Abstract
In this study, the gravimetric method was applied to
measure the
solubility of 4-isopropylbenzoic acid in 12 pure solvents (2-methoxyethanol,
2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol, 2-butoxyethanol, methyl acetate,
ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, butyl acetate, isobutyl
acetate, acetonitrile, and N,N-dimethylformamide
(DMF)) at the temperature range of 278.15–323.15 K under atmospheric
pressure. The experimental results showed that the solubility of 4-isopropylbenzoic
acid had a significant positive correlation with temperature, and
the mole fraction solubility (x) order of 4-isopropylbenzoic
acid at the temperature of 298.15 K was: DMF (0.4498) > 2-propoxyethanol
(0.2474) > 2-butoxyethanol (0.2382) ≈ 2-ethoxyethanol (0.2371)
> 2-methoxyethanol (0.2242) > ethyl acetate (0.1801) > methyl
acetate
(0.1461) > isobutyl acetate (0.1391) > propyl acetate (0.1231)
≈
butyl acetate (0.1202) > isopropyl acetate (0.1114) > acetonitrile
(0.02216). The experimental solubility data correlated well with calculated
ones from the modified Apelblat equation, the van’t Hoff equation,
and the Yaws equation. Based on the principle of similar compatibility,
the law of solubility and miscibility of 4-isopropylbenzoic acid in
pure solvents were discussed through Hansen solubility parameters
and solvent effects for predicting solubility behavior.
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.
