Interactions of Some Amino Acids with Aqueous N,N-Dimethylacetamide Solutions at 298.15 and 308.15 K: A Volumetric Approach

The apparent molar volumes, V _φ , of glycine, L-alanine and L-serine were obtained in aqueous 0 to ∼4 mol⋅kg⁻¹ N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solutions from density measurements at 298.15 and 308.15 K. The standard partial molar volume, V _φ ^o, and standard partial molar volumes of transfer, Δ_tr V _φ ^o, were determined for these amino acids. It has been shown that hydrophilic-hydrophilic interactions between charged groups of the amino acids and the —CON= group of DMA are predominant in the case of glycine and L-serine, but for L-alanine the interactions between its side group (—CH₃) and DMA are predominant. An increase in temperature increases the standard partial molar volumes but decreases the transfer volumes of the amino acids. The results have been interpreted in terms of cosphere overlap model.     

Volumetric Properties of Amino Acids in Aqueous N-methylacetamide Solutions at 298.15 K

The apparent molar volumes (V _φ ) of glycine, L-alanine and L-serine in aqueous 0 to 4 mol⋅kg⁻¹ N-methylacetamide (NMA) solutions have been obtained by density measurement at 298.15 K. The standard partial molar volumes (V_f⁰)V_{\phi}^{0}) and standard partial molar volumes of transfer (D_trV_f⁰)\Delta_{\mathrm{tr}}V_{\phi}^{0}) have been determined for these amino acids. It has been show that hydrophilic-hydrophilic interactions between the charged groups of the amino acids and the –CONH– group of NMA predominate for glycine and L-serine, but for L-alanine the interactions between its side group (–CH₃) and NMA predominate. The –CH₃ group of L-alanine has much more influence on the value of D_trV_f⁰\Delta_{\mathrm{tr}}V_{\phi}^{0} than that of the –OH group of L-serine. The results have been interpreted in terms of a co-sphere overlap model.     

Solute–Solvent Interactions of Amino Acids in Aqueous 1-Propyl-3-Methylimidazolium Bromide Ionic Liquid Solutions at 298.15 K

Densities, viscosities, and refractive indices of three amino acids (glycine, L-alanine, and L-valine) in aqueous solutions of an ionic liquid, 1-propyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, have been measured at 298.15 K. These data have been used to calculate apparent molar volumes (V _φ ), viscosity B-coefficients, and molar refractions of these mixtures. The standard partial molar volumes (V_f⁰V_{\phi}^{0}) and standard partial molar volumes of transfer (D_trV_f⁰\Delta_{\mathrm{tr}}V_{\phi}^{0}) have been determined for these amino acid solutions from these density data. The resulting values of V_f⁰V_{\phi}^{0} and D_trV_f⁰\Delta_{\mathrm{tr}}V_{\phi}^{0} for transfer of amino acids from water to aqueous ionic liquid solutions have been interpreted in terms of solute + solvent interactions. These data also indicate that hydrophobic interactions predominate in L-alanine and L-valine solutions. Linear correlations were found for both V_f⁰V_{\phi}^{0} and the viscosity B-coefficient with the number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain of the amino acids, and have been used to estimate the contribution of the charged end groups (NH₃⁺\mathrm{NH}_{3}^{+}, COO⁻), the CH₂ group, and other alkyl chains of the amino acids. The viscosity and molar refractivity results have been used to confirm the conclusions obtained from volumetric properties.     

