✦ Synopsis


The role of the polyiiiorphic transforiliation was investigated by X-Ray diffraction in the habit inodificatioii process of terephthalic acid reported earlier (GAINES, MYERSON). Contrary to the expectations it was found that only one of the two polyrnorphs described in the literature (BAILEY, BROWN) was present. Using a n interatomic function derived (DERISSEN, SMIT) to approximate the crystallographic properties of this class of organic acids, we calculated the lattice energies of the two proposed polyrnorphs of terephthalic wid. These were found to be 41.02 and 39.99 kcal/mole for the polymorphs I and 11, respectively. The heat of transition calculated (1.03 kcal/mole) is small enough to be overcome by an increase of the enthropy term and the polymorphic transition is realizable.

Mit Hilfe von Riintgenstrahlen wurde die Rolle untersucht, die die polymorphe Uiii- wantllung in dein fruher beschriebenen Prozel.3 (GAINES, MYERSON) der Alterung von Terephthalsiirirekristallen spielte. Entgegen den Erwartungen konnte festgestellt werden, daI3 nur eine der beiden Formen, die in der Literatur beschrieben worden sind (BAILEY, BROWN), zu finden war. Uin die therrnodynarriische Stabilitat zu beurteilen, wurden tlereri Gittereriergien niit Hilfe einer Atom-Atom-Funktion berechnet, die fur diese Klasse von organischen Sauren publiziert wurde (DERISSEN, SMIT). Die Gitterenergien waren 41,02 iind 39,99 kcal/rnole, was eine Umwandlungswarme von 1,03 kcal/mole ergab, kleiti genug, so dal3 die Uniwandlung erfolgen kann, wenn die Temperatur geniigend hoch ist.
