IUPAC-NIST Solubility Data Series. 98. Solubility of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Pure and Organic Solvent Mixtures: Revised and Updated. Part 2. Ternary Solvent Mixtures

Abstract

This work updates Vols. 54, 58, and 59 in the IUPAC Solubility Data Series and presents solubility data for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon solutes dissolved in ternary organic solvent mixtures. Published solubility data for anthracene, phenanthrene, and pyrene that appeared in the primary literature between 1995 to the end of 2011 are compiled and critically evaluated. Experimental solubility data for 119 different solute-ternary solvent systems are included in the volume. Solubility data published prior to 1995 were contained in three earlier volumes (Vols. 54, 58, and 59) and are not repeated here.

Studies on the Solubility of Terephthalic Acid in Ionic Liquids

“…Among all tested solvents the best solubility of PTA was observed in DMSO (20 g of PTA per 100 g DMSO at 25 • C). PTA is also soluble in N-methyl-2-pyrolidone and dimethylamine, but the solubility at 90 • C is two times lower than in DMSO [3]. In general, the solubility of PTA in organic solvents is low and slowly increases with increasing temperature.…”

“…Terephthalic acid is poorly soluble in organic solvents (Table 1) [1,3]. Among all tested solvents the best solubility of PTA was observed in DMSO (20 g of PTA per 100 g DMSO at 25 • C).…”

Abraham model ion-specific equation coefficients for the 1-butyl-2,3-dimethyimidazolium and 4-cyano-1-butylpyridinium cations calculated from measured gas-to-liquid partition coefficient data

“…Our contributions in the area of solvent selection has been to develop solution models that enable prediction of the solubility of crystalline non-electrolyte solutes in binary [17][18][19][20][21] and ternary [22][23][24][25][26][27][28] solvent mixtures based on the Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent Model and Abraham model correlations that enable estimation of the logarithm of gas-to-organic solvent partition coefficients (log K) and logarithm of water-to-organic solvent partition coefficients (log P) in both traditional and anhydrous IL organic solvents. Abraham model correlations have been reported for well over 100 total different tradition organic solvents [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] and IL organic solvents, [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61] as well as for binary aqu...…”
