Abstract
We report the results obtained from the experimental determination and theoretical calculation of the diperoxide formaldehyde molecule. Experimental work was performed using a microcalorimeter to get the combustion heat and sublimation enthalpy was determined measuring the equilibrium vapor pressure in equilibrium with with the vapor phase at different temperatures through the Clapeyron-Claussius equation. Theoretical calculations were made resorting to the semiempirical AM1 procedure as well as via RHF and DFT B3LYP methods at the 3-21 G, 3-21+G, 6-311 G(d,p) and 6-311 +G(d,p) basis set levels.