Thermodynamics of the Interaction of a Homologous Series of Amino Acids with Sorbitol

The apparent molar volumes V _2,φ , apparent molar isentropic compressibilities K _S,2,φ , and enthalpies of dilution of aqueous glycine, alanine, α-amino butyric acid, valine, and leucine have been determined in aqueous 1.0 and 2.0 mol⋅dm⁻³ sorbitol solutions at 298.15 K. These data have been used to calculate the infinite dilution standard partial molar volumes V_2,m⁰V_{2,m}^{0}, partial molar isentropic compressibilities K_S,2,m⁰K_{S,2,m}^{0}, and enthalpies of dilution Δ_dil H ⁰ of the amino acids in aqueous sorbitol, along with the standard partial molar quantities of transfer of the amino acids from water to aqueous sorbitol. The linear correlation of V_2,m⁰V_{2,m}^{0} for this homologous series of amino acids has been utilized to calculate the contribution to V₂⁰V_{2}^{0} of the charged end groups (NH₃⁺\mathrm{NH}_{3}^{+}, COO⁻), the CH₂ group, and other alkyl chains of the amino acids. The results for the standard partial molar volumes of transfer, compressibilites and enthalpies of dilution from water to aqueous sorbitol solutions have been correlated and interpreted in terms of ion–polar, ion–hydrophobic, and hydrophobic–hydrophobic group interactions. A comparison of these thermodynamic properties of transfer suggest that an enhancement of the hydrophilic/polar group interactions is operating in ternary systems of amino acid, sorbitol, and water.     

Interactions of Some Amino Acids with Aqueous Tetraethylammonium Bromide at 298.15 K: A Volumetric Approach

The apparent molar volumes, V_,2, of glycine, L-alanine, DL--amino-n-butyric acid, L-valine, and L-leucine have been determined in aqueous 0.25, 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5 mol-dm^–3 tetraethylammonium bromide (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, for the amino acids in aqueous tetraethylammonium bromide and the standard partial molar volumes of transfer (_tr V_2,m) of the amino acids from water to the aqueous salt solutions. The linear correlation of V_2,m for a homologous series of amino acids has been utilized to calculate the contribution of the charged end groups (NH₃⁺, COO^–), CH₂ group, and other alkyl chains of the amino acids to V_2,m. The results of the standard partial molar volumes of transfer from water to aqueous tetraethylammonium bromide have been interpreted in terms of ion–ion, ion–polar, and hydrophobic–hydrophobic group interactions. The volume of transfer data suggest that ion–ion or ion–hydrophilic interactions are predominant in the case of glycine and alanine, and hydrophobic–hydrophobic group interactions are predominant in the case of DL--amino butyric acid, L-valine, and L-leucine.     

Volumetric studies of some electrolytes in water and in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate solutions at different temperatures

Abstract  

The apparent molar volumes (φ _v) of KCl, KNO₃, MgCl₂, and Mg(NO₃)₂ have been determined in water and in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate solutions from density measurements at 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, 318.15, and 323.15 K. The limiting apparent molar volumes (j_v⁰ \varphi_{v}^{0} ) and experimental slopes (S _v) were derived from the Masson equation. The partial molar volume transfer (\Updelta [`(V)]<sub>\texttr</sub> ) (\Updelta {\bar{V}}_{\text{tr}} ) of the electrolytes were obtained from limiting apparent molar volume data from water to aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate solutions and have been interpreted in terms of ion–ion, hydrophilic–hydrophilic, and hydrophobic–hydrophobic interactions on the basis of a co-sphere overlap model. It is shown that the transfer volumes (\Updelta [`(V)]_\texttr ) (\Updelta {\bar{V}}_{\text{tr}} ) are positive and increase with increasing sodium dodecylsulfate concentration for all electrolytes. The structure making or breaking capacities of the electrolytes have been inferred from the sign of [∂² φ _v⁰/∂T ²]_p, i.e., the second derivative of the limiting apparent molar volume with respect to temperature at constant pressure. In water, KCl and KNO₃ exhibit structure breaking and MgCl₂ and Mg(NO₃)₂ exhibit structure making behavior. All the studied electrolytes were found to act as structure makers in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate solutions.     

