Measured enthalpies of solution of n-Bu NBr at 5°, 25°, and 55°C in mixtures of DMF and water are compared with those of other tetraalkylammonium bromides, rubidium chloride, and urea, reported earlier. For the latter salts, the enthalpies of solution in the mixtures are almost proportional to the mole fraction of water, but for n-Bu NBr a large endothermic maxi mum occurs. From this profile it appears to be possible, using a simple hydration model, to calculate both the number of water molecules which surround a hydrophobic alkyl group and the enthalpic effect of the hydrophobic hydration. The latter effect appears to diminish strongly with increasing tem perature, whereas the number of water molecules involved to the hydrophobic hydration changes very little with tempera ture. 4

T h e enthalpies of solution of the larger tetr a a l k y l a m m o n i u m halides i n water are more exothermic than those of the corresponding alkali halides but i n other solvents, e.g., several amides, propylene carbonate (PC), and dimethylsulfoxide ( D M S O ) , the reverse is true. Generally, this phenomenon is attributed to a n enhanced h y d r o g e n b o n d i n g i n the h i g h l y structured solvent water i n the v i c i n i t y of the t e t r a a l k y l a m m o n i u m ions (hydrophobic hydration) (J).
