Enthalpy of hydrogen bonded alcohol-butyl amine complexes by a simpler calorimetric method

The heats of mixing ofn-butyl amine with methanol andn-propanol have been determined at 30° C and the enthalpies of alcohol-amine complex formation have been calculated by thermochemical cycle. The enthalpies of complex formation of butyl amine with methanol andn-propanol were found to be-44.3 kJ/mole and-39.4 kj/mole respectively. The heats of mixing of synthetically prepared 1:1 molar mixtures of n-butyl amine with methanol, ethanol andn-propanol withn-hexane have also been determined at 30° C. The enthalpy of amine-alcohol complexes was obtained from the partial molar heats of dissociation of the complexes inn-hexane. The values agree with those obtained by the thermochemical cycle method.

Calorimetric investigations of the solvent effect on complex formation between pyridine derivatives and molecular iodine

The heats of solution of isoquinoline and 2,4-lutidine and heats of 11 complex formation with molecular iodine inn-hexane, cyclohexane, CCl₄, benzene, and chlorobenzene have been determined by the calorimetric method. The heats of transfer of the donor and donor-acceptor complex from nonsolvating medium (n-hexane) to the particular solvent were calculated and discussed in terms of donor and solvent properties and solute-solute-solvent interactions.Presented at the IV International Symposium on Solute-Solute-Solvent Interactions, Vienna, September 11–16, 1978, pp. 152–154.     

Room-temperature interaction of n-hexane with ZSM-5 zeolites

In this work, room temperature interaction of n-hexane with HZSM-5 (Si/Al=20) and ion-exchanged samples containing one (CuZSM-5, FeZSM-5 and MnZSM-5) or two transition-metal cations (Fe,CuZSM-5; Cu,MnZSM-5 and Fe,MnZSM-5) was studied by microcalorimetry and TPD methods. Both differential heats and the amounts of n-hexane adsorbed per one unit cell were quantitatively determined. Higher heats of adsorption and higher amounts of adsorbed gas were found for ion-exchanged samples than for HZSM-5. The experiments of n-hexane adsorption on hydrated samples were also performed. The amounts of n-hexane adsorbed on hydrated ZSM-5 were lower in comparison with dehydrated samples, while the energies of interaction were similar.     

Enthalpy–entropy compensation for n-hexane adsorption on HZSM-5 containing transition metal ions

In this work, the values of entropy changes related to n-hexane adsorption onto ion-exchanged ZSM-5 zeolites were calculated from differential heats, obtained from microcalorimetric experiments. The existence of enthalpy–entropy compensation effect, evidenced by the linearity of −ΔH vs. −ΔS plots and characteristic for all investigated ZSM-5 zeolites, was found. In the case of ZSM-5 structure, modifying the zeolite structure by ion-exchange gives rise to changes in the heats of adsorption and adsorption entropy in the same manner. The factors that can influence the appearance of entropy–enthalpy compensation were discussed. It was found that compensation effect is governed by ion-induced dipole interaction between highly polarising cationic centres in zeolite and nonopolar n-hexane molecules, and hence, depends on the size, charge and electron configuration of the cation. It was found also that the compensation temperature is in correlation with the number of zeolites’ strong acid centres. Contrary to the adsorption of n-hexane on ZSM-5 zeolites, compensation effect was not found for the adsorption of the same gas on faujasite-type zeolites.     

Temperature dependence of the properties of ternary systems ethanol + water + an aliphatic alkane (C6-C9)

The measures and calculation of different properties such as refractive index, density, speed of sound, excess molar volume, and isentropic compressibility of the ternary heterogeneous compounds by ethanol + water + (n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane) have been performed in the range 288.15–323.15 K and atmospheric pressure. Attending to the accurate results of these models, the equation of state enclosing mixing rules is indicated as a simple estimation of the procedures of these properties for this kind of multicomponent systems.     

