Enthalpy characteristics of dilute solutions of amides in acetonitrile

The enthalpy of mixing of formamide,N-methylformamide,N,N-dimethylformamide, and hexamethylphosphoric triamide with MeCN was measured in the 283–328 K range. The enthalpic coefficients of the binary and ternary interactions between the amide molecules are calculated within the framework of the McMillan-Mayer theory. The contributions to the enthalpy of dissolution due to cavity formation in the solvent (Δ_cav H ⁰) and due to solute-solvent interaction (Δ_int H ⁰) were determined. The enthalpies of specific and nonspecific solvation of amides in MeCN were calculated. The main contribution to the enthalpy of solvation of formamide andN-methylformamide is from specific interactions, while forN,N-dimethylformamide and hexamethylphosphoric triamide it is from nonspecific interactions. The values obtained are compared with those for solutions of the amides mentioned in water and methanol. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Heat Capacities of Aqueous Solutions of Acetone; 2,5-Hexanedione; Diethyl Ether; 1,2-Dimethoxyethane; Benzyl Alcohol; and Cyclohexanol at Temperatures to 523 K

The heat capacities of aqueous solutions of acetone, 2,5-hexanedione, diethyl ether, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, benzyl alcohol and cyclohexanol at concentrations of 0.1 to 1.0 mol⋅kg⁻¹ were determined at temperatures of 298.15, 423.15, 473.15 and 523.15 K and pressures up to 28 MPa. The measurements were performed at ambient conditions using the commercial Picker differential flow calorimeter and at high temperatures and pressures with a customized Picker type calorimeter constructed at the Blaise Pascal University, Clermont-Ferrand. Standard molar heat capacities were obtained by weighted extrapolation to the infinite dilution limit. The contributions of –CO–, –O– and –OH groups to the standard molar volume and standard molar heat capacity were determined from the newly determined and literature data. The variation of the three oxygen-containing group contributions with temperature and molecular structure is examined qualitatively.     

Enthalpies of mixing of water withN,N-disubstituted amides of aliphatic carboxylic acids

The enthalpies of mixing ofN,N-dialkylpropionamides with water were measured at 298.15 K. A comparative analysis of enthalpy effects (H ^E) of mixing of water withN,N-disubstituted amides of formic, acetic, and propionic acids was performed. It was established that theH ^E values depend on the length of theN,N-alkyl substituents and the size of acidic radicals. The size of the nonpolar group and the electron-donor ability of amide molecules primarily affect the enthalpy of mixing. The relative electron-donor abilities of the amides were estimated by the calorimetric method. The results obtained were discussed by invoking thermochemical data for aqueous solutions of hexamethylphosphoric triamide. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Enthalpy characteristics of dilute solutions of acetonitrile

The enthalpies of mixing of acetonitrile with formamide,N-methylformamide,N,N-dimethylformamide, and hexamethylphosphoric triamide were measured in the temperature interval from 283.15 to 328.15 K. The enthalpy coefficients of binary and ternary interactions were calculated by the methods of the McMillan-Mayer theory. The contributions to the enthalpy of solution due to the formation of a cavity in the solvent, Δ_cav H°, and those due to the interaction of the solute with the solvent, Δ_int H°, were determined. The enthalpies of the specific and non-specific solvation of acetonitrile in the corresponding amides were calculated. Specific interactions were found to contribute the most to the solvation enthalpy of acetonitrile. The obtained values were compared with analogous values for solutions of acetonitrile in water and alcohols. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Hydrophobic hydration and hydrophobic interaction in tetraalkylammonium salt solutions: The cation size effect

The heats of solution of tetrahexylammonium and tetraheptylammonium bromides in water and aqueous solutions of formamide and hexamethylphosphoric triamide have been measured at 318 and 338 K. The standard enthalpies and heat capacities of solution and the enthalpic and heart capacity parameters of amide-electrolyte pair interaction have been determined. It has been confirmed that the standard heat capacities of solution and the amide-electrolyte interaction parameters as a function of the cation size pass through an extremum. The hydrophobic hydration effect is weaker for large tetraalkylammonium cations.     

