Thermodynamic Parameters of the Dissolution of 4-Hydroxy-L-Proline and L-Phenylalanine in Mixed Aqueous Solvents at 298 K

Resumo

The enthalpies of solution of 4-hydroxy-L-proline and L-phenylalanine in binary mixed aqueous solvents containing acetonitrile (AN), 1,4-dioxane (1,4-DO), or acetone (AC) at mole fractions of 0 to 0.25 are determined at T = 298.15 K via isothermal calorimetry. The standard enthalpies of solution (Δ_solH°) and transfer (Δ_trH°) of 4-hydroxy-L-proline and L-phenylalanine from water to mixed aqueous solvents are calculated using the experimental calorimetric data, as are the enthalpy coefficients of paired interactions (h_xy) between the molecules of the investigated amino acids and the organic solvents. The effects the mixed aqueous solvent composition and the structure of the organic solvent molecules have on the enthalpies of solution and transfer for the investigated amino acids are considered. The correlation between the enthalpy of solution of the amino acids and the electron-donating properties of the organic solvents in the mixed aqueous solvent systems is established.
