Abstract
The mean values of the standard massic energy of combustion of caffeine in phase I (or alpha) and in phase II (or beta) measured by
static-bomb combustion calorimetry in oxygen, at T = 298.15 K, are Dcu (C8H10O2N4, I) = (21823.27 ± 0.68) J Æ g1 and Dcu
(C8H10O2N4, II) = (21799.96 ± 1.08) J Æ g1, respectively.
The standard (p = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpy of formation in condensed phase for each form was derived from the corresponding
standard molar enthalpies of combustion as, Df H m ðC8 H10 O2 N4 ; cr; IÞ ¼ ð340:6 2:3Þ kJ mol1 and Df H m ðC8 H10 O2 N4 ; cr; IIÞ
¼ ð345:1 2:3Þ kJ mol1 .
The difference between the standard enthalpy of formation of the two polymorphs in condensed phase was also evaluated by using
reaction-solution calorimetry. The obtained result, 2.04 ± 0.25 kJ Æ mol1, is in agreement, within the uncertainty, with the difference
between the molar enthalpies of formation obtained from combustion experiments (4.5 ± 3.2) kJ Æ mol1, which can be considered as
an internal test for consistency of the results.
A value for the standard enthalpy of formation of caffeine in the gaseous state was proposed: Df H m ðC8 H10 O2 N4 ; gÞ ¼
ð229:7 6:1Þ kJ mol1 , estimated from the values of the standard enthalpies of formation of both crystalline forms obtained in this
work, and the data on standard enthalpies of sublimation collected from the literature.