Can alkane isomers be separated? Adsorption equilibrium and kinetic data for hexane isomers and their binary mixtures on MFI

In this study we present a global overview of the adsorption behavior of hexane isomers on MFI. With an experimental approach that couples a manometric technique with Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, which has been recently developed, we did address adsorption kinetic properties of n-hexane, 2-methylpentane, 2,2-dimethylbutane and 2,3-dimethylbutane, and their binary mixtures. The adsorption equilibrium properties of the binary mixtures were also assessed using the same technique. Whereas the adsorption isotherms and heats of adsorption for single components have been studied by a manometric technique coupled with a micro calorimeter. The differential heats of adsorption of n-hexane increase slightly with loading, on the other hand the heat of adsorption of branched hexanes exhibits a decrease with loading. The diffusion rates on MFI of n-hexane, 2-methylpentane and 2,3-dimethylbutane are in the same order of magnitude. However, the diffusion rate of 2,2-dimethylbutane is two orders of magnitude lower than rates of the other isomers. In the binary mixtures the components interact and the difference between the diffusion rates of the components decreases. The MFI zeolite presents equilibrium selectivity towards the less branched isomers. In conclusion, a separation process for linear/mono-branched alkanes + double-branched alkanes, has to be based on its equilibrium properties and not based on adsorption kinetics.     

Thermodynamic investigations of sublimation, solubility and solvation of [4-(benzyloxy)-phenyl]acetic acid

Temperature dependences of solubility, saturated vapour pressure and crystal heat capacity of [4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]acetic acid were determined. The solubility of this compound was investigated in n-hexane, buffered water solutions with pH 2.0 and 7.4 and n-octanol. The enthalpy of sublimation and vaporization as well as the fusion temperature were determined. Solvation and solubility processes have been analyzed. The thermodynamics of transfer processes from one buffer to another (protonation process), from buffers to 1-octanol (partitioning process), and from n-hexane to the applied solvents (specific interaction) have been calculated and compared to those of other NSAIDs. The relevant shares of specific and non-specific interactions in the process of solvation have been investigated and discussed.     

Thermodynamic study of binary mixtures of isomeric butylamines with methanol enthalpy of hydrogen bonded complex

Heats of mixing of the binary mixtures ofn-, sec-, iso- andt-butylamines with methanol were determined in the entire concentration range. All the four systems showed a strong exothermic behaviour. The exothermic heats of mixing vary in the ordert-BuNH₂ >n-BuNH₂ > sec-BuNH₂ > iso-BuNH₂. The enthalpy of hydrogen bond in the methanol-butylamine complexes was calculated by means of a thermochemical cycle and found to vary in the ordert-BuNH₂ >n-BuNH₂ > iso-BuNH₂ > sec-BuNH₂. This order is different than that found for the hydrogen bond due to self-association. The difference has been explained in the light of steric and electromeric effects arising out of the substitution of the methyl groups in the alkyl chain of the butylamine.

Thermodynamic interactions and characterisation of naphthenic oil by inverse gas chromatography

The thermodynamic properties of naphthenic oil, a plasticiser, were investigated by means of inverse gas chromatography (IGC) using 10 different kinds of solvents as probes. Some thermodynamic parameters, such as specific retention volume, weight fraction activity coefficient, Flory–Huggins interaction parameter, partial molar heats of mixing and solubility parameter were obtained to judge the interactions between oil and solvents and the solubility of oil in these solvents. The results indicated that n-heptane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, chloroform, benzene and diethyl ether are good solvents for oil at experimental temperatures. The solubility parameters of oil varied from 13.94 to 13.21?(J?cm^?3)^1/2 at temperature range 323–353?K. The solubility parameter of oil was calculated to be 14.38?(J?cm^?3)^1/2 at room temperature, which is consistent with that obtained using surface tension–solubility parameter relation method.     

Thermodynamic properties of transition metals in aqueous solution: 3. The heats of mixing aqueous solutions of CdCl2, NiCl2 and ZnCl2 with NaCl at varying ionic strength at 25°C

The heat of dilution of aqueous solutions of ZnCl₂ and the heats of mixing H _m of aqueous solutions of CdCl₂, NiCl₂, and ZnCl₂ with NaCl solutions were measured at 25°C. The heats of mixing were made at constant ionic strengths of 0.5, 1.0, and 3.0 molal. The excess enthalpy equations of Pitzer were then fitted to the resulting heats of dilution and heats of mixing data. The resulting parameters are the temperature derivatives of the activity coefficient mixing parameters in the Pitzer system.     

