Entropy-enthalpy compensation: fact or artifact?

The phenomenon of entropy-enthalpy (S-H) compensation is widely invoked as an explanatory principle in thermodynamic analyses of proteins, ligands, and nucleic acids. It has been suggested that this compensation is an intrinsic property of either complex, fluctuating, or aqueous systems. The questions examined here are whether the observed compensation is extra-thermodynamic (i.e., reflects any...

Universal fractional noncubic power law for density of metallic glasses.

As a fundamental property of a material, density is controlled by the interatomic distances and the packing of microscopic constituents. The most prominent atomistic feature in a metallic glass (MG) that can be measured is its principal diffraction peak position (q1) observable by x-ray, electron, or neutron diffraction, which is closely associated with the average interatomic distance in the f...

Entropy–enthalpy compensation as deduced from measurements of temperature dependence

The concept of entropy–enthalpy compensation has exercised a peculiar fascination for biochemists since it was first proposed.[1, 2] The idea is that if a particular rate constant or equation constant is measured for a series of sample of the same enzyme from different sources, the variations in enthalpies of activation or of reaction will largely cancelled out by variations in the correspondin...
