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).

Standard values of Gibbs free energy, entropy, and enthalpy of Na₂Ti₆O₁₃ and Na₂Ti₃O₇ were determined by evaluating emf-measurements of thermodynamically defined solid state electrochemical cells based on a Na–β″-alumina electrolyte. The central part of the anodic half cell consisted of Na₂CO₃, while two appropriate coexisting phases of the ternary system Na–Ti–O are used as cathodic materials. The cell was placed in an atmosphere containing CO₂ and O₂. By combining the results of emf-measurements in the temperature range of 573⩽T/K⩽1023 and of adiabatic calorimetric measurements of the heat capacities in the low-temperature region 15⩽T/K⩽300, the thermodynamic data were determined for a wide temperature range of 15⩽T/K⩽1100.

Measurements were made at molalities m = (0.02 to 6.0) mol · kg⁻¹ for urea, at m = (0.01 to 1.6) mol · kg⁻¹ for 1,1-dimethylurea, and at m = (0.01 to 8.0) mol · kg⁻¹ for N,N′-dimethylurea. Experimental temperatures ranged from (278.15 to 318.15) K for both urea and 1,1-dimethylurea, and from (278.15 to 348.15) K for N,N′-dimethylurea. All measurements were conducted at the pressure p = 0.35 MPa. Density measurements obtained with a vibrating-tube densimeter were used to calculate V_ϕ values.

Thermodynamics of the oxidation–reduction reaction {2 glutathionered(aq) + NADPox(aq)=glutathioneox(aq) + NADPred(aq)}

Microcalorimetry, spectrophotometry, and high-performance liquid chromatography (h.p.l.c.) have been used to conduct a thermodynamic investigation of the glutathione reductase catalyzed reaction {2 glutathione_red(aq) + NADP_ox(aq)=glutathione_ox(aq) + NADP_red(aq)}. The reaction involves the breaking of a disulfide bond and is of particular importance because of the role glutathione_red plays in the repair of enzymes. The measured values of the apparent equilibrium constant K^′ for this reaction ranged from 0.5 to 69 and were measured over a range of temperature (288.15 K to 303.15 K), pH (6.58 to 8.68), and ionic strength I_m (0.091 mol · kg⁻¹ to 0.90 mol · kg⁻¹). The results of the equilibrium and calorimetric measurements were analyzed in terms of a chemical equilibrium model that accounts for the multiplicity of ionic states of the reactants and products. These calculations led to values of thermodynamic quantities at T=298.15 K and I_m=0 for a chemical reference reaction that involves specific ionic forms. Thus, for the reaction {2 glutathione_red⁻(aq) + NADP_ox³⁻(aq)=glutathione_ox²⁻(aq) + NADP_red⁴⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)}, the equilibrium constant K=(6.5±4.4)·10⁻¹¹, the standard molar enthalpy of reaction Δ_rH^o_m=(6.9±3.0) kJ · mol⁻¹, the standard molar Gibbs free energy change Δ_rG^o_m=(58.1±1.7) kJ · mol⁻¹, and the standard molar entropy change Δ_rS^o_m=−(172±12) J · K⁻¹ · mol⁻¹. Under approximately physiological conditions (T=311.15 K, pH=7.0, and I_m=0.25 mol · kg⁻¹ the apparent equilibrium constant K^′≈0.013. The results of the several studies of this reaction from the literature have also been examined and analyzed using the chemical equilibrium model. It was found that much of the literature is in agreement with the results of this study. Use of our results together with a value from the literature for the standard electromotive force E^o for the NADP redox reaction leads to E^o=0.166 V (T=298.15 K and I=0) for the glutathione redox reaction {glutathione_ox²⁻(aq) + 2 H⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻=2 glutathione_red⁻(aq)}. The thermodynamic results obtained in this study also permit the calculation of the standard apparent electromotive force E^′o for the biochemical redox reaction {glutathione_ox(aq) + 2 e⁻=2 glutathione_red(aq)} over a wide range of temperature, pH, and ionic strength. At T=298.15 K, I=0.25 mol · kg⁻¹, and pH=7.0, the calculated value of E^′o is −0.265 V.     

