Critical micelle concentrations (cmc's) were measured at several temperatures in the range 8-32-degrees-C for previously unknown 2-n-C14H29-[2.2.1], cryptand 1, in the presence of 1 equiv of either Na+ or Ca2+. Thermodynamic parameters for micelle formation by the complexes were assessed by using the cmc dependence on temperature, DELTA-H-degrees(mic), which was found to be 3.5 kJ/mol (0.84 kcal/mol) for Na+.1, (cmc at 26-degrees-C = 0.092 mM), and 8.4 kJ/mol (2.0 kcal/mol) for Ca2+.2 (cmc at 26-degrees-C = 0.583 mM). DELTA-S-degrees(mic) was 0.09 kJ/mol K for both complexes. The overall micellization process is entropy driven (large T-DELTA-S-degrees) while the major difference between the two complexes is of enthalpic origin. These results are compared to the ones observed for the K+ and Ba2+ complexes of known 2-n-C14H29-[2.2.2]cryptand. These observations help quantitate the problem of micellar surface charge.
