table)|Heat of Formation table]]) and then divide each molecule up into distinct groups each consisting of a central atom with multiple ligands:
| |
| | |
| : X-(A)i(B)j(C)k(D)l
| |
| | |
| To each group is then assigned an empirical incremental value which is independent on its position inside the molecule and independent of the nature of its neighbors:
| |
| | |
| * P primary C-(C)(H)3 '''-10.00'''
| |
| * S secondary C-(C)2(H)2 '''-5.00'''
| |
| * T tertiary C-(C)3(H) '''-2.40'''
| |
| * Q quaternary C-(C)4 '''-0.10'''
| |
| * [[Gauche (stereochemistry)|gauche]] correction '''+0.80'''
| |
| * 1,5 [[pentane interference]] correction '''+1.60 '''
| |
| : in kcal/mol and 298 K
| |
| | |
| The following example illustrates how these values can be derived.
| |
| | |
| The experimental heat of formation of [[ethane]] is -20.03 kcal/mol and ethane consists of 2 P groups. Likewise [[propane]] (-25.02 kcal/mol) can be written as 2P+S, [[isobutane]] (-32.07) as 3P+T and [[neopentane]] (-40.18 kcal/mol) as 4P+Q. These four equations and 4 unknowns work out to estimations for P (-10.01 kcal/mol), S (-4.99 kcal/mol), T (-2.03 kcal/mol) and Q (-0.12 kcal/mol). Of course the accuracy will increase when the dataset increases.
| |
| | |
| the data allow the calculation of heat of formation for isomers. For example the pentanes:
| |
| * n-pentane = 2P + 3S = -35 (exp. -35 kcal/mol)
| |
| * isopentane = 3P + S + T + 1 gauche correction = -36.6 (exp. -36.7 kcal/mol)
| |
| * neopentane = 4P + Q = 40.1 (exp. 40.1 kcal/mol)
| |
| | |
| The group additivities for alkenes are:
| |
| * Cd-(H2) '''+6.27'''
| |
| * Cd-(C)(D) '''+8.55'''
| |
| * Cd-(C)2 '''+10.19'''
| |
| * Cd-(Cd)(H) '''+6.78'''
| |
| * Cd-(Cd)(C) '''+8.76'''
| |
| * C-(Cd)(H)3 '''-10.00'''
| |
| * C-(Cd)(C)(H)2 '''-4.80'''
| |
| * C-(Cd)(C)2(H) '''-1.67'''
| |
| * C-(Cd)(C)3 '''+1.77'''
| |
| * C-(Cd)2(H)2 '''-4.30'''
| |
| * [[cis isomer|cis]] correction '''+1.10'''
| |
| * alkene gauche correction '''+0.80'''
| |
| | |
| In alkenes the cis isomer is always less stable than the trans isomer by 1.10 kcal/mol.
| |
| | |
| More group additivity tables exist for a wide range of functional groups.

| ==Gronert model==
| |
| An alternative model has been developed by S. Gronert based not on breaking molecules into fragments but based on 1,2 and 1,3 interactions <ref>''An Alternative Interpretation of the C-H Bond Strengths of Alkanes'' Scott Gronert [[J. Org. Chem.]]; '''2006'''; 71(3) pp 1209 - 1219; [http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jo052363t Abstract]</ref><ref>''An Alternative Interpretation of the C-H Bond Strengths of Alkanes'' Scott Gronert [[J. Org. Chem.]]; '''2006'''; 71(25) pp 9560 - 9560; (Addition/Correction) {{DOI|10.1021/jo062078p}}.</ref>
| |
| | |
| The Gronert equation reads:
| |
| <math>\ \Delta H_f = -146.0*n_{C-C} -124.2*n_{C-H} - 66.2*n_{C=C} + 10.2*n_{C-C-C}
| |
| + 9.3*n_{C-C-H} + 6.6*n_{H-C-H} + f(C,H)</math>
| |
| | |
| <math>\ f(C,H) = (231.3*n_{C} + 52.1*n_{H})</math>
| |
| | |
| The pentanes are now calculated as:
| |
| * n-pentane = 4CC + 12CH + 9HCH + 18HCC + 3CCC + (5C + 12H) = - 35.1 kcal/mol
| |
| * isopentane = 4CC + 12CH + 10HCH + 16HCC + 4CCC + (5C + 12H) = - 36.7 kcal/mol
| |
| * neopentane = 4CC + 12CH + 12HCH + 12HCC + 6CCC + (5C + 12H) = -40.1 kcal/mol
| |
| | |
| Key in this treatment is the introduction of 1,3-repulsive and destabilizing interactions and this type of [[steric hindrance]] should exist considering the [[molecular geometry]] of simple alkanes. In [[methane]] the distance between the hydrogen atoms is 1.8 [[angstrom]] but the combined [[Van der Waals radius|van der Waals radii]] of hydrogen are 2.4 angstrom implying steric hindrance. Also in propane the methyl to methyl distance is 2.5 angstrom whereas the combined van der Waals radii are much larger (4 angstrom).
| |
| | |
| In the Gronert model these repulsive 1,3 interactions account for trends in [[bond dissociation energy|bond dissociation energies]] which for example decrease going from methane to ethane to isopropane to neopentane. In this model the [[homolysis (chemistry)|homolysis]] of a C-H bond releases [[strain energy]] in the alkane. In traditional bonding models the driving force is the ability of alkyl groups to donate electrons to the newly formed [[free radical]] carbon.
