ABSTRACT: By using the method of dynamic laser, the solubilities of succinic acid and glutaric acid in ε-caprolactone + acetic acid mixtures and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures were determined under atmospheric pressure. The experimental temperature ranged from 293.35 to 340.65 K, and the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in the solvent mixtures ranged from 0.0 to 1.0, respectively. It was found that with the increase of the temperature at constant concentration, the measured solubilities of succinic acid and glutaric acid in ε-caprolactone + acetic acid mixtures and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures would increase. Moreover, when the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in ε-caprolactone + acetic acid mixtures increases at the same temperature, the measured solubilities of succinic acid and glutaric acid would decrease. However, it would increase as the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone increases for the system of ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone at the same temperature. The experimental data were correlated by using the modified nonrandom two liquid activity coefficient model. The maximum value of average relative deviation was 1.50%.

1. INTRODUCTION ε-Caprolactone is widely used as an intermediate in degradable material, environmental protection, and medical fields.1−3 It is usually produced by the oxidation of cyclohexanone in peroxyacid by typical Baeyer−Villiger oxidation.4,5 For this method ε-caprolactone is the major product, acetic acid (HAc), adipic acid (AA), glutaric acid (GA), and succinic acid (SA) are the unfavorable byproducts.6 Therefore, to obtain ε-caprolactone with a high purity, it is necessary to crystallize the AA, GA, and SA from ε-caprolactone + HAc + cyclohexanone mixtures. Sequentially, the solid−liquid equilibria (SLE) of AA, GA, and SA in ε-caprolactone + HAc + cyclohexanone mixtures are indispensable to design the process and optimize the separation conditions. According to the literature reported, the solubility of AA in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixtures, ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures and HAc + cyclohexanone mixtures has been measured.7,8 The solubility of GA in various solvent systems such as HAc, cyclohexanone, cyclohexanol, HAc + cyclohexanone mixtures, cyclohexane + cyclohexanol mixtures, cyclohexane + cyclohexanone mixtures, cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol mixtures, and cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone + cyclohexane mixtures has been studied also.7,9−11 The solubility of SA in various solvent systems © XXXX American Chemical Society

The binary and ternary SLE for the systems of SA, urea, and diethylene glycol was determinated by Li.12 Mahali studied the solubility of SA in pure water and in different composition of binary mixtures of water and ethanol solvents mixtures.13 The SLE for the ternary SA + AA + ethanol system was determined by Li.14 The solubility of SA in various mass fractions of the AA + GA + acetone mixture were measured by Wang.15 Li researched the solubility of SA in GA + acetone mixtures and GA + n-butanol mixtures.16 The solubility of SA in HAc + water mixtures and HAc + cyclohexane was measured by Lei.17 Jiang investigated the solubility of SA in binary aqueous solution of methanol + water and ethanol + water,18 and the solubility of SA in binary aqueous ethanol solvents also were measured by Hu.19 Fan determined the SLE of SA in cyclohexanone, cyclohexanol, and their mixed solvents.20 Solubilities of SA, GA, and AA in dimethyl adipate + methanol mixtures were determined by Luo.21 Liao measured the solubility of SA and AA in GA + cyclohexanone and GA + HAc mixtures.22 In addition, Received: July 18, 2017 Accepted: December 12, 2017

solubility determination in the references.16,20,23,24 As shown in Figure 1, the experimental apparatus consists of a SLE unit, a laser-detecting system, a temperature-controlling and monitoring unit, and a magnetic stirring system. It was described in detail in our previous work.7,8 Briefly, the experiment was carried out in a 100 mL glass bottle with a magnetic stirrer and a jacket linked to a thermostatic water-circulator bath. A thermoelectric controlling system with an uncertainty of 0.14 K was used to determine and control the temperature of the solution continuously. To prevent effectively the evaporation of ε-caprolactone, HAc, cyclohexanone, and other ingredients, the bottle was sealed by the reflux condenser with a rubber stopper. The laser-detecting system mainly contained a semiconductor laser emitter of 25 mW, a photoelectric transformer, and a computer equipped with the Kingview software that was applied to display and record the realtime temperature and laser intensity value. In each experiment, excess amounts of SA or GA and 50 g of solvent were carefully added into the SLE bottle, under continuous stirring to ensure the presence of the solute particles in the solution. Second, the thermostatic water-circulator bath was turned on and the equilibrium bottle was heated in a stepwise fashion (1.5 K·h−1) until the SA was going to dissolve. Near the SLE temperature (more than 1 K below), the temperature of the solution increase was less than 0.2 K·h−1. Meanwhile, a steady laser beam went through the solute and solvent mixtures continuously, the unsolved solute particle would block the laser beam and weaken the intensities of transmitted laser. When the solute particle disappeared exactly, the intensities of transmitted laser would reach the maximum. Just then, the SLE would be achieved and the corresponding solution temperature was the saturated dissolving temperature. Moreover, the saturated mole fraction solubility of SA or GA could be calculated as follows:

