Temperature Dependence of the Solubility of Acetaminophen in Propylene Glycol + Ethanol Mixtures

The thermodynamic functions Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy of solution, mixing and solvation of acetaminophen in propylene glycol (PG) + ethanol (EtOH) cosolvent mixtures were evaluated from solubility data measured at several temperatures, using the van't Hoff and Gibbs equations. The solubility was greater at 50% m/m of PG at 20.0^C, while it was greater at 80% of PG at 40.0 ^C where m/m refers to mass percent. The solvation of this drug is appreciably greater in the mixtures than in the pure solvents. By means of an enthalpy–entropy compensation analysis, complex behavior was found for the solution. From 0 up to 20% of PG and from 60 up to 100% of PG the solution process is enthalpy driven, whereas from 20 up to 60% of PG it is entropy driven. These facts can be explained in terms of a decrease in the energy required for cavity formation in the solvent for mixtures containing 20–60% of PG.     

The structure of diluted binary solutions of amides according to the heat capacity data

The specific heat capacities of hexamethylphosphoric triamide, diethylpropionamide, their aqueous solutions, and mixtures of hexamethylphosphoric triamide with formamide were measured in the temperature range from 288.15 to 318.15 K. The dependences of the partial molar heat capacity of aqueous solutions of amides on the composition of the mixture have maxima in the region of 0.02–0.04 molar fractions of amide. The maximum on a similar dependence for solutions of hexamethylphosphoric triamide corresponds to the concentration of 0.01 molar fractions. The conclusion on the formation of solvates (hydrates) in the systems studied was made. The heat capacity coefficients of pair and triple interactions were calculated in terms of the McMillan-Mayer theory. A change in the heat capacity characteristics with the temperature change was analyzed. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 12, pp. 2479–2483, December, 1998.

Molecular volume calculation using AM1 semi-empirical method toward diffusion coefficients and electrophoretic mobility estimates in aqueous solution

Diffusion coefficients and electrophoretic mobility are two important physicochemical parameters used in mass transport phenomenon studies. The volume of the solute is required to determine or estimate these parameters. Classical methods, such as the LeBas method are commonly used. However, although valid, this method may represent a boring and time-consuming task, depending on the nature and number of compounds to be calculated. In this study, the volumes of a series of neutral and charged substances of the main functional groups present in organic molecules, amino acids, drugs and diverse compounds, such as cytosine and glucose, were calculated according to the LeBas method (V_M) and the AM1 semi-empirical method, V_W(AM1). The latter showed to be statistically coincident with the former. Employed as a pure value or corrected by the LeBas molar volume, the AM1 molecular volume was also demonstrated to estimate the diffusion coefficients in infinite aqueous dilution within an acceptable average error, according to the Othmer–Thakar, Wilke–Chang and Hayduk–Laudie methods, as well as the electrophoretic mobility of charged substances, such as carboxylates and protonated amines. According to these results, the AM1 method was seen to be statistically valid to calculate molecular volume. Many advantages in the construction of most diverse structures were noted, as well as a reduction in time and an increase in the quality of the information, when run on molecular modeling software.     

Phase-fixed double-group 3-Γ symbols. IV. Real 3-Γ symbols and coupling coefficients for the group hierarchies T* ⊃ C 3 * and T* ⊃ C 2 *

We present sets of real 3- symbols which correspond to explicitly given irreducible matrix representations for the two double group hierarchies T* C ₃ ^* and T* C ₂ ^* . They fit into the formalism exposed in a previous paper [1] on the general theory of 3- symbols and coupling coefficients and illustrate much of the discussion in a subsequent one [2] treating the particular properties of the double groups.     

Lower rim substituted tert-butylcalix[4]arenes. Part 8: Calix[4]arenes with dialkoxyphosphoryl functions. Synthesis and complexing properties

New compounds: 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,26,27,28-tetrakis(3-diisopropoxyphosphorylpropoxy)calix[4]arene (1) and 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,26,27,28-tetrakis(3-methoxyethoxyphosphorylpropoxy)calix[4]arene (2) were synthesized and their ionophoric properties in ion-selective membrane electrodes were studied in comparison with already described by us 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,26,27,28-tetrakis(3-diethoxyphophorylpropoxy)calix[4]arene (3). Complexes of 1 with calcium(II), lanthanum(III), europium(III) and gadolinium(III) nitrates were prepared in direct reaction of the ligand and appropriate metal salts. They were characterized by spectral data (IR, UV/Vis, luminescence, NMR, ESI-MS) and elemental analysis. The similarity in complexing behavior of the (dialkoxyphosphoryl)propoxy-calix[4]arenes toward calcium and some lanthanides was observed.     

Enthalpies of Dilution of D-p-Hydroxyphenylglycine in Buffer Solutions at Different pH

The effect of pH on the dilution enthalpies of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine in phosphate buffer solutions has been investigated by isothermal titration microcalorimetry at 298.15 K. The corresponding homogeneous enthalpic interaction coefficients have been calculated according to the excess enthalpy concept. The results show that the enthalpies of dilution of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine in phosphate buffer solutions at different pH are all positive. The overall trend is that enthalpies of dilution become more positive with an increase of pH, but there is a minimum of the enthalpy of dilution at pH = 7.0. The enthalpic pair interaction coefficients, h ₂, all have negative values. The results are interpreted from the point of view of solute-solute and solute-solvent interactions involved in the solvent effects.
