Thermodynamic properties of organic compounds in aqueous solution. II. Apparent molal heat capacities of piperidines,morpholines, and piperazines

Apparent molal heat capacities of some piperidine, morpholine, and piperazine derivatives in aqueous solution have been determined by adiabatic calorimetry in the temperature range 20–55°C and in the molality range 0.2–1m. Comparison of experimental values with those calculated through group contributions, found for monofunctional compounds, indicates strong interactions between the hydrophilic centers. An interpretation is given of the possible mechanism of this interaction. Also, values of ΔC _p for the addition reaction of proton to nitrogen centers of mono- and bifunctional organic compounds are examined.     

Group contributions to the thermodynamic properties of non-ionic organic solutes in dilute aqueous solution

The thermodynamic properties G _h ^o,H _h ^o, and C _p,h ^oassociated with the transfer of non-ionic organic compounds from gas to dilute aqueous solution and the limiting partial molar properties C _p ^o ,2 and V₂ ² of these compounds in water are described through a simple scheme of group contributions. A distinction is made between groups made only of carbon and hydrogen, and functional groups i.e. groups containing at least one atom different from carbon and hydrogen. Each group is assigned a contribution, for each property, through a least squares procedure which utilizes only molecules containing at most one functional group. Finally, for compounds containing more than one functional group, correction parameters are evaluated as the differences between the experimental values and those calculated by means of the group contributions. The different behavior of hydrophilic compared with hydrophobic groups is discussed for the various properties. A rationale for the correction parameters, i.e. for the effects of the interactions among hydrophilic groups on the thermodynamic properties, is attempted.     

Partial molal expansibilities of organic compounds in aqueous solution. I. Alcohols and ethers

The temperature dependence of limiting apparent molal volumes ° in water for some alcohols (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-butanol, 3-pentanol, 3-hexanol, 2,5-hexanediol, cyclopentanol, cyclohexanol, cycloheptanol, and 1,4-cyclohexanediol) and ethers (trimethylene oxide, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, 1,3-dioxolane, 1,3-dioxane, 1,4-dioxane, 1,3-dioxepane, 1,3,5-trioxane, dimethoxymethane, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, diethoxymethane, and diethyl ether) has been studied in the temperature range 10–50°C by means of an automatic digital-readout dilatometer. Values of the thermal expansion coefficient * = (1/°)(°/T)_p have been obtained at several temperatures and discussed together with literature data on expansibilities of related compounds. The data show a wide spectrum of values of ^* at low temperatures which is narrowed at the higher ones. The expansibilities of monofunctional alcohols increase with increasing temperature; the opposite effect is observed for polyhydric alcohols. The ^*'s of ethers are very slightly temperature dependent and are much higher, at low temperature, than those of alcohols having the same ratio ofn _o/n_c. These results are discussed in terms of solutewater interactions, and a possible interpretation is put forward.     

Enthalpies of Solution of Organic Compounds inWater/Octan-1-ol Mixtures. A Rationale Based ona Model of Structural Organization of the SolventMedium

Limiting enthalpies of solution _solnH°(oct/w) of several monofunctionalcompounds (tetrahydropyran, diethylamine, pyrrolidine, piperidine,1-methylpiperidine) in water–octan-1-ol mixtures with water content ranging from zero tosaturation have been determined at 25°C. The observed phenomenology hasbeen interpreted by supposing that the solvent medium undergoes a microphasetransition at water mole fraction of about 0.08. In the water-poor region theexperimental behavior is consistent with the presence of water molecules inprevailingly monodispersed form, while in the water-rich region the formationof organized pseudomicellar water aggregates is suggested. Two different simplemodels have also been proposed to describe quantitatively the observed trendsof _solnH°(oct/w) vs. mole fraction of water.Deceased while this research was in progress.

Excess Molar Enthalpies and Excess Molar Volumes of (Water+Octan-1-ol or +Octan-2-ol) at 298.15 K

The excess molar enthalpies and volumes have been determined for the binary system (water+octan-1-ol or +octan-2-ol) by means of direct calorimetric and densimetric measurements in the miscibility range. The experimental data were described through a Redlich-Kister type equation. For excess enthalpies a sigmoidal shape is predicted,while excess volumes are negative except for a little positive queue observed for(water+octan-1-ol) system at very low water content. Also the partial molar enthalpies of solution and the partial molar volumes of water in the two isomeric octanols at infinite dilution have been evaluated and discussed. A comparison is made between excess enthalpies and excess free energies calculated by the UNIFAC method. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Apparent molal heat capacities of organic solutes in water. V. aminoalcohols,aminoethers, diamines,and polyethers

Apparent molal heat capacities of 20 organic uncharged compounds in aqueous solution have been determined at 25 and 40°C. The substances studied include mono- and polyfunctional ethers, and bifunctional open-chain compounds like aminoalcohols, aminoethers, and diamines. The results obtained support the presence of interaction between water and the hydrophilic groups –O–, –NH₂, –NH–, and , and evidence indicates that these interactions strongly depend on the molecular structure of the compound containing the functional group.     

Adiabatic and isothermal apparent molal compressibilities of organic compounds in water. I. Cyclic and open-chain secondary alcohols and ethers

The limiting apparent molal adiabatic and isothermal compressibilities in aqueous solutions of alcohols and ethers at various temperatures have been determined by means of ultrasonic velocity measurements. The following compounds have been considered: secondary cyclic and open-chain alcohols (cyclopentanol, cyclohexanol, cycloheptanol, 2-butanol, 3-pentanol, 3-hexanol, 4-heptanol; cyclic ethers of the types (CH₂)₃O_n (n=1, 2, 3), (CH₂)_nO₂ (n=3, 4, 5), and (CH₂)_nO (n=3, 4, 5); and the linear diethers dimethoxymethane, diethoxymethane, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The results indicate that both alcohols and ethers cause the water near the solute to become more resistant to pressure than the bulk. This is in agreement with the prediction of a mixture model for water.     

Thermodynamic studies on the addition of molecular oxygen to Co(II)-1,4,8,12 tetraazacyclopentadecane in aqueous solution at 25°C

Aqueous solutions containing Co²⁺ and the macrocyclic ligand 1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadecane (L) are able to bind reversibly molecular oxygen to form the species Co₂L₂O ₂ ⁴⁺ between pH 5 and 7. This species at pH greater than 8 is replaced by the complex Co₂L₂O₂ (OH) ₂ ²⁺ whose concentration in the solution increases to about pH 10.5. At pH greater than 10.5, Co(II) exists totally in this -peroxobisydroxo complex. Both the above mentioned oxygenated forms suffer a relatively slow irreversible oxidation to Co(III). From oxygen binding curves, approximate values of the equilibrium constants were calculated for the addition of oxygen to CoL²⁺ to form the -peroxo and the -peroxo-bishydroxo complexes. The enthalpies of formation of this latter complex starting from both Co²⁺ or CoL²⁺ have been obtained by means of calorimetric measurements. The effects of the size of the macrocyclic ligand on the affinity and the enthalpy of oxygen binding have been considered.Presented at the sixth Italian meeting on Calorimetry and Thermal Analysis (AICAT) held in Naples, December 4–7, 1984.
