Solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions of 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol

The solubilities of carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions of 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol (AEPD) were measured at 313.15, 323.15, and 333.15 K over the partial pressure range of carbon dioxide from 1 to 3000 kPa. The concentrations of aqueous AEPD solutions were 10 and 30 mass%. The solubilities of carbon dioxide in aqueous 10 mass% AEPD solutions at 313.15 K and 30 mass% at 333.15 K were compared with those in aqueous solutions of various amines such as monoethanolamine (MEA), 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMPD), 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), and N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA).     

Measuring solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous blends of N-methyldiethanolamine and 2-((2-aminoethyl)amino)ethanol at low CO2 loadings and modelling by electrolyte SAFT-HR EoS

In this work, new solubility values for CO₂ absorption in aqueous solutions of N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) in the presence of different mole ratios of 2-((2-aminoethyl)amino)ethanol (AEEA) at low pressures are obtained. The total molar amine concentration of all the solutions has been fixed equal to 3.360 mol · L⁻¹ (5.370 mol amine · kg⁻¹ water). The mole ratio of AEEA/MDEA was set to 0.12500, 0.10000 and 0.05000. The experimental total pressure varied from (7.3 to 386.6) kPa and the experimental temperature was set to (313.15, 328.15, 343.15 and 358.15) K. The electrolyte SAFT-HR (eSAFT-HR) equation of state (EoS) (Najafloo et al., 2014) has been successfully applied to model the solubility of CO₂ in aqueous mixtures of AEEA and MDEA. The overall average absolute relative per cent deviation (AAD%) in calculating the total pressure as a function of CO₂ loading is 7.74 for (AEEA + MDEA + CO₂ + H₂O) quaternary system at the four values of temperature. To verify the predictive ability of the model, the eSAFT-HR EoS was extrapolated to the Zoghi and Feyzi (2013) solubility results of the same quaternary system that were obtained at higher pressures or higher CO₂ loadings at the same temperatures. The AAD of the present model is 11.39% lower.     

Protonation thermodynamics of some aminophenol derivatives in NaCl(aq) (0 ⩽ I ⩽3 mol · kg−1) at T = 298.15 K

The acid–base properties of four aminophenol derivatives, namely m-aminophenol (L1), 4-amino-2-hydroxytoluene (L2), 2-amino-5-ethylphenol (L3) and 5-amino-4-chloro-o-cresol (L4), are studied by potentiometric and titration calorimetric measurements in NaCl_(aq) (0 ? I ? 3 mol · kg^?1) at T = 298.15 K. The dependence of the protonation constants on ionic strength is modelled by the Debye–Hückel, SIT (Specific ion Interaction Theory) and Pitzer equations. Therefore, the values of protonation constants at infinite dilution and the relative interaction coefficients are calculated. The dependence of protonation enthalpies on ionic strength is also determined. Distribution (2-methyl-1-propanol/aqueous solution) measurements allowed us to determine the Setschenow coefficients and the activity coefficients of neutral species. Experimental results show that these compounds behave in a very similar way, and common class parameters are reported, in particular for the dependence on ionic strength of both protonation constants and protonation enthalpies.     

Thermodynamic studies on complexation of divalent transition metal ions with some zwitterionic buffers for biochemical and physiological research

The interaction between the zwitterionic buffers (3-[N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-2-hydroxy propane sulfonic acid, N-(2-actamido)-2-aminoethane sulfonic acid, and 3-[(1,1-dimethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-2-hydroxy propane sulfonic acid) with some divalent transition metal ions (Cu^II, Ni^II, Co^II, Zn^II, and Mn^II) were studied at different temperatures (298.15 to 328.15) K at ionic strength I = 0.1 mol · dm⁻³ NaNO₃ and in the presence of 10%, 30%, and 50% (w/w) dioxene by using potentiometry. The thermodynamic stability constants were calculated as well as the free energy change for the 1:1 binary complexation. The protonation constants of the zwitterionic buffers were also determined potentiometrically under the above conditions.     

