Structural and thermal characterization of Fe(III) and Fe(II) complexes with tridentate ONO pyridoxal semicarbazone

In the scope of design and optimise the equipment for alcoholic distillate beverages production, a sufficient knowledge of physical properties and phase equilibria is necessary. In this paper we present the temperature dependence of excess molar volumes of the ternary system ethanol+water+1-propanol at the range 288.15–323.15 K and atmospheric pressure, due to the importance of the 1-propanol among the flavour compounds contained into this type of beverages. Derived properties were computed due to its importance in the study of specific molecular interactions.     

Temperature Dependence of Excess Molar Volumes of Ethanol + Water + Ethyl Acetate

In order to design and optimize equipment needed for production of distilled alcoholic beverages, an adequate knowledge of their physical properties and phase equilibria is necessary. The key thermodynamic information needed is for those chemicals that are the main components in terms of nonideal behavior. In this paper we present the temperature dependence of the excess molar volumes of the ternary system ethanol + water + ethyl acetate in the range 288.15–323.15 K at atmospheric pressure, due to the importance of ethyl acetate among the flavor compounds contained in this type of beverage. The observed excess molar volumes are usually negative over the whole homogeneous composition range, but take on positive values as the binary ethanol + ethyl acetate system is approached and the liquid phase separation region is observed. Because the current process designs are strongly computer oriented, the accuracy of theoretical model predictions was examined. The experimental data were used to test the capability of the Soave–Redlich–Kwong (SRK) equation of state to predict the ternary mixture behavior from binary mixture interaction parameters, which were obtained from previously published data. Derived properties, such as partial the excess molar volumes, excess isobaric expansibility, and the pressure derivative of excess molar enthalpy at constant temperature were calculated, due to their importance in the study of specific molecular interactions.     

Temperature dependence of volumetric behaviour for methyl tert-butylether+1-butanol system

Excess molar volumes and excess isoentropic compressibilities of methyl tert-butylether (MTBE)+1-butanol at 288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15 and 308.15 K and atmospheric pressure have been studied. In order to analyse the temperature dependence of this mixture, isobaric expansibility a, (dV _m ^e dT) _P,xand (dH _m ^e dP ) _T,x, were computed by analytical differentiation of the density and excess molar volume fitting equations. Cubic equation of state (Soave-Redlich-Kwong) has been applied to excess molar volume correlation obtaining binary interaction parameters using different mixing rules.

Volumetric,viscometric and acoustic properties of binary mixtures of 2-propanol with n -alkanes (C6, C8, C10) at 298.15 and 308.15 K

Densities (ρ), viscosities (η), and speeds of sound, (u) of the binary mixtures of 2-propanol with n-alkanes (n-hexane, n-octane, and n-decane) were measured over the entire composition range at 298.15 and 308.15 K and at atmospheric pressure. Using the experimental values of density, viscosity and speed of sound, the excess molar volumes (V ^E), viscosity deviations (Δη), deviations in speed of sound (Δu), isentropic compressibility (κ _s), deviations in isentropic compressibility (Δκ _s), and excess Gibbs energies of activation of viscous flow (ΔG* ^E) were calculated. These results were fitted to the Redlich–Kister type polynomial equation. The variations of these excess parameters with composition were discussed from the viewpoint of intermolecular interactions in these mixtures. The excess properties are found to be either positive or negative depending on the molecular interactions and the nature of liquid mixtures.     

Thermodynamic properties of the mixture [x1,3-dioxane+(1-x) 1,4-dioxane] at the temperature 298.15 K

Excess enthalpies, excess heat capacities, excess volumes and sound velocities of the mixture of dioxane isomers, 1,3-dioxane and 1,4-dioxane, were measured. One of the isomers, 1,4-dioxane is considered as non-polar liquid and the other as polar liquid. Excess enthalpies are positive and small, less than 55 J mol^-1. Excess heat capacities are also very small and the curve is W-shaped, and the values are from 0.03 to -0.08 J mol^-1 K^-1. Excess volumes and excess isentropic compressibilities are small and positive, and less than 0.03 cm³ mol^-1 and 0.8 TPa^-1.

