Abstract
Fmoc-l-glutamic acid, as a derivative of glutamic acid, exhibits prominent applicability in biochemical science and medicinal chemistry. In order to improve the relevant database, this study used the static gravimetric method to determine the solubility of Fmoc-l-glutamic acid in 14 single solvents (including methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, isopropanol, n-pentanol, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, dimethyl carbonate, acetone, 2-butanone, and acetonitrile) within the temperature range of 283.15–323.15 K. The experimental data reveal that the dissolution capability of Fmoc-l-glutamic acid is enhanced as the temperature rises in all investigated solvent systems. By combining molecular electrostatic potential surface (MEPS) analysis and interaction energy calculation, this work elucidated the intermolecular interaction mechanism of Fmoc-l-glutamic acid with solvents. Research has confirmed that solvent polarity (ET(30)), hydrogen bonding, and cohesive energy density mainly affect the solvation behavior. In addition, the solubility of Fmoc-l-glutamic acid in 14 single solvents was evaluated using Hansen solubility parameters (HSPs) and interaction region indicator (IRI). By comparing the solubility behavior of Fmoc-l-glutamic acid and l-glutamic acid 5-methyl ester, the solubility of structurally similar substances in the same solvent was explored.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data is a monthly journal devoted to the publication of data obtained from both experiment and computation, which are viewed as complementary. It is the only American Chemical Society journal primarily concerned with articles containing data on the phase behavior and the physical, thermodynamic, and transport properties of well-defined materials, including complex mixtures of known compositions. While environmental and biological samples are of interest, their compositions must be known and reproducible. As a result, adsorption on natural product materials does not generally fit within the scope of Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data.