Simultaneous determination of enthalpies of dilution and dissociation of protocatechuic acid in aqueous salt solutions by calorimetric measurements

Protocatechuic acid, a major metabolite of antioxidant polyphenols found in green tea, has been shown to prevent carcinogenesis or antitumor growth in vitro and in vivo studies. The dilution enthalpies Δ_dilH_m, dissociation enthalpies Δ_disH_m and thermodynamic dissociation constants K_a for protocatechuic acid in aqueous NaCl or KCl solutions were simultaneously determined by mixing-flow microcalorimetry at T = 298.15 K. In order to verify the reliability of the fitted dissociation parameters, the values of dissociation enthalpies and thermodynamic dissociation constants were also determined by isothermal titration calorimetry and electrical conductivity methods. The K_a values obtained through the proposed method agree well with those reported in literatures and obtained by other techniques. Enthalpic interaction coefficients (h₂, h₃ and h₄) were computed according to the McMillan–Mayer model. The trends of h₂ and Δ_disH_m for protocatechuic acid with increasing salt molality in both the salt solutions were obtained. The different influence of KCl and NaCl on the values of h₂ and Δ_disH_m were discussed in terms of (solute + solute) and (solute + solvent) interactions. The results showed that it is possible to perform in a single calorimetric experiment the simultaneous determination of dilution enthalpies, dissociation enthalpies and constants in a given solvent.     

Determination of stoichiometric dissociation constants of lactic acid in aqueous salt solutions at 291.15 and at 298.15 K

Equations were determined for the calculation of the stoichiometric (molality scale) dissociation constant, K_m, of lactic acid in aqueous salt solutions at 291.15 and 298.15 K from the thermodynamic dissociation constant, K_a, of this acid and from the ionic strength, I_m, of the solution. The salt alone determines mostly the ionic strength of the solutions considered in this study, and the equations for K_m were based on the single-ion activity coefficient equations of the Hückel type. New data measured by potentiometric titrations in a glass electrode cell at 298.15 K and the literature data obtained by Larsson and Adell with quinhydrone (qh) electrode cells at 291.15 K were used in the estimation of the parameters for the Hückel equations (HE) of lactate ions in NaCl and KCl solutions. The Harned cell data measured at 298.15 K by Nims and Smith were used to obtain the activity parameters for lactate ions in dilute LiCl, BaCl₂ and SrCl₂ solutions. The conductance data measured at 298.15 K by Martin and Tartar were used to determine the thermodynamic value of the dissociation constant of lactic acid. By means of the calculation method suggested in this study, K_m can be obtained almost within experimental error at least up to I_m of about 0.5 mol kg⁻¹ for lactic acid in NaCl and KCl solutions at the two temperatures considered. The K_m values obtained by this method were compared to those obtained by the calculation methods presented recently in the literature for a general treatment of thermodynamics of weak acids in NaCl and KCl solutions.     

Equilibrium solubility of carbon dioxide in a 30 wt.% aqueous solution of 2-((2-aminoethyl)amino)ethanol at pressures between atmospheric and 4400 kPa: An experimental and modelling study

New experimental equilibrium data were obtained for the solubility of carbon dioxide in an aqueous solution with 30 wt.% of 2-((2-aminoethyl)amino)ethanol (AEEA) at temperatures ranging from (313.2 to 368.2) K and CO₂ partial pressures ranging from above atmospheric to 4400 kPa. A thermodynamic model based on the Deshmukh–Mather method was applied to correlate and predict the CO₂ solubility in aqueous AEEA solutions. The binary interaction parameters and equilibrium constants for the proposed reactions were determined by data regression. Using the adjusted parameters, equilibrium partial pressures of CO₂ were calculated and compared with the corresponding experimental values at the selected temperatures and pressures. Values of carbon dioxide solubility at other temperatures reported in the literature were also calculated. The average absolute deviation for all of the data points was found to be 8.2%. The enthalpy change of the absorption of CO₂ in the 30 wt.% aqueous solution of AEEA was also estimated with our model.     

Density,viscosity, and N2O solubility of aqueous amino acid salt and amine amino acid salt solutions

Physicochemical properties of aqueous amino acid salt (AAS), potassium salt of sarcosine (KSAR) and aqueous amine amino acid salt (AAAS), 3-(methylamino)propylamine/sarcosine (SARMAPA) have been studied. Densities of KSAR were measured for sarcosine mole fraction 0.02 to 0.25 for temperature range 298.15 K to 353.15 K, the viscosities were measured for 0.02 to 0.10 mole fraction sarcosine (293.15 K to 343.15 K) while the N₂O solubilities were measured from 0.02 to 0.10 mole fraction sarcosine solutions (298.15 K to 363.15 K). Densities of SARMAPA were measured for sarcosine mole fraction 0.02 to 0.23 for temperature range (298.15 K to 353.15 K), viscosities were measured for 0.02 to 0.16 mole fraction sarcosine (293.15 K to 343.15 K) while the N₂O solubilities were measured from 0.02 to 0.16 mole fraction sarcosine solutions (298.15 K to 343.15 K). Experimental results were correlated well with empirical correlations and N₂O solubility results for KSAR were predicted adequately by a Schumpe model. The solubilities of N₂O in AAS and AAAS are significantly lower than values for amines. The solubilities vary as: amine > AAAS > AAS.     

