Abstract:

The solubility and heat of solution of oxygen in n-decane and tetrakis dimethylamino - ethylene TMAE were measured and found to be almost equal. The spectrally measurable interaction species, TMAE-02 and n-C10H22-02, are shown to have very low enthalpy of formation -1.2 and -0.4 kcal.. Thus, in nonpolar media the good electron donor TMAE and poor electron donor n-decane react similarly with oxygen.
