Cohen Thermochemical Kinetics Research, 6507 SE 31st Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97202-8627 Received January 17, 1996; revised manuscript received September 4, 1996 A program has been undertaken for the evaluation and revision of group additivity values (GAVs) necessary for predicting, by means of Benson's group additivity method, thermochemical properties of organic molecules. This review reports on the portion of that program dealing with GAVs for enthalpies of formation at 298.15 K (hereinafter abbreviated as 298 K) for carbon-hydrogen and carbon-hydrogen-oxygen compounds. A complete database of experimental data for gas, liquid, and crystal (solid) phase en thalpies of formation is presented. The GAV s, ring strain corrections, and non-nearest neighbor interactions derived from the database are presented in tabular form, together with a description of their evaluation and comments on reliability, uncertainties, and missing or questionable data. © 1996 American Institute of Physics and American rhp.mirni Sndp.ty.

In 1958, Benson and Buss lO discussed a compilations, so that now one is often hard-pressed to deter hierarchy of additivity schemes, and established a conceptual mine to what extent a particular compilation is dependent on framework that provided a physical justification for the nonexperimental values. This issue gains in importance approachY In this hierarchy, atomic additivity is the first when one tries to develop empirical methods for predicting level of approximation; the second and third are bond addi thermochemical properties, as in the group additivity tivity and group additivity, respectively. Atomic additivity method; if all the Rossini and SWS values are thrown into (i.e., a particular molecular property can be evaluated as the the hopper, one in effect is fitting to already fitted values. sum of contributions from the constituent atoms) is valid for 4 Cox and Pilcher began a program to establish the experi such simple properties as molecular weights, but certainly mental database anew, and to clarify the question of what not for thermochemical properties.
