Estimation of n-Octanol/water Partition Coefficients （lgKow） and the Aqueous Solubility （-lgSw） of all PCDF Congeners by Density Functional Theory

1 INTRODUCTION As is widely known, PCDFs together with poly- chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and poly- chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been included in many blacklists, such as “persistent organic pol- lutants (POPs)” and suspected “environmental en- docrine disruptors (EEDs)”. This is because PC- DFs are chemically and thermally stable and com- plex PCDF mixtures are generally resistant to bio- degradation. Although the concentration of these chemicals is quite low o…     

A New Set of Gas/Water Partition Coefficients for the Chloromethanes

Summary. In the literature, there is a considerable number of articles and reviews providing data and information on the solubility of chloromethanes in water. However, the substantial difference between the numerical values given by various authors hinders their practical application. In the current work we present the harmonized results of experimentally determined gas/water partition coefficients of CH₂Cl₂, CHCl₃, and CCl₄, in the temperature range from 278 to 343 K, and with on uncertainty limit of less than 10%.     

聚异丙基丙烯酰胺高分子在甲醇水溶液中溶解性的拉曼光谱研究

通过测量-13℃(低于低临界溶解温度(LCST))时聚异丙基丙烯酰胺(PNIPAM)高分子在甲醇水溶液中的拉曼光谱非一致效应(NCE),试图从PNIPAM与溶剂分子间的相互作用角度理解PNIPAM的溶解性.通过比较甲醇水溶液中加入PNIPAM前后甲醇分子C-O伸缩所对应的NCE变化,我们认为:甲醇摩尔分数(x)在1.0-0.90范围内,PNIPAM优先吸附甲醇分子;x=0.80-0.50时,PNIPAM优先吸附水分子;而x=0.50-0.20时,PNIPAM破坏了甲醇与水所形成的三元环稳定结构.进一步比较加入PNIPAM或其单元结构--异丙基丙酰胺(NIPPA)对甲醇水溶液NCE的影响,发现PNIPAM通过链段间的疏水协同作用吸附了甲醇分子.我们认为在甲醇水溶液的低浓度区间,这种协同作用破坏了甲醇与水形成的三元环团簇结构,而当温度升高时这种结构又重新形成,导致了PNIPAM在甲醇水溶液中的混致不溶现象.

Precipitation and Solubility of Calcium Soaps in Basic Aqueous Media

Measurements of the surface tension of aqueous media containing calcium salts of different fatty acids, whose structure only varied by the number of C=C unsaturations along their aliphatic chains, showed that their solubility increased as a function of this parameter going from near zero for calcium stearate to 4x10(-4) mol l(-1) for the linolenate homologue. The solubility product of the calcium soap corresponding to each tested fatty acid was estimated by using the anionic fatty acids adsorption isotherms in order to obtain the amount of dissolved ionic fatty acid at increasing concentration of calcium ions. These findings are discussed in terms of their serious repercussions on the operations related to flotation deinking in waste paper recycling. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

Partition Equilibrium on the Interface Between a Charged Membrane and a Mixed Electrolyte Aqueous Solution

Ionic partition equilibrium on a charged membrane immersed in a mixed electrolyte solution was systematically investigated and several models were established for the determination of partition coefficients.On the basis of theoretical models,the effects of the concentration ratio λof the fixed group(charged density) to reference electrolyte,the concentration ratio η between the two electrolytes existing in the solution and the valence of the electrolyte ions on the partition equilibrium in a positively charged membrane were analyzed and simulated within the chosen parameters in detail.The obtainable results can also be applicable to a sytem of mixed electrolytes contacting with a negatively charged membrane.The theoretical calculations were confirmed with the experimental data of model mixed electrolytes,NaCl HCl and CaCl2 NaCl partitioned in the system of self-made negatively charged membrane-sulphonated poly (phenylene oxide)(SPPO) with different charge densities.     