Heat Capacities and Thermodynamic Properties of Aqueous SrCl<Subscript>2</Subscript> Solutions in the Temperature Range from 80 to 320 K

The molar heat capacities of three different concentrations of aqueous SrCl₂ solutions, 0.1212, 0.4615 and 1.878 mol⋅kg⁻¹, were measured, using a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter in the temperature range from 80 to 320 K. Solid–liquid phase transitions were observed at 272.83, 270.18 and 255.15 K, respectively, for these three solutions. The molar enthalpies and entropies of the phase transitions were evaluated. The experimental heat capacity data were fitted to polynomial equations, and based on the polynomial equations and thermodynamic relationship, the thermodynamic functions relative to 298.15 K, [H _T −H _298.15 K] and [S _T −S _298.15 K], of the three solutions were derived in the range of 80 to 320 K with an interval of 5 K.     

Structure of water-glycine solutions in saturated and near-saturated regions according to compressibility data

Ultrasonic velocity and density values are measured for aqueous solutions containing 2.00 mol.%, 4.00 mol.%, and 5.00 mol.% glycine in a temperature range of 15–65°C, 5.50 mol.% glycine (20–65°C), and 6.00 mol.% glycine (25–65°C). Adiabatic compressibilities (κ_S) and molar adiabatic compressibilities (K_S) are calculated. The values of κ_S and K_S decrease monotonically with an increase in glycine concentrations up to saturation at all the temperatures. The temperature dependences of κ_S and κ_S have minima that are typical of water and aqueous solutions; the positions of the minima depend on the glycine concentration. The temperature coefficients of the molar compressibility, ∂K_S/∂T, change their signs from negative to positive at lower temperatures (by approximately 10 deg) than ∂κ_S/∂T.     

Preparation and characterization of anion-cation surfactants modified montmorillonite

The low-temperature molar heat capacities of CoPc and CoTMPP were measured by temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) over the temperature range from 223 to 413 K for the first time. No phase transition or thermal anomaly was observed in the experimental temperature range for CoPc. However, a structural change was found to be nonreversible for CoTMPP in the temperature range of 368–403 K, which was further validated by the results of IR and XRD. The molar enthalpy ΔH _m and entropy ΔS _m of phase transition of the CoTMPP were determined to be 3.301 kJ mol⁻¹ and 8.596 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters of CoPc and CoTMPP such as entropy and enthalpy relative to reference temperature 298.15 K were derived based on the above molar heat capacity data. Moreover, the thermal stability of these two compounds was further investigated through TG measurements. Three steps of mass loss were observed in the TG curve for CoPc and five steps for CoTMPP.     

Molar volumes of aqueous and ethylene glycol solutions of tetrahydrofuran

The densities of ethylene glycol solutions of tetrahydrofuran (THF) with 0–20 mol % THF were measured at 20–60°C and atmospheric pressure to an accuracy of 5 × 10⁻⁵ g/cm³. The apparent molar volumes of THF in the solutions were calculated and their concentration and temperature dependences determined. The results were compared with the apparent molar volumes of THF in aqueous systems calculated from the literature data. Minima were found on the concentration dependence of the apparent volume of THF for both aqueous and ethylene glycol solutions and changed differently as the temperature increased. The data obtained were discussed from the standpoint of solvophobic effects in aqueous and ethylene glycol solutions of THF.     

Heat capacity and heat content of BiNb<Subscript>5</Subscript>O<Subscript>14</Subscript>

The heat capacity and the heat content of bismuth niobate BiNb₅O₁₄ were measured by the relaxation time method, DSC and drop method, respectively. The temperature dependence of heat capacity in the form C _pm=455.84+0.06016T–7.7342·10⁶/T ² (J K^–1 mol^–1) was derived by the least squares method from the experimental data. Furthermore, the standard molar entropy at 298.15 K S _m=397.17 J K^–1 mol^–1 was derived from the low temperature heat capacity measurement.     