Temperature dependence of thermophysical properties of octane+1-butanol system

The aim of this work is to complete our studies on physical properties of binary mixtures of alkane+1-alkanols. This work reports densities, refractive indices, speeds of sound and isentropic compressibilities of the mixture octane + 1-butanol at different temperatures, from 288.15 to 308.15 K. From the experimental values, the corresponding excess and deviation values were computed (excess molar volumes, changes of refractive index on mixing, changes of speed of sound on mixing and changes of isentropic compressibilities on mixing). The results were fitted to variable-degree polynomials. Excess molar volumes were compared with the predictions of Nitta-Chao Group Contribution Model. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Excess enthalpies of (ethanol + methyltert-butyl ether + a C6-hydrocarbon) ternary systems at 25°C

Excess molar enthalpies, measured at 25°C in a flow microcalorimeter, are reported for the three ternary systems [ethanol + methyl tert-butyl ether + (n-hexane or 2,3-dimethylbutane, or cyclohexane)]. Smoothing equations were fitted to the results and used to construct constant excess enthalpy contours for each of the systems.     

Thermodynamics of aqueous mixtures of 2-(2-Hexyloxyethoxy)ethanol at 5°C

The densities and the ultrasonic speeds of the aqueous solutions of 2-(2-hexyloxyethoxy)ethanol (C₆E₂) were measured over the entire range of mole fractions at 5°C. Excess molar volumes V ^E were readily calculated from the densities. The densities, in combination with the ultrasonic speeds, furnish estimates of the molar (and excess molar) isentropic compressibilities K _S and the deviations u ^D of the ultrasonic speeds from the values calculated for ideal mixtures. Radical changes in the mole fraction derivatives of the excess molar properties of the (C₆E₂ + water) system, in the vicinity of an amphiphile mole fraction of 0.003, indicate that C₆E₂ like C₆E₃ is capable of micelle formation. Our data have been compared with those reported earlier for (C₄E₂ +, C₂E₂ +, and C₆E₃ + water). We have employed both mass action and pseudophase approaches to data analysis, together with the four-segment model approach.     

Densities,speeds of sound and refractive indices for binary and ternary mixtures of {diethylcarbonate (1) + p-chloroacetophenone (2) + 1-hexanol (3)} at 303.15 K for the liquid region and at ambient pressure

Densities (ρ), speeds of sound (u) and refractive indices (n_D ), of the ternary mixture (diethylcarbonate + p-chloroacetophenone + 1-hexanol) and the involved binary mixtures (diethylcarbonate + p-chloroacetophenone, diethylcarbonate + 1-hexanol, and p-chloroacetophenone + 1-hexanol) have been measured over the whole composition range at 303.15 K for the liquid region and at ambient pressure. The data obtained are used to calculate isentropic compressibilities k_s , isentropic compressibility deviations Δk_s and refractive index deviations Δn_D , of the binary and ternary mixtures. The data of isentropic compressibility deviations and refractive index deviations of the binary systems were fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation while the best correlation method for the ternary system was found using the Cibulka equation. The experimental data of the constitute binaries and ternaries are analysed to discuss the nature and strength of intermolecular interactions in these mixtures.

The excess volumes are all negative and they become more positive with increase of temperature. Limiting partial molar volumes for DMPU in water and water in DMPU are also reported.     

Volumetric and compressibility studies for (L-arginine + D-maltose monohydrate + water) system in the temperature range of (298.15 to 308.15) K

The density and speed of sound of L-arginine (0.025–0.2 mol kg^?1) in aqueous + D-maltose (0–6 mass% of maltose in water) were obtained at temperatures of (298.15, 303.15 and 308.15) K. The apparent molar volume, limiting apparent molar volume, transfer volume, as well as apparent molar compressibility, limiting apparent molar compressibility, transfer compressibility, pair and triple interaction coefficients, partial molar expansibilities, coefficient of thermal expansion and also the hydration number, were calculated using the experimental density and speed of sound values. The results have been discussed in terms of solute–solute and solute–solvent interactions in these systems. Solute–solvent (hydrophilic–ionic group and hydrophilic–hydrophilic group) interactions were found to be dominating over solute–solute (hydrophobic–hydrophilic group) interactions in the solution, which increases with increase in maltose concentration.     