Gas solubility of H2S in aqueous solutions of N-methyldiethanolamine and diethanolamine with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol at 313, 343, and 393 K in the range 2.5–1036 kPa

The gas solubility of hydrogen sulfide in aqueous solutions of 32.5 wt.% N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and 12.5 wt.% diethanolamine with 4, 6, and 10 wt.% 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, at 313.15, 343.15, and 393.15 K, has been measured, using a volumetric method for the analysis of the liquid phase, over a range of pressure from 2.5 to 1036 kPa. The experimental results of the gas solubility are given as the partial pressure of H₂S against its mole ratio α (mol H₂S/mol total alkanolamine) and mole fraction of H₂S at each temperature studied. Enthalpies of solution of H₂S have been derived from the pressure-temperature concentration data. Experimental solubility data obtained in our laboratory for H₂S and CO₂ are compared, and it is possible to establish that the aqueous solutions of MDEA, DEA, and AMP studied in this work are highly selective towards H₂S under the same conditions of pressure and temperature.     

The thermodynamic properties of DyBr3(s) and DyI3(s) from T=5 K to their melting temperatures

Low-temperature calorimetric measurements have been performed on DyBr₃(s) in the temperature range (5.5 to 420 K ) and on DyI₃(s) from T=4 K to T=420 K. The data reveal enhanced heat capacities below T=10 K, consisting of a magnetic and an electronic contribution. From the experimental data on DyBr₃(s) a C⁰_p,m (298.15 K) of (102.2±0.2) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹ and a value for {S⁰_m (298.15 K) − S⁰_m (5.5 K)} of (205.5±0.5) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹, have been obtained. For DyI₃(s), {S⁰_m (298.15 K) − S⁰_m (4 K)} and C⁰_p,m (298.15 K) have been determined as (226.9±0.5) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹ and (103.4±0.2) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹, respectively. The values for {S⁰_m (5.5 K) − S⁰_m (0)} for DyBr₃(s) and {S⁰_m (4 K) − S⁰_m (0)} for DyI₃(s) have been calculated, giving S⁰_m (298.15 K)=(212.3±0.9) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹ in case of DyBr₃(s) and S⁰_m (298.15 K) =(233.1±0.7) J·K⁻¹·mol⁻¹ for DyI₃(s). The high-temperature enthalpy increment has been measured for DyBr₃(s) in the temperature range (525 to 799 K) and for DyI₃(s) in the temperature range (525 to 627 K). From the results obtained and enthalpies of formation from the literature, thermodynamic functions for DyBr₃(s) and DyI₃(s) have been calculated from T→0 to their melting temperatures at 1151.0 K and 1251.5 K, respectively.     

Density and activity of pertechnetic acid aqueous solutions at T = 298.15 K

The previous isopiestic investigations of HTcO₄ aqueous solutions at T = 298.15 K are believed to be unreliable, because of the formation of a ternary mixture at high molality. Consequently, published isopiestic molalities for aqueous HTcO₄ solutions at T = 298.15 K were completed and corrected. Binary data (variation of the osmotic coefficient and activity coefficient of the electrolyte in solution in the water) at T = 298.15 K for pertechnetic acid HTcO₄ were determined by direct water activity measurements. These measurements extend from molality m = 1.4 mol · kg⁻¹ to m = 8.32 mol · kg⁻¹. The variation of the osmotic coefficient of this acid in water is represented mathematically. Density variations at T = 298.15 K are also established and used to express the activity coefficient values on both the molar and molal concentration scale. The density law leads to the partial molar volume variations for aqueous HTcO₄ solutions at T = 298.15 K, which are compared with published data.     

Apparent molar volumes and compressibilities of tetrabutyl-ammonium bromide in organic solvents

The densities of tetra-n-butylammonium bromide in 1-propanol, 1-butanol, acetone at (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K and sound velocities at 298.15 K have been measured. From these data apparent molar volumes V_Φ at (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K and the apparent molar isenotropic compressibility K_S,Φ, at T = 298.15 K of tetrabutylammonium bromide in nonaqueous solvents have been determined. The apparent molar volumes and the apparent molar isenotropic compressibilities were fitted to the Redlich, Rosenfeld, and Mayer equation as well as to the Pitzer equation yielding infinite dilution data, which were compared to the similar quantities for tetrabutylphosphonium bromide. Moreover, the acoustical parameters such as intermolecular free length (L_f), relative association (R_A), Rao’s molar sound function (R_m), and salvation number (S_n) were calculated using the experimental data of density and sound velocity at T = 298.15 K for ammonium and phosphonium bromides. The obtained data suggest the penetration of the acetone molecule within the intraionic free space of the tetrabutyl-ammonium and phosphonium cations.     