Partition Coefficients in Octanol-Water and Liquid Chromatographic Behavior of Eight Oxygenated Triterpenes Which are Paired Stereo- and Positional Isomers

The chromatographic behavior of eight lanostanoid triterpenes, which are four pairs of C-3 epimers and two pairs of C-3/C-15 positional isomers, were determined by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). In the mobile phase systems of acetonitrile-water-acetic acid, methanol-water-acetic acid, and tetrahydrofuran-water-acetic acid, these triterpenes showed a very good linear relationship between capacity factors (k′) and volume fractions of organic modifiers. The partition coefficients (Poet) of these triterpenes in 1-octanol/water and capacity factors (k′) in RP-HPLC, when both expressed in logarithm, correlated linearly. This study showed that RP-HPLC is an effective method to evaluate the molecular hydrophobicity of multi-functional compounds which are stereo- and positional isomers.     

Solubility of Carbon Dioxide in Aqueous Mixtures of DIPA + MDEA and DIPA + PZ Solutions

The new data for solubility of carbon dioxide are reported in mixed solvents containing (2.00 to 2.50 kmol/m³) Diisopropanolamine (DIPA), (0.86 to 1.36) kmol/m³) Piperazine (PZ), (0.86 to 1.36) kmol/m³) N‐methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and water, keeping the amine total concentration in the aqueous solution at 3.36 kmol/m³ for temperatures from (40 to 70) °C and CO₂ partial pressures in the range of (30 to 5000) kPa. Experimental solubility results were represented by the mole ratio of CO₂ per total amine in the liquid mixture. Results show that at a given partial pressure of CO₂ the solubility of CO₂ in the DIPA solutions is lower than solubility in MDEA or PZ solutions and the CO₂ loading increased with decreasing temperature and increasing CO₂ partial pressure.     

Cyclodextrins as Enhancers of the Aqueous Solubility of the Anthelmintic Drug Mebendazole: Thermodynamic Considerations

Summary.  Inclusion complexes of mebendazole with α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrins, hydroxylpropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) were investigated employing the Higuchi and Connors solubility method. The solubility of mebendazole increased as a function of cyclodextrin concentration showing an A_L phase diagram indicating the formation of soluble complexes with 1:1 stoichiometry. The Gibbs free energies of transfer of the drug from aqueous solution to the cavity of cyclodextrin are negative and increase negatively with increasing cyclodextrin concentration. The solubility of mebendazole as well as the stability constant of its complex with Me-β-CD are found to be affected by the pH of the medium. The Me-β-CD cavity was found to have a greater affinity for the unionized mebendazole rather than the protonated one. Effects of methanol and temperature on these interactions were also investigated to gain further knowledge on the mechanism of the inclusion process. It was found that the interaction between the drug and the cyclodextrin is weakened as the medium becomes more apolar and the temperature increases. Moreover, the thermodynamic parameters for the binding were derived from the dependence of the stability constants on the temperature (van’t Hoff analysis). The formation of the inclusion complexes between the drug and β-CD or its derivatives was found to be enthalpy controlled, with |ΔH °| > T|ΔS °|. This suggests that hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions as well as solvent reorganization are the main driving forces. Furthermore, the size of the cavity of cyclodextrins plays an important role in the association process.

The Solubility of Sodium Sulfate and the Reduction of Aqueous Sulfate by Magnetite under Near-Critical Conditions

