| By means of the saturation shake-flask technique, the saturation
solubility data of 3,3′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone in 14 monosolvents (n-propanol,
N,N-dimethylformamide, methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, cyclohexane,
acetonitrile, isopropanol, water, n-butanol, ethyl acetate, 1,4-dioxane, isobutanol,
and 1-heptanol) was achieved at temperatures from 283.15 to 328.15 K and
ambient pressure (p = 101.2 kPa). No phenomenon of crystalline form
transformation or solvation occurred after dissolution of 3,3′-diaminodiphenyl
sulfone in different solvents. The solubility values (mole fraction) of 3,3′-
diaminodiphenyl sulfone in above 14 solvents increased as the temperature
elevated and obeyed the decreasing tendency in different monosolvents as
follows: N,N-dimethylformamide > ethyl acetate > acetonitrile > ethylene glycol
> 1,4-dioxane > methanol > ethanol > isobutanol > n-propanol > n-butanol >
isopropanol > 1-heptanol > water > cyclohexane. The mutual miscibility of
solvent and 3,3′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone was explained through the threedimensional Hansen solubility parameter. Examination was carried out for molecular interactions between the solute−solvent and
solvent−solvent species by means of the linear solvation energy relationships. The solubility data obtained through experiments was
correlated by the use of four models/equations, namely, the NRTL model, Apelblat equation, λh equation, and Wilson model.
Correlation resulted in the maximum root-mean-square and relative average deviation values of, respectively, 397.1 × 10−5 and 7.57
× 10−2. The Apelblat equation gave lower relative average deviations than the other models/equations for a certain neat solvent. Also, the mixing thermodynamic properties, infinite-dilution activity coefficient, and reduced excess enthalpy were obtained in terms
of the Wilson model |
