Abstract

One of the techniques for theoretically determining enthalpies of formation of organic compounds is the method of homodesmic reactions. In this work, a graph theory interpretation of acyclic chemical compounds was presented, and an algorithm for constructing a basis of homodesmic reactions was developed, which makes it possible to use a homodesmic approach to calculating the enthalpy of formation. Using the developed algorithm was exemplified by building the basis of homodesmic reactions for the butyramide molecule.