Enantioseparation of Novel Amino Analogs of Indole Phytoalexins on Macrocyclic Glycopeptide-Based Chiral Stationary Phase

Direct chiral separation of the enantiomers of spirobrassinin, 1-methoxyspirobrassinin and ten novel cis- and trans-diastereoisomers of 2-amino analogs of indole phytoalexin 1-methoxyspirobrassinol methyl ether on macrocyclic glycopeptide-based chiral stationary phase (CSP) with teicoplanin (Chirobiotic T) was studied. Normal phase eluents containing n-hexane with modifiers ethanol and 2-propanol were used. The effects of mobile phase composition, structure of the analytes and temperature were investigated. Chiral resolution on teicoplanin CSP was achieved only in the case of trans-diastereoisomers. The van’t Hoff plots were found to show linear behavior in all cases. It was found that studied normal phase enantioseparations were enthalpy driven. The elution order of the enantiomers was determined in some cases.

     

Détermination des enthalpies de mélange de non-electrolytes á l'aide du microcalorimétre picker á écoulement continu

The performance of the Picker dynamic-flow microcalorimeter, which is able to scan and record (in 20 min) the enthalpy of mixing directly as a function of concentration, has been investigated at 298.15 K by measuring the three standard systems: cyclohexane + n-hexane, benzene + cyclohexane and carbon tetrachloride + benzene. Results agree to within better than 1%, in a large central range of concentration with the most reliable published data.     

Preferential sorption and permeation of binary liquid mixtures in poly (vinyl chloride) membrane by pervaporation

Preferential sorptions and pervaporation selectivities in poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane for various binary liquid mixtures were investigated. Methanol/n-propanol, benzene/n-hexane, and ethanol/water mixtures were selected as the binary liquid mixture. In the methanol/n-propanol mixture, methanol was preferentially sorbed in the PVC membrane and predominantly permeated. In the benzene/n-hexane mixture, benzene was incorporated and permeated preferentially. In the ethanol/water mixture, ethanol was preferentially sorbed in the PVC membrane and water was preferentially permeated. The preferential sorptions were analyzed according to Mulder's model derived from Flory-Huggins thermodynamics. The pervaporation selectivity in these systems were discussed using a sorption selectivity and diffusion selectivity. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Construction of solid-liquid phase diagrams in ternary systems by titration calorimetry

Titration calorimetry was used to construct the solid-liquid equilibrium line in ternary systems containing the solute and an aqueous mixed solvent by measuring the heat of dissolution of the solid solute during successive additions of the liquid solvent. The plot of cumulated heats versus the mole ratio, n_solvent/n_solute, yields two (almost) linear increases of different slopes. These two lines represent successively the enthalpy of dissolution then the enthalpy of dilution of the medium; their intersection gives the solubility and the enthalpy of dissolution of the solute. Phase diagrams have been established over the whole concentration range for o-anisaldehyde, 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene and vanillin, in water + methanol, +ethanol, or +n-propanol at 303, 313 and 318 K.     

Enantioseparation of Some New 1-(2-Naphthyl)-1-ethanol Ester Derivatives by HPLC on Chiralcel OD

The direct enantiomeric resolution of racemic 2-(1H-imidazole-1-yl)-1-naphthalene-2-yl)ethanol esters, 1-(naphthalene-2-yl)ethanol esters, and 1-(1-hydroxynaphthalene-2-yl)-2-(1H-imidazole-1-yl)ethanol on silica-based cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralcel OD) column is described. The separations were performed using mobile phases which consist of alcohol (methanol, ethanol or 2-propanol)/n-hexane in various proportions. The effect of structural features of the solutes along with the nature and concentration of alcohol in the mobile phase on the discrimination between the enantiomers was examined for different mobile phase compositions. The results suggest that not only the structure and concentration of alcohol in the mobile phase, but also the subtle structural differences in racemates can have a pronounced effect on enantiomeric separation and retention. Baseline separations were obtained for 2-(1H-imidazole-1-yl)-1-naphthalene-2-yl)ethanol esters carrying imidazole ring in addition to ester functional group in their structures. The α values of the resolved enantiomers of 2-(1H-imidazole-1-yl)-1-naphthalene-2-yl)ethanol esters were in the range of 1.49–1.62 while the R _s values varied from 4.20 to 6.75 when methanol/n-hexane (70:30 v/v) was used as mobile phase.