Protonation equilibria studies of the standard α-amino acids in NaNO3 solutions in water and in mixtures of water and dioxane

The protonation equilibria for 20 standard α-amino acids in solutions have been studied pH-potentiometrically. The dissociation constants (pK_a) of 20 amino acids and the thermodynamic functions (ΔG^∘, ΔH^∘, ΔS^∘, and δ) for the successive and overall protonation processes of amino acids have been derived at different temperatures in water and in three different mixtures of water and dioxane (mole fractions of dioxane were 0.083, 0.174, and 0.33). Titrations were also carried out in water ionic strengths of (0.15, 0.20, and 0.25) mol · dm⁻³ NaNO₃, and the resulting dissociation constants are reported. A detailed thermodynamic analysis of the effects of organic solvent (dioxane), temperature and ionic strength influencing the protonation processes of amino acids is presented and discussed to determine the factors which control these processes.     

Solubility and dissolution enthalpy of xanthine

At a constant ionic strength corresponding to human urine (I_c =  0.300 mol · dm ^− 3), the solubilities of xanthine were measured as a function of  − lg{c (H ⁺ ) / c^o} (c^o =  1 mol · dm ^− 3) at the temperatures T =  298.15 K and T =  310.15 K, respectively. Highly reproducible solubility and dissociation constants were obtained. Also, for the first time, the dissolution enthalpy of xanthine was determined calorimetrically. The values of this quantity obtained from both calorimetric determination and temperature dependence of solubility equilibrium constants are thermodynamically consistent.     

Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of Rb 2SO4 (aq) and Cs 2SO 4(aq) at T = (298.15 and 323.15) K,and representation with an extended ion-interaction (Pitzer) model

Isopiestic vapor-pressure measurements were made for Rb ₂SO ₄(aq) from molalitym =  (0.16886 to 1.5679 )mol · kg ^− 1atT =  298.15 K and from m =  (0.32902 to 1.2282 )mol · kg ^− 1at T =  323.15 K, and for Cs ₂SO₄ (aq) from m =  (0.11213 to 3.10815 )mol · kg ^− 1at T =  298.15 K and fromm =  (0.11872 to 3.5095 )mol · kg ^− 1atT =  323.15 K, with NaCl(aq) as the reference standard. Published thermodynamic information for these systems were reviewed and the isopiestic equilibrium molalities and dilution enthalpies were critically assessed and recalculated in a consistent manner. Values of the four parameters of an extended version of Pitzer`s model for osmotic and activity coefficients with an ionic-strength dependent third virial coefficient were evaluated for both systems at both temperatures, as were those of the usual three-parameter Pitzer model. Similarly, parameters of Pitzer`s model for the relative apparent molar enthalpies of dilution were evaluated at T =  298.15 K for both Rb ₂SO ₄(aq) and Cs ₂SO ₄(aq) for the more restricted range of m⩽ 0.101 mol · kg ^− 1. Values of the thermodynamic solubility product K_s(Rb₂ SO ₄, cr, 298.15 K )  =  (0.1392  ±  0.0154) and the CODATA compatible standard molar Gibbs free energy of formationΔ_fG_m^o (Rb ₂SO ₄, cr, 298.15 K )  =  − (1316.91  ±  0.59)kJ · mol ^− 1, standard molar enthalpy of formationΔ_fH_m^o (Rb ₂SO ₄, cr, 298.15 K )  =  − (1435.07  ±  0.60)kJ · mol ^− 1, and standard molar entropy S _m^o(Rb₂ SO ₄, cr, 298.15 K )  =  (199.60  ±  2.88)J · K ^− 1· mol ^− 1were derived. A sample of one of the lots of Rb ₂SO ₄(s) used for part of our isopiestic measurements was analyzed by ion chromatography, and was found to be contaminated with potassium and cesium in amounts that significantly exceeded the claims of the supplier. In contrast, analysis by ion chromatography of a lot of Cs ₂SO ₄(s) used for some of our experiments showed it was highly pure.     

