Method for Determining the Solubilities of Hydrophobic Organics in Subcritical Water

Miller, David J., Hawthorne, Steven B.·1998·Analytical Chemistry

Abstract

A rapid and simple method has been developed to determine the solubility of organic compounds in water at temperatures from 25 to 250 degrees C and with enough pressure to maintain the liquid state ("subcritical" water). Water is heated and then passed through a cell containing excess test solute. The water, now saturated with solute, is blended with chloroform, cooled, and collected, and the chloroform fraction is analyzed by gas chromatography. Replicate determinations have typical reproducibilities, indicated by the relative standard deviation, of < 5%. Solubilities at 25 degrees C determined by this method are in good agreement with published data. Increasing the temperature of water from 25 degrees C to near the normal melting point of the organic solute results in solubility enhancements ranging from 6-fold for naphthalene (at 65 vs 25 degrees C) to 130,000-fold for chlorothalonil (at 200 vs 25 degrees C).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
