Standard molar enthalpies,volumes, and heat capacities of adamantane in cyclohexane,n-hexane,and carbon tetrachloride. Interpretation using the scaled-particle theory

The volumes, heat capacities, and enthalpies of solution of adamantane in cycloxane,n-hexane, and carbon tetrachloride have been measured as a function of concentration at 25°C (15, 25, and 35°C for the volumes). The results extrapolated to infinite dilution have been resolved into cavity formation and interaction terms. The former have been calculated from the equations of the scaled-particle theory. To estimate the contribution from the latter, we have assumed some proportionality between adamantane-solvent and cyclohexane-solvent interactions. This assumption has been verified with the three different solvents for the three studied thermodynamic functions. The diameter of adamantane in solution has been determined to be 6.36 Å.     

Solution thermodynamics for alkoxy phenols in alcohol and in water-alcohol systems

Solubilities have been measured for m-alkoxyphenols in water-alcohol mixtures. The alcohols ranged from the co-solvent methanol to the co-solute 1-octanol, and each alcohol was present at the saturating concentration of 1-octanol in water viz. 0.00316M. Plots of sobubility vs. carbon number of the alcohols show discontinuities. Enthalpies of solution in these same solvent systems have also been measured. The enthalpies of solution and the derived enthalpies of transfer both support the observations on solubilities. The results are discussed on the basis of solvent-solute interactions and in terms of solute volumes.     

The cavity models and the curvature dependence of the surface tension. Spherical cavities in anisotropic solvents

In the present work the solution process of globular solutes (xenon, cyclohexane, cyclooctane and adamantane) in n-alkane solvents is analyzed. New experimental data on solution enthalpies of adamantane in those solvents are presented. The cavity model previously proposed is corrected with respect to the dependence of the surface tension on the curvature radius of the microscopic cavity and a new equation is proposed to describe this dependence.     

Benchmarking thermochemical experiments and calculations of nitrogen-containing substituted adamantanes

Standard molar enthalpy of formation of 2-cyano-adamantane was obtained by using high-precision combustion calorimetry. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation of 2-cyano-adamantane and 2,2-dinitro-adamantane at 298.15 K were derived from the vapor pressure temperature dependences measured by transpiration. The molar enthalpies of fusion of these compounds were measured with the help of differential scanning calorimetry. Thermochemical data on functional substituted adamantanes containing nitrogen in the substituents were collected and evaluated. The gas-phase enthalpies of formation were calculated with the high-level quantum-chemical method G4 and compared with the experimental results. The consistent data set of the benchmark quality was suggested for practical thermochemical calculations. Geminal destabilizing effects for the interactions of nitro- and cyano-substituents placed in the second position on the adamantane cage were derived. Structure–property correlations for substituted adamantanes and aliphatic substituted alkanes were found and suggested for the assessment of the gas-phase enthalpies of formation of adamantane derivatives.

     

Interactions of Some Amino Acids with Aqueous Osmoprotectant Proline at 298.15 K: Volumetric and Calorimetric Studies

Apparent molar volumes of a homologous series of amino acids in aqueous proline solutions have been obtained from densities at 298.15 K, measured with a vibrating-tube digital densimeter. These data have been used to deduce the partial molar volumes of transfer from water to aqueous proline solutions; these partial molar volumes of transfer are found to be positive for glycine, alanine, α-amino-n-butyric acid and valine, whereas they are negative for leucine. The number of water molecules hydrated to the amino acids was estimated from the partial molar volume data. In order to supplement this information, enthalpies of transfer of aqueous amino acids from water to 0.1, 2.25 and 1 mol⋅dm⁻³ aqueous proline have been determined at 298.15 K using a VP-ITC titration calorimeter. The data on the partial molar volumes and enthalpies of transfer are discussed in terms of various interactions operating in the ternary mixtures of amino acids, water and proline.

The apparent molar volumes, V _{ø, 2}, of gly-leu, gly-gly-leu and the partial specific volume ν^° of hen-egg-white lysozyme have been determined in aqueous of TEAB solutions by density measurements at 298.15 K. These data have been used to calculate the infinite dilution apparent molar volumes V _2,m ^o for the peptides in aqueous TEAB solutions and the standard partial molar volumes of transfer Δ_tr V _2,m ^o of the peptides from water to aqueous TEAB solutions. The results on Δ_tr V _2,m ^o of peptides from water to aqueous TEAB solutions have been interpreted in terms of ion-ion, ion-polar, hydrophilic-hydrophilic and hydrophobic-hydrophobic group interactions. In order to supplement this information, enthalpies of transfer of aqueous peptides from water to TEAB solution have been determined at 298.15 K using a VP-ITC titration calorimeter. The data on partial molar volumes and enthalpies of transfer have been discussed in light of various interactions operating in the ternary system of peptides, water and TEAB. The partial specific volume of transfer of lysozyme from water to aqueous TEAB solutions also indicates the predominance of hydrophobic interactions.     

Excess volumes and excess enthalpies of cyclohexanone with alkanes,benzene, toluene and tetrachloromethane at 298.15 K

Excess volumes and excess enthalpies have been measured for binary liquid mixtures of cyclohexanone with n-hexane, n-heptane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, benzene toluene and tetrachloromethane at 298.15 K. The results have been discussed in terms of the difference in molecular shape and specific interactions between unlike molecules. The Prigogine—Patterson—Flory equation of state theory has been used to evaluate the free volume and interactional contributions of the excess properties, and to predict excess volumes and excess enthalpies. The calculated values of V^E and H^E are in qualitative agreement with the experimental data in all the systems.     

Hydrogen bond formation to cyclic and acyclic polyethers

Equilibrium constants and enthalpies of hydrogen-bond formation of mcresol to various cyclic (crown) and acyclic polyethers have been determined in benzene solvent. Equilibrium constants indicated no evidence for an operative macrocyclic effect; the relationship between the increasing size of the equilibrium constant and the number of ether oxygens was rationalized with a simple statistical thermodynamic model. Enthalpies of interactions ranged between –19 and –23 kJ-mol^–1. In agreement with PCILO calculations, enthalpies of interaction were essentially independent of the number of oxygen atoms in the ether; no significant difference in enthalpies of interaction between cyclic and acyclic ethers was found.

Enthalpies of Dilution of D-p-Hydroxyphenylglycine in Buffer Solutions at Different pH

The effect of pH on the dilution enthalpies of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine in phosphate buffer solutions has been investigated by isothermal titration microcalorimetry at 298.15 K. The corresponding homogeneous enthalpic interaction coefficients have been calculated according to the excess enthalpy concept. The results show that the enthalpies of dilution of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine in phosphate buffer solutions at different pH are all positive. The overall trend is that enthalpies of dilution become more positive with an increase of pH, but there is a minimum of the enthalpy of dilution at pH = 7.0. The enthalpic pair interaction coefficients, h ₂, all have negative values. The results are interpreted from the point of view of solute-solute and solute-solvent interactions involved in the solvent effects.
