Abstract
Abstract2-Methoxycyclohexanol is synthesized through an alcoholysis reaction of cyclohexene oxide and methanol with Ag2CsPW12O40 as catalyst. The elemental analyzer, FT-IR, GC, and NMR are used to analyze and confirm elements, functional groups, purity, and molecular structure of 2-methoxycyclohexanol. The equation between the specific heat capacity (Cp) and the temperature from 280 to 340 K is fitted by the results of differential scanning calorimeter to examine 2-methoxycyclohexanol. Bomb calorimeter is introduced to determine the standard enthalpy change of combustion of 2-methoxycyclohexanol (− 3938.6 ± 2.0 kJ mol−1). The standard enthalpy of formation has been calculated as − 816.88 ± 2.21 kJ mol−1, based on Hess’s law. These basic thermodynamic parameters are deemed to facilitate the exploitation of new production route of 2-methoxycyclohexanol.