Study of heat of micellization and phase separation for Pluronic aqueous solutions by using a high sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry

Heat of micellization and phase separation temperature (known as cloud point) for the poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(propylene oxide)–poly(ethylene oxide) (abbreviated by PEO–PPO–PEO) triblock copolymers, the Pluronics F108, F98, F88, F68, F38, P65, and L62, in water are carefully determined by using a high sensitivity differential scanning calorimeter. It is interesting to find out that there exists a maximum heat of micellization for all these Pluronics. In this study, the heat of micellization of all of the Pluronics decreases as the temperature increases, as expected, at high temperature region (low Pluronic concentration region). However, the enthalpy change has a surprisingly positive relationship with temperature at low temperature region (high Pluronic concentration region). The critical micelle temperature consistently decreases as the Pluronic concentration increases. This unexpected behavior of the positive heat capacity changes of Pluronic aqueous solutions at higher concentration region is somewhat related to the variation of water accessible polar (PEO groups) and non-polar (PPO groups) surface areas in the micellization process. Especially, the removal of polar surface area from water may dominate the contribution to the positive heat capacity change upon micellization. In addition, the cloud points of Pluronic solutions are also discussed. The enthalpy–entropy compensation phenomenon for the micellization of Pluronics is discussed, and the enthalpy–entropy compensation temperature is calculated.     

Measurements of the Molar Heat Capacities and Excess Molar Heat Capacities for Water + Organic Solvents Mixtures at 288.15 K to 303.15 K and Atmospheric Pressure

Experimental molar heat capacity data (Cp _m) and excess molar heat capacity data (Cp^E_m\mathit{Cp}^{\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{m}}) of binary mixtures containing water + (formamide or N,N-dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide or N,N-dimethylacetamide or 1,4-dioxane) at several compositions, in the temperature range 288.15 K to 303.15 K and atmospheric pressure, have been determined using a modified 1455 PAAR solution calorimeter. The excess heat capacities are positive for aqueous solutions containing 1,4-dioxane, N,N-dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, negative for solutions containing water + formamide and show a sigmoid behavior for mixtures containing water + N,N-dimethylacetamide, over the whole composition range. The experimental excess molar heat capacities are discussed in terms of the influence of temperature and of the organic solvent type present in the binary aqueous mixtures, as well as in terms of the existing molecular interactions and the organic solvent’s molecular size and structure.     

Thermodynamic properties of the binary mixture of water and <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-butanol

The molar heat capacities of the binary mixture composed of water and n-butanol were measured with an adiabatic calorimeter in the temperature range 78–320 K. The functions of the heat capacity with respect to thermodynamic temperature were established. A glass transition, solid–solid phase transition and solid–liquid phase transition were observed. The corresponding enthalpy and entropy of the solid–liquid phase transition were calculated, respectively. The thermodynamic functions relative to a temperature of 298.15 K were derived based on the relationships of the thermodynamic functions and the function of the measured heat capacity with respect to temperature.     

Formation and stability of dispersed particles composed of vitamin K1, soybean oil and phosphatidylcholine

The purpose of this study was to develop an intravenous formulation composed of vitamin K₁ (VK) for the treatment of blood coagulation with warfarin-induced hypoprothrombinaemia. VK was dispersed using sonication with soybean phosphatidylcholine (PC) and the dispersion mechanism was evaluated by characterizing the dispersed particles with dynamic light scattering, fluorescence spectroscopy and surface monolayer techniques. VK has an appreciable solubility in PC bilayers (approximately 20 mol%). Within the VK molar fraction of 0.1–0.9, the size of the dispersed particles increased at room temperature within 3 months. By addition of soybean oil (SO) to VK (molar ratio of VK:SO=1:1), the solubility of the VK/SO mixtures in PC bilayers was decreased (approximately 5 mol%). The size of the aqueous dispersions at molar fractions of 0.1–0.7 was 50–70 nm and did not change for 3 months at room temperature. The solubility of the VK and VK/SO in PC bilayers is crucially important in the production of the stable aqueous dispersions of VK particles. Received: 1 August 2000 Accepted: 20 December 2000     

Electrical Conductivity Studies of Quinic Acid and its Sodium Salt in Aqueous Solutions

