2-Metoxyethanol-Acetonitrile Binary Mixtures and Their Physicochemical Properties

Abstract

Densities (d ₁₂) and relative permittivities (Varepsilon₁₂) have been measured for 2-metoxyethanol (ME) and acetonitrile (ACN) binary liquid mixtures over their whole compositions ranges at various temperatures ranging from 288.15K to 308.15K. The experimental data were used to test some empirical equations of the type: y ₁₂=y ₁₂(t) and y ₁₂=y ₁₂(X ₁) (where: y ₁₂-d ₁₂ or Varepsilon₁₂). From all these data, the excess molar volumes (V ^E _m), temperature coefficients of relative permittivities (α₁₂) and the excess extrathernmodynamic parameters Varepsilon^E were calculated. The ¹H-NMR spectra of liquid binary mixtures of ME and ACN, were recorded at 298 K over almost the whole range of the mixed solvent compositions. From these data the values of the values of the spectral structural parameters were found, Δδ(ME-ACN). The values of these structural parameters are discussed in terms of interactions of 2-metoxyethanol with acetonitrile.
