In an equilibrium vessel, the solubility of diphenyl carbonate (DPC) in alkanols was measured in the temperature range of 283−338 K, using a method in which an excess amount of solute was equilibrated with the alkanol solution. The liquid concentrations of the investigated DPC in the saturated solution were analyzed by spectrophotometry. The solubility data have been correlated as functions of the temperature. Activity coefficients for DPC have been calculated by means of the Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC equations and, with them, were correlated solubility data that were compared with the experimental data. The best correlation of the solubility data has been obtained by the Wilson equation, by which the average root-mean-square deviation of temperature for the seven systems is 1.72 K.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
