Abstract: The heat capacity of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol was measured over the temperature range 270 to 440Kby means of an automated adiabatic calorimeter. Asolid-solid and a solid-liquid phase transitions were found at (314.8 ± 0.1) Kand(403.3±0.1)K.The enthalpies and entropies of these transitions were determined to be (12.41±0.1) kJ·mol-1 and (39.4±0.3)JK-1·mol-1 for the solid -solid transition, and(4.44 ±0.1) kJ·mol-1 and (10.5±0.1)JK-1·mol-1 for the solid-liquid transition. Cp,m at 298.15Kis 183.18 JK-1mol-1.