Volumetric properties of the (tetrahydrofuran + water) and (tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide + water) systems: Experimental measurements and correlations

In this communication, we report experimental density data for the binary mixtures of (water + tetrahydrofuran) and (water + tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide) at atmospheric pressure and various temperatures. The densities were measured using an Anton Paar™ digital vibrating-tube densimeter. For the (tetrahydrofuran + water) system, excess molar volumes have been calculated using the experimental densities and correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation. The Redlich–Kister equation parameters have been adjusted on experimental results. The partial molar volumes and partial excess molar volumes at infinite dilution have also been calculated for each component. A simple density equation was finally applied to correlate the measured density of the (tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide + water) system.     

Volumetric behaviour of binary and ternary liquid systems composed of ethanol, isooctane, and toluene at temperatures from (298.15 to 328.15) K. Experimental data and correlation

The densities and speeds of sound of (ethanol + isooctane), (ethanol + toluene), and (ethanol + isooctane + toluene) were measured at four temperatures over the range (298.15 to 328.15) K, and the respective values of excess volumes and adiabatic compressibility κ_S were calculated. The and κ_S values for the binary systems were fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation. The respective ternary data together with corresponding binary data were then fitted to the modified Redlich–Kister equation considering various numbers of ternary constants. It was found that even for the systems containing self-associating alcohol, only one ternary parameter is sufficient to describe well the ternary system.

Density, refractive index and speed of sound at T=298.15 K and atmospheric pressure have been measured over the entire composition range for (dimethyl carbonate (DMC) + methanol + ethanol) and (DMC + methanol + 1-propanol). Excess molar volumes, changes of refractive index on mixing and deviations in isentropic compressibility for the above systems have been calculated. The calculated quantities are further fitted to the Cibulka equation to estimate the ternary fitting parameters. Standard deviations from the regression lines are shown.     

Temperature Dependence of the Refractive Index for the Mixtures {CH3(CH2)xOH, x=1, 2}+ {(CH3)2CH(CH2)yOH, y=0, 1, 2} and Estimation by Means of Cubic Equations of State

The applicability of cubic equations of state for refractive index estimation for binary alcohol mixtures {CH₃(CH₂)_xOH, x=1, 2}+{(CH₃)₂CH(CH₂)_yOH, y=0, 1, 2} at different temperatures was evaluated by using a derivation of the Heller equation. A qualitatively accurate response was obtained from the cubic equations and mixing rules applied, and the binary parameter obtained can be used for multicomponent refractive index prediction, or even for other thermodynamic properties.

Measurement and correlation of partition coefficients of hydrolytic enzymes for dextran+poly (ethylene glycol) + water aqueous two-phase systems at 20°C

The partition coefficients of hydrolytic enzymes, α-amylase, β-amylase and glucoamylase for the dextran (DEX)+poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)+water aqueous two-phase systems with various polymer molecular weights were measured at 20°C. The partition coefficients obtained were correlated by using a mod fied Flory-Huggins equation which was empirically proposed for aqueous systems. The interaction parameters required were determined by fitting the model to the experimental data. The partition coefficients could be correlated with good agreement.     

Studies on hydroxy inclusion complexes. I. Host-guest interaction of the molecular complexes of 9-hydroxy-9-(1-propynyl) fluorene and 1,1-Bis (2,4-dimethylphenyl)-2-butyn-1-ol with water,methanol, ethanol,andn-propanol

Molecular inclusion by hydroxy host systems (9-hydroxy-9-(1-propynyl)fluorene+guest and 1,1-bis(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-2-butyn-1-ol+guest) has been investigated by using an empirical potential function. Water, methanol, ethanol, andn-propanol have been employed as guest molecules and their relative stabilities are considered. Alcohol is found to be more suitable than water as a guest molecule in the two tested host molecules. It is also found that the nonbonded interaction is the most important factor in determining the relative stabilities of hydroxy host systems.