The solubility of Na₂SO₄ (s) (thenardite) and the interactions between magnetiteand aqueous Na₂SO₄ near the critical point of water have been determined in azirconium-alloy flow reactor at temperatures 350°C t 375°C and isobaricpressures 190 p 305 bar. The experimental solubility data are describedwell as a function of temperature and solvent density ₁ byln x(Na₂SO₄, aq.) = –10.47 – 27550/T +(4805/T) ln ₁.The interaction between magnetite and Na₂SO₄ (aq.) was examined from 250 to370°C at molalities near the saturation composition of Na₂SO₄ (s). While no solidreaction products were observed, HS^– (aq.) was observed to form above 350°Cby sulfate reduction, as a product of the reaction8 Fe₃O₄(s) + Na₂SO₄ (aq.) + H₂O(l)= 12 Fe₂O₃ (s) + NaHS (aq.) + NaOH (aq.).The reduction reaction appears to be controlled by surface reaction kinetics, ata level well below the equilibrium molality of HS^– (aq.). Metallic iron reactedwith Na₂SO₄ (aq.) in a similar fashion at temperatures above 350°C, to yieldhigher molalities of HS^– (aq.).

Solubility of Zinc Silicate and Zinc Ferrite in Aqueous Solution to High Temperatures

Crystalline zinc silicate, Zn₂SiO₄, and zinc ferrite, ZnFe₂O₄, were prepared and characterized. The solubilities of these phases were measured using flow-through apparatus from 50 to 350 °C in 100 °C intervals over a wide range of pH. Both solid phases dissolve incongruently, presumably to form ZnO(s) and Fe₂O₃(s) (or the corresponding hydroxide phases at low temperature), respectively. The respective concentrations of zinc(II) and iron(III) matched those of ZnO(cr) and Fe₂O₃(s) (≥150 °C) reported in the literature, whereas the corresponding Si(IV) and Zn(II) concentrations were at least an order of magnitude below the solubility limits for their pure oxide phases. Therefore, the solubility constants for zinc silicate and ferrite were determined with respect to the known solubility constants for ZnO(cr) and Fe₂O₃(s) (≥150 °C), respectively, and the corresponding concentrations of Si(IV) and Zn(II) measured in this study. The results of independent experiments, as well as those reported in the literature provide insights into the mechanism(s) of formation of zinc silicate and ferrite in the primary circuits of nuclear reactors.

One‐Pot Synthesis of Sulfonamides and Sulfonyl Azides from Thiols using Chloramine‐T

A convenient synthesis of sulfonamides and sulfonyl azides from thiols is described. In situ preparation of sulfonyl chlorides from thiols was accomplished by oxidation with chloramine‐T (=N‐chlorotosylamide=N‐chloro‐4‐methylbenzenesulfonamide), tetrabutylammonium chloride (Bu₄NCl), and H₂O. The sulfonyl chlorides were then further allowed to react with excess amine or NaN₃ in the same pot.     

Ring Expansion Strategies for the Synthesis of Medium Sized Ring and Macrocyclic Sulfonamides

Two new ring expansion strategies are reported for the synthesis of medium sized ring and macrocyclic sulfonamides. Both methods can be performed without using classical protecting groups, with the key ring expansion step initiated by nitro reduction and amine conjugate addition respectively. Each method can be used to make diversely functionalised cyclic sulfonamides in good to excellent yields, in a range of ring sizes. The ring size dependency of the synthetic reactions is in good agreement with the outcomes modelled by Density Functional Theory calculations.     

Determination of Octanol–Water Partition Coefficients,Water Solubility and Vapour Pressures of Alkyl-lead Compounds

Physico-chemical properties of alkyl-lead compounds, namely aqueous solubility, octanol–water partition coefficient ( K _ow), vapour pressure and Henry's Law constant, have been determined. Vapour pressures of trialkyl-lead salts at different temperatures were measured by a gas-saturation technique in which air was passed slowly through a glass column packed with pure solid alkyl-lead compounds. K _ow of tetra-alkyl-lead (TAL) and trialkyl-lead (TriAL) were determined under different salinity and pH conditions, and the latter were related to the species (R₃Pb⁺, R₃PbOH⁰ or R₃PbCl⁰) dominating under a particular set of conditions. Regression calculations incorporating melting point corrections relate water solubility to K _ow, and provide a means of estimating either parameter for a wider range of compounds.