the solubility of SA was studied in some pure solvents, such as ethanol, HAc, acetone, ethyl acetate, N,N-dimethylformamid, N,N-dimethyllacetamide, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, water, 1-propanol, 2-propanol.10,23,24 Unfortunately, satisfactory experimental equilibrium data for SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc + cyclohexanone solvent mixtures is lacking for the particular conditions of temperature and composition required in a particular program. Hence, it is essential to measure and correlate the solubilities of SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc + cyclohexanone solvent mixtures. When suitable data are lacking, the desired equilibrium data could be estimated from some appropriate correlation by interpolating or extrapolating these SLE data. In this work, the solubilities of SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixtures and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures at (293.35 to 340.65) K are measured, and the modified NRTL activity coefficient model was applied to correlate the experimental values. The binary interaction parameters of the modified NRTL equation for SA and ε-caprolactone, SA and HAc, SA + cyclohexanone, GA and ε-caprolactone, GA and HAc, and GA + cyclohexanone are obtained.

While with increasing of mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in the solvent mixtures at constant temperature, the solubility of GA would decrease for the system of ε-caprolactone + HAc. As shown in Figure 9, as the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in the ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures increases at constant temperature, the solubility of GA would increase.

Comparing the solubilities of SA and GA with the solubility of AA in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixtures and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures from the literature,8 the variation trends with temperature were same. As the temperature increases the solubilities of SA, GA, and AA both would increase, which illustrates the dissoluting process were endothermic.

ε-caprolactone that the solubilities of SA, GA, and AA reached the minimum value. And with decreasing concentration of ε-caprolactone in the mixed solvent, the solubilities of SA, GA, and AA would increase gradually. Additionally, at constant solvent composition the solubilities of GA are greater than SA and AA. For the ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures, the solubilities of SA, GA, and AA both increase as the concentration of ε-caprolactone in the mixed solvent increases gradually. Similarly, under the same condition the solubilities of GA are greater than SA and AA. 3.3. Correlation of Experimental Data. Modif ied NRTL Equation. As a function of T, the modified Apelblat and the λh equations could correlate the experimental solubilities satisfactorily within the investigated temperature range, but it was difficult to extrapolate it from the empirical correlations under several given compositions of the mixture. The modified NRTL equation could do this well. Thermodynamically, the equation used to correlate the solubility is based on the equality between compositions of chemical potentials of the coexisting phases. Without considering the solid−solid phase transition, the SLE could be given by eq 2 which involves the mole fusion enthalpy ΔmH and melting temperature Tm of the solute. ln(γixi) = −

4. CONCLUSIONS By using the method of dynamic laser, the solubilities of SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixture and in ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures were determined under atmospheric pressure within (293.35 to 340.65) K. We can make some conclusions as follows: (1) At constant solvent composition, the solubilities of SA and GA would increase with the temperature increasing for the investigated solvent mixtures. (2) At constant temperature, with the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixtures increasing, the solubilities of SA and GA decrease gradually. When the mass fraction of ε-caprolactone in ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures increases, the solubilities of SA and GA increase gradually. (3) The modified NRTL equation was used to correlate the experimental data, and the ARD was less than 1.50%, which indicated they could calculate satisfactorily the solubilities of SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures, respectively. (4) The binary interaction parameters of the modified NRTL equation for SA and ε-caprolactone, SA and HAc, SA + cyclohexanone, GA and ε-caprolactone, GA and HAc, and GA + cyclohexanone and the ARD could be found in this work.

SA+ cyclohexanone, GA and ε-caprolactone, GA and HAc, GA+ cyclohexanone, and the ARD could be found. From Figures 6 to 9, a well-correlated result clearly shows that the modified NRTL activity coefficient model could be used to simulate the solubilities of SA and GA in ε-caprolactone + HAc mixtures and ε-caprolactone + cyclohexanone mixtures.

In eq 2, R is the gas constant that is 8.314 J·mol ·K , T represents the absolute temperature. ΔmH is the mole fusion enthalpy of SA and GA, which is 32950 J·mol−1 and 20900 J·mol−1 respectively.7,20 Similarly, Tm is 460.15 K and 371.15 K for SA and GA, which could be found in the literature.7,20 According to eq 2, for calculation the solubility xi, the NRTL activity coefficient model calculated γi was employed as eqs 3 and 4.25 In eq 2, the activity coefficient depended on the mole fraction xi and temperature, thus eqs 2 and 4 would be solved iteratively. ∑ j = 1 τjixjGji