     

Polymerization of coordinated monomers. VI. Molecular complex formation of methyl methacrylate coordinated to stannic chloride with styrene or toluene

The equilibrium constants for the complex formation between stannic chloride and methyl methacrylate were determined in n-hexane–toluene solution at 0, ?20, and ?30°C by using the absorption band at 350 nm. Continuous variation plots at ?20°C in n-hexane based on the ¹H-chemical shifts definitely show a 1:1 interaction between the coordinated methyl methacrylate and styrene or toluene. The magnitudes of the shifts for the four groups of protons in methyl methacrylate are found to be in a specific ratio in common with the 1:2 complex–styrene or -toluene system. The equilibrium constants for the ternary molecular complex formation between the 1:2 complex and styrene or toluene were determined in n-hexane in the temperature range ?50 to +20°C by use of the chemical shifts. The concentrations of the complex species in the alternating copolymerization solutions were estimated by use of the equilibrium constants. There is a linear relationship between the enthalpy and the entropy changes for the ternary molecular complex formation, which is governed by the enthalpy factor. The specificity of the interactions indicates a specific time-averaged orientation of benzene ring to the coordinated methyl methacrylate. The effects of the coordination of methyl methacrylate to stannic chloride were discussed on the basis of results of ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy.     

Surface tension of binary liquid mixtures

Experimental measurements of the liquid-air interfacial tension are reported for the systems benzene + n-hexane at 20°C and acetone + isooctane at 25°C. The excess surface tension for both systems is negative while the surface tension itself for the second system, when plotted against composition, exhibits a flat minimum. An attempt is made to interpret this behavior in terms of basic thermodynamic quantities of the mixtures such as the excess free enthalpy, the heat of mixing, the excess volume, and the isothermal compressibility.     

A new host compound for the selective inclusion of ethanol

A new host compound of the onium salt type,N-(3-biphenylmethyl)quininium bromide (1), is described. This host compound shows an unusually high selectivity for the inclusion of ethanol. Using this clathrand, ethanol can be extracted from a variety of solvent mixtures. In most cases, a remarkable enrichment of the ethanol is observed. The following solvents in a mixture with ethanol remain in the mother liquid: methanol,n-propanol,n-hexane, pyridine.     

Thermodynamic study of poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) hydration at temperatures close to lower critical solution temperature

The lower critical solution temperature of aqueous solutions of poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) falls in the 305–307 K range and depends on the molecular weight of the polymer. The thermodynamic functions of mixing at 298 K have been calculated from measurements of vapor pressures and heats of dissolution and dilution. Partial Gibbs energy, partial enthalpy, and partial entropy of mixing were negative over the entire range of composition. Increasing temperature resulted in a decrease in the exothermal character of mixing. Excessive heat capacity values, calculated from the dependencies of enthalpy of mixing on temperature, were positive over the entire composition range. Heat capacity of dilute solutions was measured at 298 K and partial heat capacity of poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) at infinite dilution was shown to be positive. The data obtained point out the hydrophilic and hydrophobic hydration of poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) in aqueous solutions. Hydrophobic hydration dominates at temperatures close to binodal curve. As a result, the mutual mixing of the polymer with water is decreased and phase separation takes place.     

Liquid Solution Densities of Ternary-Pseudobinary Mixtures of (Benzene + Cyclohexane) in the Presence of Tetrachloromethane or <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-Hexane

Densities have been obtained as a function of composition for ternary-pseudobinary mixtures of [(benzene + tetrachloromethane or n-hexane) + (cyclohexane + tetrachloromethane or n-hexane)] at atmospheric pressure and the temperature 298.15 K, by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter. Excess molar volumes, V_m^E, partial molar volumes and excess partial molar volumes were calculated from the density data. The values of V_m^E have been correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation and the coefficients and standard errors were estimated. The experimental and calculated quantities are used to discuss the mixing behavior of the components. The results show that the third component, CCl₄ or n-C₆H₁₄, have quite different influences on the volumetric properties of binary liquid mixtures of benzene with cyclohexane.
