Ai. Gubareva et al., THERMOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ZIRCONIUM(IV) TETRAKISDIPIVALOYLMETHANATE, Russian journal of applied chemistry, 66(4), 1994, pp. 752-759
Zirconium(IV) tetrakisdipivaloylmethanate [Zr(C11H19O2)4] has been stu
died by the thermochemical method. The heat of combustion, the standar
d enthalpy of formation in the solid and gaseous states, the dependenc
e of vapor pressure on temperature, and the sublimation enthalpy have
been obtained for the first time. In addition, the metal-oxygen bond e
nergy has been calculated.