Densities, Specific Heat Capacities, Apparent and Partial Molar Volumes and Heat Capacities of Glycine in?Aqueous Solutions of Formamide, Acetamide, and?N,N-Dimethylacetamide at T=298.15?K and?Ambient Pressure

Apparent molar volumes (V _2,φ ) and heat capacities (C _p2,φ ) of glycine in known concentrations (1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, and 8.0 mol⋅kg⁻¹) of aqueous formamide (FM), acetamide (AM), and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solutions at T=298.15 K have been calculated from relative density and specific heat capacity measurements. These measurements were completed using a vibrating-tube flow densimeter and a Picker flow microcalorimeter, respectively. The concentration dependences of the apparent molar data have been used to calculate standard partial molar properties. The latter values have been combined with previously published standard partial molar volumes and heat capacities for glycine in water to calculate volumes and heat capacities associated with the transfer of glycine from water to the investigated aqueous amide solutions, D[`(V)]<sub>2,tr</sub><sup>o</sup>\Delta\overline{V}_{\mathrm{2,tr}}^{\mathrm{o}} and D[`(C)]_p2,tr^o\Delta\overline{C}_{p\mathrm{2,tr}}^{\mathrm{o}} respectively. Calculated values for D[`(V)]<sub>2,tr</sub><sup>o</sup>\Delta\overline{V}_{\mathrm{2,tr}}^{\mathrm{o}} and D[`(C)]_p2,tr^o\Delta\overline{C}_{p\mathrm{2,tr}}^{\mathrm{o}} are positive for all investigated concentrations of aqueous FM and AM solutions. However, values for D[`(C)]_p2,tr^o\Delta\overline{C}_{p\mathrm{2,tr}}^{\mathrm{o}} associated with aqueous DMA solutions are found to be negative. The reported transfer properties increase with increasing co-solute (amide) concentration. This observation is discussed in terms of solute + co-solute interactions. The transfer properties have also been used to estimate interaction coefficients.     

Partial Molar Volumes of Transfer of Some Amino Acids from Water to Aqueous Glycerol Solutions at 25°C

Apparent molar volumes of glycine, DL--alanine, L-valine, L-leucine, and L-phenylalanine in 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.5, and 5.0 m _B (mol-kg^–1) aqueous solutions of glycerol have been obtained from solution densities at 25°C using precise vibrating-tube digital densimeter. The estimated partial molar volumes at infinite dilution V ^o ₂ have been used to obtain the corresponding transfer volumes _tr V ₂ ^o from water to different glycerol–water mixtures. The transfer volumes are positive for glycine and DL--alanine, and both positive and negative for the other amino acids over the concentration range studied. Interaction coefficients have been obtained from McMillan–Mayer approach and the data have been interpreted in terms of solute–cosolute interactions.     

Solution Properties of Ternary D-Glucose + 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Ethyl Sulfate + Water Solutions at 298.15 K

The effect of an ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate ([EMIm]ESO₄), on the thermophysical properties of aqueous D-glucose solutions including density, viscosity, and electrical conductivity have been investigated at 298.15 K. Using these properties, the apparent molar volumes, V _φ , the viscosity B-coefficients and the molar conductivities, Λ _m, have been computed for the ternary D-glucose + [EMIm]ESO₄+water solutions. The V _φ values were used to calculate the standard partial molar volumes, V_f⁰V_{\phi}^{0}, and transfer volumes, D_trV_f⁰\Delta_{\mathrm{tr}}V_{\phi}^{0}, of D-glucose from water to aqueous ionic liquid solutions. These volumetric parameters, for all the solutions studied, are positive and increase monotonically with increasing the concentration of [EMIm]ESO₄. These observations have been interpreted in terms of the interactions between D-glucose and ionic liquid in the aqueous solution. The viscosity data were analyzed in terms of the Jones-Dole equation to determine the values of the viscosity B-coefficients. The calculated conductometric parameters, the limiting molar conductivities, Λ ₀, the association constants, K _a, and the Walden products, Λ ₀ η, for [EMIm]ESO₄, decrease with increasing concentration of D-glucose. This trend suggests that the ions of an ionic liquid do not have the same hydrodynamic size in the presence of D-glucose molecules (ILs) and consequently provides evidence for the dehydration effect of the ionic liquid in aqueous D-glucose solutions.
