Crystalline aromatic C-nitroso compounds are white when dimeric and green when monomeric. In this note we report the enthalpies of combustion and sublimation of 4-diethylaminonitrosobenzene and show the thermochemical results to be consistent with this green compound being monomeric in the solid state. A commercial sample ŽTCI America Chemical Company. was recrystallized five times from hexane and then sublimed in ¨ acuo. The elemental analysis results were in agreement with the corresponding calculated values. The experimentally determined mass fractions for C 10 H 14 N2 O were: C, 0.6745; H, 0.0785; N, 0.1569; and the calculated values were: C, 0.6739; H, 0.0792; N, 0.1572. The mean value for the ratio of the mass of carbon dioxide produced by the sample rrŽg . cmy3 . s 1.404 in the combustion experiments to that calculated from its mass was Ž1.0000 " 0.0004.. The bomb calorimeter has been described elsewhere.Ž1,2.

The energy for electrical ignition, combustion of the cotton fuse, and the corrections for nitric acid formation were determined as previously described.Ž1,2.

From comparison with other aromatic nitroso dimers, it seems reasonable to assume the enthalpy of sublimation of the hypothetical dimer of 4-Et 2 NC 6 H 4 NO to be less than 130 kJ . moly1 .

it becomes apparent that the dimerization of 4-Et 2 NC 6 H 4 NO in the solid state would be endothermic so that the thermochemical results are consistent with this compound being monomeric in the crystalline state and, therefore, green. ao Cientıfica e Tecnologica, Thanks are due to Junta Nacional de Investigac¸˜ ´ ´ JNICT, for financial support through Centro de Investigac¸˜ ao em Quımica da ´ Universidade do Porto ŽLinha 5. and for the research project PRAXIS XXI Žproject 2r2.1rQUIr54r94..
