Abstract

The five fundamental units of the genetic code: uracil (U), thymine (T), cytosine (C), adenine (A) and guanine (G) are known for extremely low vapor pressure and low thermal stability at elevated temperatures. Therefore, application of conventional techniques for the determination of sublimation enthalpies and vapor pressures fails to provide accurate results. Recently, a Fast Scanning Calorimetry method (FSC) for vapor pressure determination was developed for investigation of extremely low volatile, as well as for thermally unstable molecular and ionic molecules. This success has encouraged application of the FSC method for determination of vapor pressures and sublimation enthalpies of the five nucleobases, where available literature data are in disarray. The thermodynamic data of the nucleobases available in the literature were collected, evaluated, and combined with our experimental results to reconcile available experimental data. The set of evaluated thermochemical data on the five nucleobases was recommended as the benchmark properties for these thermally labile compounds.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