Combined experimental and computational thermochemistry of isomers of chloronitroanilines

The standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation, at T = 298.15 K, of 4-chloro-3-nitroaniline and 5-chloro-2-nitroaniline, in the condensed phase, were derived from their standard molar energies of combustion, in oxygen, to yield CO₂(g), N₂(g), and HCl · 600H₂O(l), measured by rotating bomb combustion calorimetry. From the temperature dependence of the vapour pressures of these compounds, measured by the Knudsen effusion technique, their standard molar enthalpies of sublimation, at T = 298.15 K, were derived by means of the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. The Calvet microcalorimetry was also used to measure the standard molar enthalpies of sublimation of these compounds, at T = 298.15 K. The combination of the standard molar enthalpies of formation in the condensed phases and the standard molar enthalpies of sublimation yielded the standard molar enthalpies of formation in the gaseous phase at T = 298.15 K for each isomer. Further, the standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies, entropies and Gibbs free energies of sublimation, at T = 298.15 K, were also derived.The standard molar enthalpies of formation, in the gaseous phase of all the chloronitroaniline isomers were also estimated by the Cox scheme and by the use of computational thermochemistry and compared with the available experimental values.     

Experimental thermochemical study of the enthalpies of formation and sublimation of isonicotinamide,picolinamide, nicotinamide,isonicotinamideN-oxide,and nicotinamideN-oxide. The dissociation enthalpies of the N–O bonds

The standard (p ^∘  =  0.1MPa) molar enthalpies of combustion in oxygen, at T =  298.15 K, for crystalline picolinamide (2-NH₂COPy), nicotinamide (3-NH₂COPy), isonicotinamide (4-NH₂COPy), nicotinamide N -oxide (3- NH₂COPyNO), and isonicotinamide N - oxide (4-NH₂COPyNO) were measured by static-bomb calorimetry. These values were used to derive the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the crystalline compounds. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation, at T =  298.15 K, for the three pyridinecarboxamide isomers were measured by microcalorimetry and the standard molar enthalpies of sublimation for the two pyridinecarboxamide N -oxide compounds were measured by a mass-loss effusion technique. From the enthalpies of formation of the gaseous compounds, the molar dissociation enthalpies D_m^oof the (N ⁺ – O ⁻ ) covalent bonds were derived. Comparison has been made with D_m^o(N–O) values in pyridine N -oxide derivatives.

The heat capacity of Ir(C₅H₇O₂)₃ has been measured by the adiabatic method within the temperature range (5 to 305) K. The thermodynamic functions (entropy, enthalpy, and reduced Gibbs free energy) at 298.15 K have been calculated using the obtained experimental heat capacity data. A connection has been found between the entropy and the volume of the elementary crystalline cell for β-acetylacetonates of some metals. The reasons for this interdependence are discussed. The values of entropies at T = 298.15 K have been calculated for all the metal acetylacetonates on which there are structural data.     

Effect of the temperature on the physical properties of pure 1-propyl 3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide and characterization of its binary mixtures with alcohols

In this paper, physical properties of a high purity sample of the ionic liquid 1-propyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [PMim][NTf₂], and its binary mixtures with methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol were measured at atmospheric pressure. The temperature dependence of density, refractive index and speed of sound (293.15 to 343.15) K and dynamic viscosity (298.15 to 343.15) K were studied at atmospheric pressure by conventional techniques for the pure ionic liquid. For its mixtures with alcohols, density, speed of sound, and refractive index were measured at T = 298.15 K over the whole composition range. The thermal expansion coefficient of the [PMim][NTf₂] was calculated from the experimental results using an empirical equation, and values of the excess molar volume, excess refractive index, and excess molar isentropic compressibility for the binary systems at the above mentioned temperature, were calculated and fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation. The heat capacity of the pure ionic liquid at T = 298.15 K was determined using DSC.     

Kinetic study of nucleophilic reactivity of heterocyclic amines with 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan in acetonitrile

The reaction kinetics of 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan with five heterocyclic amines was investigated spectrophotometrically (UV–Vis) in acetonitrile at 20 °C. It was observed that the rate constants of these reactions increased as follows: 2-aminopyrimidine > 2-aminothiazole > 2-aminobenzothiazole > 5-amino-3,4-dimethylisoxazole > 2-amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole. Further, second-order rate constants (k₁) pertaining to the C–N and C–C bond forming step of these complexation processes fit to the three parameter equation log k (20 °C) = s_N (N + E), allowing the determination of the nucleophilicity parameters (N) of the five heterocyclic amines. The heterocyclic amines were subsequently ranked on the comprehensive nucleophilicity scale defined by Mayr et al. (2003), providing a direct comparison of n-, π-, and σ-nucleophiles.
