Abstract

The enthalpy of formation of methanethial- S, S -dioxide (CH 2 SO 2 ) has been determined by the use of isodesmic and nonisodesmic reactions, with individual enthalpies calculated by employing density functional methods and the CBS-QB3 model chemistry. After assessing the possible errors in the methodology, it was concluded that this value can be expressed as Δ f H ° 298 (CH 2 SO 2 ) = −144.7 ± 8.4 kJ/mol.
