Abstract
The heat capacity of thallium(I) butanoate has been determined by adia batic calorimetry from temperatures T of 5 K to 350 K and by different ial-scanning calorimetry (d.s.c.) from 320 K to 480 K. A transition at T = (154.2+/-0.5) K, two very closely spaced crystalline-phase transi tions at T = 285.3(6) K and 289.8(6) K as well as a crystal I-to-isotr opic liquid transition at T = 456.7 K have been studied repeatedly by adiabatic calorimetry and/or d.s.c. The standard molar entropies of th e several transitions are IV-to-III, 1.278.R; III-to-II, 1.235.R; II-t o-I, 0.624.R, and I-to-isotropic 1, 2.02.R, respectively. Unlike highe r members in this series, no mesomorphic phase occurs between crystall ine phase I and the isotropic liquid phase.