The electrical conductivities of aqueous solutions of quinic acid and its sodium salt were measured from 293.15 to 328.15 K in steps of 5 K. The molar conductivities of the sodium salt were treated by the Lee–Wheaton equation, in the form of Pethybridge and Taba, and the Kohlrausch equations. The limiting molar conductivities of the quinate anion were estimated, as well as the corresponding ionic association constants and standard thermodynamic functions of the ionic association reaction. The hydrodynamic radius of the quinate anion was calculated from the Walden rule and compared with the van der Waals radius. The dissociation constant of quinic acid was evaluated from the known value of the limiting molar conductivity of quinic acid using the conductivity equation of Pethybridge and Taba. The standard thermodynamic functions of the dissociation process, i.e., the Gibbs energy, enthalpy, entropy and heat capacity, were obtained using the non-empirical procedure given by Clarke and Glew. The standard thermodynamic functions of dissociation of quinic acid are discussed in terms of solute–solvent interactions and stabilization of the quinate anion due to hydrogen bonding of the α-hydroxyl group to the carboxyl group.     

Experimental Study of the Effect of Temperature,Pressure and Concentration on the Viscosity of Aqueous NaBr Solutions

The viscosity of 10 (0.049, 0.205, 0.464, 0.564, 0.820, 1.105, 1.496, 2.007, 2.382, and 2.961 mol ċ kg⁻¹) binary aqueous NaBr solutions has been measured with a capillary-flow technique. Measurements were made at pressures up to 40 MPa. The range of temperature was 288–595 K. The total uncertainty of viscosity, pressure, temperature and composition measurements were estimated to be less than 1.6%, 0.05%, 15 mK, and 0.02%, respectively. The effect of temperature, pressure, and concentration on viscosity of binary aqueous NaBr solutions were studied. The measured values of the viscosity of NaBr(aq) were compared with data, predictions and correlations reported in the literature. The temperature and pressure coefficients of viscosity of NaBr(aq) were studied as a function of concentration and temperature. The viscosity data have been interpreted in terms of the extended Jones–Dole equation for the relative viscosity (η/η₀) to calculate accurately the values of viscosity A- and B-coefficients as a function of temperature. The derived values of the viscosity A- and B-coefficients were compared with the results predicted by the Falkenhagen–Dole theory of electrolyte solutions and calculated with the ionic B-coefficient data. The physical meaning parameters V and E in the absolute rate theory of the viscosity and hydrodynamic molar volume V k were calculated using the present experimental viscosity data. The TTG model has been used to compare predicted values of the viscosity of NaBr(aq) solutions with experimental values at high pressures.

Using the thermodynamic relations, the temperature changes of reduced enthalpy, and also the change of entropy and reduced Gibbs energy of solution of l-proline in aqueous solutions of urea at the temperature rise from 288 to 318 K have been determined. Their comparison with the data for glycine and l-alanine has been carried out. It has been shown that the entropy–enthalpy compensation (Barclay–Butler rule) takes place for dissolution and transfer processes.

Adsorption of uranium ions by crosslinked polyester resin functionalized with acrylic acid from aqueous solutions

In this paper, the crosslinked polyester resin containing acrylic acid functional groups was used for the adsorption of uranium ions from aqueous solutions. For this purpose, the crosslinked polyester resin of unsaturated polyester in styrene monomer (Polipol 353, Poliya) and acrylic acid as weight percentage at 80 and 20%, respectively was synthesized by using methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEK_p, Butanox M60, Azo Nobel)-cobalt octoate initiator system. The adsorption of uranium ions on the sample (0.05 g copolymer and 5 mL of U(VI) solution were mixed) of the crosslinked polyester resin functionalized with acrylic acid was carried out in a batch reactor. The effects of adsorption parameters of the contact time, temperature, pH of solution and initial uranium(VI) concentration for U(VI) adsorption on the crosslinked polyester resin functionalized with acrylic acid were investigated. The adsorption data obtained from experimental results depending on the initial U(VI) concentration were analyzed by the Freundlich, Langmuir and Dubinin–Radushkevich (D–R) adsorption isotherms. The adsorption capacity and free energy change were determined by using D–R isotherm. The obtained experimental adsorption data depending on temperature were evaluated to calculate the thermodynamic parameters of enthalpy (ΔH°), entropy (ΔS°) and free energy change (ΔG°) for the U(VI) adsorption on the crosslinked polyester resin functionalized with acrylic acid from aqueous solutions. The obtained adsorption data depending on contact time were analyzed by using adsorption models such as the modified Freundlich, Elovich, pseudo-first order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models.