The role of water in the thermodynamics of drug binding to cyclodextrin

The thermodynamic parameters, Δ_BG^∘, Δ_BH^∘, Δ_BS^∘, and Δ_BC_p, of the drugs flurbiprofen (FLP), nabumetone (NAB), and naproxen (NPX) binding to β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and to γ-cyclodextrin (γCD) in 0.10 M sodium phosphate buffer were determined from isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurements over the temperature range from 293.15 K to 313.15 K. The heat capacity changes for the binding reactions ranged from −(362 ± 48) J · mol⁻¹ · K⁻¹ for FLP and −(238 ± 90) J · mol⁻¹ · K⁻¹ for NAB binding in the βCD cavity to 0 for FLP and −(25.1 ± 9.2) J · mol⁻¹ · K⁻¹ for NPX binding in the larger γCD cavity, implying that the structure of water is reorganized in the βCD binding reactions but not reorganized in the γCD binding reactions. Comparison of the fluorescence enhancements of FLP and NAB upon transferring from the aqueous buffer to isopropanol with the maximum fluorescence enhancements observed for their βCD binding reactions indicated that some localized water was retained in the FLP–βCD complex and almost none in the NAB–βCD complex. No fluorescence change occurs with drug binding in the larger γCD cavity, indicating the retention of the bulk water environment in the drug–γCD complex. Since the specific drug binding interactions are essentially the same for βCD and γCD, these differences in the retention of bulk water may account for the enthalpically driven nature of the βCD binding reactions and the entropically driven nature of the γCD binding reactions.     

Buffer standards for the physiological pH of N-[2-hydroxy-1,1-bis(hydroxymethyl)ethyl]glycine (TRICINE) from T = (278.15 to 328.15) K

The pH values of two buffer solutions without NaCl and seven buffer solutions with added NaCl, having ionic strengths (I = 0.16 mol · kg⁻¹) similar to those of physiological fluids, have been evaluated at 12 temperatures from T = (278.15 to 328.15) K by way of the extended form of the Debye–Hückel equation of the Bates–Guggenheim convention. The residual liquid junction potentials (δE_j) between the buffer solutions of TRICINE and saturated KCl solution of the calomel electrode at T = (298.15 and 310.15) K have been estimated by measurement with a flowing junction cell. For the buffer solutions with the molality of TRICINE(m₁) = 0.06 mol · kg⁻¹, NaTRICINE(m₂) = 0.02 mol · kg⁻¹, and NaCl(m₃) = 0.14 mol · kg⁻¹, the pH values at T = 310.15 K obtained from the extended Debye–Hückel equation and the inclusion of the liquid junction correction are 7.342 and 7.342, respectively. These are in excellent agreement. The zwitterionic buffer TRICINE is recommended as a secondary pH standard in the region for clinical application.     

The standard molar enthalpy of sublimation ofη5-bis-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iron measured with an electrically calibrated vacuum-drop sublimation microcalorimetric apparatus

A heat-flow Calvet microcalorimeter was adapted for the measurement of sublimation enthalpies by the vacuum-drop method, with samples of masses in the range 1 mg to 5 mg. The electrically calibrated apparatus was tested by determining the enthalpies of sublimation of benzoic acid and ferrocene, at T =  298.15 K. The obtained results, Δ_cr^gH_m^o(C₇H₆O₂)  =  (88.3  ±  0.5)kJ · mol ^− 1and Δ_cr^gH_m^o(C₁₀H₁₀Fe) =  (73.3  ±  0.1)kJ · mol ^− 1, are in excellent agreement with the corresponding values recommended in the literature. Subsequent application of the apparatus to the determination of the enthalpy of sublimation of η⁵-bis-pentamethylcyclopentadyenyl iron, at T =  298.15 K, led to Δ_cr^gH_m^o(C₂₀H₃₀Fe)  =  (96.8  ±  0.6)kJ · mol ^− 1.

The molar enthalpy and entropy of fusion as well as the chemical purity of the compound were determined to be (67244 ± 11) J · mol⁻¹, (209.28 ± 0.02) J · mol⁻¹ · K⁻¹, (0.9943 ± 0.0004) mass fraction, respectively. The extrapolated melting temperature for the absolutely pure compound obtained from fractional melting experiments was (322.264 ± 0.006) K.
