An experimental study has been made of various thermodynamic properties of 3-methylthiophene in the solid, liquid and vapor states (12 to 473/sup 0/K). The entropy of the liquid at 298.16/sup 0/K, 52.18 +- 0.10 cal. deg./sup -1/ mole/sup -1/, was computed from measured values of the heat capacity of the solid and liquid and the heat of fusion (2518 cal. mole/sup -1/ at the triple point, 204.19 +- 0.05/sup 0/K). Experimental results obtained for the heat capacity of the liquid (C/sub satd/), the heat of vaporization (..delta..H/sub v/), the heat capacity in the ideal gaseous state (C/sup 0//sub p/), and the second virial coefficient (B = (PV - RT)/P) are represented by the empirical equations: (1) C/sub satd/(liq.) = 46.074 - 0.17610T + 6.8006 x 10/sup -4/T/sup 2/ - 6.8021 x 10/sup -7/T/sup 2/, cal. deg./sup -1/ mole/sup -1/ (207 to 337/sup 0/K); (2) ..delta..H/sub v/ = 13,593 - 13.913 T, cal. mole/sup -1/ (329 to 389/sup 0/K); (3) C/sup 0//sub p/ = -1.375 + 9.4508 x 10/sup -2/ T - 4.2587 x 10/sup -5/ T/sup 2/, cal. deg./sup -1/ mole/sup -1/ (375 to 473/sup 0/K); and (4) B = 75 - 94.56 exp (1000/T), cc. mole/sup -1/ (329 to 473/sup 0/K). From determinations of the heat of combustion, the standard heat of formation (..delta..H/sub 1//sup 0/ (liq.)) of 3-methylthiophene from graphite, hydrogen and rhombic sulfur was found to be 10.49 +- 0.20 kcal. mole/sup -1/ at 298.16/sup 0/K. Calorimetric, spectroscopic and molecular structure data were used to compute the functions (F/sup 0/ - H/sub 0//sup 0/)/T, (H/sup 0/ -H/sub 0//sup 0/)/T,H/sup 0/ - H/sub 0//sup 0/, S/sup 0/ and C/sup 0//sub p/ at selected temperatures from 0 to 1000/sup 0/K. The height of the potential barrier to internal rotation (ca. 600 cal. mole/sup -1/) required for these calculations was evaluated from the experimental entropy and vapor heat capacity data. Values of ..delta..H/sub 1//sup 0/, ..delta..F/sub 1//sup 0/, and log/sub 10/K/sub 1/, for the formation of 3-methylthiophene in the ideal gaseous state from graphite, hydrogen and gaseous diatomic sulfur, were computed from the thermodynamic functions and appropriate calorimetric data.
