H-bonding studies in normal and sterically hindered alcohols

Measurements have been carried out on volumetric, dielectric and thermodynamic behaviour of various normal and sterically hindered alcohols, cholesterol and polyethylene glycol. It is found that chemical association model (TK model) satisfactorily explains the results of heat capacity data in complex systems such as sterically hindered alkanols as well as cholesterol or polyethylene glycol
