Abstract
The standard molar enthalpies and heat capacities of dissolution of pharmacologically promising trimethylethylglycoluril (TriMEGU) and triethylmethylglycoluril (TriEMGU) in ordinary (H2O) and heavy (D2O) water were determined calorimetrically at T = (288.15, 298.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K and ambient pressure. The corresponding solvent D2O–H2O isotope effects (IEs) in these quantities were estimated. The enthalpic effects of TriMEGU dissolution () in the aqueous medium experience a negative-to-positive sign inversion at (296.15–297.15) K. The same goes for the IE in , with the only difference being that such an inversion occurs at ca. 308.15 K. In turn, for TriEMGU, both the values in water H/D isotopologues and the corresponding IEs were found to be negative up to ∼315.15 K. The hydration behavior of each of bicyclic solutes under study was discussed in comparison with that for the related chiral dimethyldiethylglycoluril (trans-DMDEGU, being the tranquilizer albicar) using the results of previously performed calorimetric experiments. It is established that the temperature-dependent balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic forces in the process of a solute hydration is determined not only by the number of bulkier alkyl substituents in the molecule of the racemic tetraalkylated glycoluril-derivative, but also by the stereochemical peculiarities of their N-locations.
期刊介绍:
The journal includes papers in the following areas:
– Simple organic liquids and mixtures
– Ionic liquids
– Surfactant solutions (including micelles and vesicles) and liquid interfaces
– Colloidal solutions and nanoparticles
– Thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals
– Ferrofluids
– Water, aqueous solutions and other hydrogen-bonded liquids
– Lubricants, polymer solutions and melts
– Molten metals and salts
– Phase transitions and critical phenomena in liquids and confined fluids
– Self assembly in complex liquids.– Biomolecules in solution
The emphasis is on the molecular (or microscopic) understanding of particular liquids or liquid systems, especially concerning structure, dynamics and intermolecular forces. The experimental techniques used may include:
– Conventional spectroscopy (mid-IR and far-IR, Raman, NMR, etc.)
– Non-linear optics and time resolved spectroscopy (psec, fsec, asec, ISRS, etc.)
– Light scattering (Rayleigh, Brillouin, PCS, etc.)
– Dielectric relaxation
– X-ray and neutron scattering and diffraction.
Experimental studies, computer simulations (MD or MC) and analytical theory will be considered for publication; papers just reporting experimental results that do not contribute to the understanding of the fundamentals of molecular and ionic liquids will not be accepted. Only papers of a non-routine nature and advancing the field will be considered for publication.
