Solubility of Anthracene in Binary Alkane+2-Methyl-2-Propanol Solvent Mixtures at 298.2 K

IUPAC-NIST Solubility Data Series. 98. Solubility of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Pure and Organic Solvent Mixtures: Revised and Updated. Part 1. Binary Solvent Mixtures

“…Acree and co-workers [35][36][37][38] determined the solubility of anthracene in binary alkane + ethanol, alkane + 1-pentanol, alkane + 2-pentanol, alkane + 2-methyl-2-propanol, alkane + 2-methyl-2-butanol, and alkane + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol at 298.15 K. The alkane solvents included hexane, heptane, octane, cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, and tert-butylcyclohexane. Except for the ethanol + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane solvent system, there has only been a single experimental determination for the solubility of anthracene in each of the binary solvent systems studied.…”

IUPAC-NIST Solubility Data Series. 98. Solubility of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Pure and Organic Solvent Mixtures—Revised and Updated. Part 3. Neat Organic Solvents

“…58 appeared in print, there have been several experimental solubility studies involving anthracene dissolved in organic solvents. Acree and co-workers [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] have measured the solubility of anthracene in four linear alkanes (nonane through dodecane), in two dialkylbenzenes (1,2-dimethylbenzene and 1,3-dimethylbenzene), in several primary (methanol, ethanol, 1-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 2-methyl-1-pentanol, 1-heptanol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-decanol, 3,7-dimethyl-1-octanol, 1,2-ethanediol, and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol), three secondary (2-pentanol, 4-methyl-2-pentanol, and cyclopentanol) and one tertiary (2-methyl-2-propanol) alcohol(s), in four alkyl alkanoates (methyl ethanoate, propyl ethanoate, pentyl ethanoate, and methyl butanoate), in three ethers (2,2′-oxybispropane, 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane, and 1,1′-oxybis[2-methoxyethane]), in three chlorinated alkanes (dichloromethane, trichloromethane, and 1-chlorohexane) and three halogenated benzenes (chlorobenzene, fluorobenzene, and (trifluoromethyl)benzene), in five alkoxyalcohols (2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol, 2-isopropoxyethanol, 2-butoxyethanol, and 3-methoxy-1-butanol) and in several miscellaneous organic solvents (methyl acetoacetate, ethyl acetoacetate, ethanenitrile, propanenitrile, butanenitrile, benzonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, morpholine, ethanolamine, propylene carbonate, hexanedintitrile (also called adiponitrile) and tributyl phosphate). The authors measured the solubility at only 298.15 K, and for most of the solvents there are no independent experimental measurements to compare the numerical values against.…”

Thermodynamic Functions for Transfer of Anthracene from Water to (Water + Alcohol) Mixtures at 298.15 K

“…The solubility data and the thermodynamic properties including thermodynamic properties of transfer for a number of monoaromatics and their derivatives in organic/aqueous cosolvent mixtures, such as benzene, toluene, trimethylbenzene, , benzoic acid, − substituted benzoic acids, ,, phenylacetic acid, and p -nitroaniline, , are widely reported in the literature and our previous works. The solubility data and the thermodynamic properties of transfer for hydrophobic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compounds (PAHs) and their derivatives in organic/aqueous cosolvent mixtures have received little attention; especially, no such studies were conducted with respect to anthracene, although the solubilities of anthracene in some pure organic and binary and ternary organic solvents were reported, − and several solubility data in organic solvent/aqueous mixtures and thermodynamic properties of transfer in the water-rich region for naphthalene have been given in the literature. − In this paper, the solubility data of anthracene in (1 − x )water + ( x )ethanol and (1 − x )water + ( x ) tert -butyl alcohol are studied at four different temperatures, 298.15 K, 303.15 K, 308.15 K, and 313.15 K, respectively. Standard thermodynamic functions of transfer of anthracene from water to (1 − x )water + ( x )ethanol mixtures or to (1 − x )water + ( x ) tert -butyl alcohol mixtures at T = 298.15 K have been derived from solubility data.…”
