ABSTRACT: Mathematical representations reported by Li et al. for a number of cosolvency models are carefully examined concerning the models’ abilities to predict the solubility of maltitol in binary aqueous mixtures of methanol and ethanol at various temperatures. Some further recommendations on computational methods are also provided to be employed in the future research works. Preferential solvation of the solution was also investigated to provide better understanding of the dissolution process.

S4 of the published paper by Li and co-workers,1 when substituted into eq 1 give calculated values of ln xA that significantly exceed unity for the solubilities of maltitol in neat ethanol. Mole fraction solubilities cannot exceed unity. There are clearly problems in using the authors’ tabulated equation coefficients pertaining to eq 1 to make solubility predictions in the alcohol-rich solvent region. The reason for why the authors’ calculated equation coefficients fail to predict maltitol solubility in ethanol arises because Li et al. did not possibly include the solubility data for maltitol in neat organic cosolvents in their regression analysis. This would be a serious curve-fitting mistake. The calculations according to eq 1 were repeated for solubility of maltitol in ethanol + water mixtures at T = 298.15 K by including the monosolvent data and without these data points, and the obtained models are

n a recent paper appearing in This Journal Li and coworkers1 reported the solubility of maltitol in water, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, ethanol, and 2-propanol and in two binary aqueous mixtures of methanol and ethanol at various temperatures. In the case of the two binary aqueousalcoholic solvent mixtures experimental measurements were performed at seven temperatures and at nine mixture compositions including both cosolvents. The authors correlated the mole fraction solubility data of maltitol in the binary solvent mixtures in terms of a polynomial equation derived from previously reported cosolvency models2 ln xA = B0 + B1x Bo + B2 (x Bo)2 + B3(x Bo)3 + B4 (x Bo)4

Numerical values of Bi are obtained by regression analysis by curve-fitting the experimental mole fraction solubility data in accordance with eq 1. The purpose of this report is to point out several serious flaws in the authors’ computation of the various Bi curve-fit parameters. The numerical values of the curve-fit equation coefficients do not provide a satisfactory representation of the mole fraction solubilities of maltitol in the two neat organic cosolvents. For example, as shown in the eighth column of Table 1 of this manuscript, the equation coefficients from Table © XXXX American Chemical Society

in which, there is no agreement between our computations with those reported by Li et al. One should consider that the solubility pattern in ethanol + water looks slightly unusual when comparing with the previously observed patterns. In eqs 3 and 4, the model constants with a p value >0.1 were excluded from the model. The predicted ln xA in ethanol at 298.15 K was −9.98 against 60.01 of Li et al.1 We curve-fit the experimental solubility data for maltitol dissolved in ethanol (B) + water (C) mixtures at various temperatures in accordance with eq 1, and the equation Received: February 22, 2017 Accepted: May 5, 2017

coefficients were obtained by including the solubility data in the two monosolvents. We list in Table 1 the equation coefficients that we obtained. The p values for the B3 and B4 coefficients were more than 0.1, therefore these coefficients were not able to improve the prediction capability of the model. The SSPS statistical software eliminated the (xoB)3 and (xoB)4 terms from the regression analysis. The solubility of maltitol in binary ethanol + water mixtures at various temperatures was mathematically described using eq 2, and the obtained model constants along with the %ARDs were listed in Table 2 of this manuscript.

.Our previous observations showed that significant contributions of a number of A terms of eq 15 are questionable. In addition, the reported model constants in Table 5S resulted in nonacceptable predictions.

between the experimental and calculated values is still much larger than would be expected. In another recent work from the same research group4 similar computations were employed for solubility of L-histidine in binary solvent mixtures, which needs further attention. In addition, the measured solubility4 was not in the full composition range of the binary solvents which could produce less accurate results as discussed in a recent work.5 To provide more accurate and more acceptable predictions, we recommend to use the original versions of the Jouyban− Acree model and its combined version with the van’t Hoff equation. The original version of the Jouyban−Acree model is6 ln xA, T = x Bo ln(xA )B, T + xCo ln(xA )C, T +

which is able to predict the solubility of maltitol at other solvent compositions of ethanol + water mixtures at various temperatures with the %ARD of 18.7%. Mathematical correlations that describe how the solute solubility varies with solvent composition can be used to examine the preferential solvation by the solvent components around the dissolved solute molecules. The preferential solvation parameter of maltitol (compound A) by the cosolvent (compound B) in the cosolvent (B) + water (C) mixtures is defined as13,14

where, xLB,A is the local mole fraction of cosolvent (B) in the environment near to the maltitol molecules. The solute is preferentially solvated by cosolvent (B) whenever the numerical value of δxB,A is greater than zero. If this parameter is negative maltitol is preferentially solvated by water (C). Numerical values of δxB,A are determined from the inverse Kirkwood-Buff integrals (IKBI) for the individual solvent components as shown in eqs 25 and 26

where κT is the isothermal compressibility of the solvent mixtures (expressed in units of GPa−1), VB and VC are the partial molar volumes of the cosolvent (B) and water (C), respectively, and VA is the partial molar volume of maltitol. The function D is the derivative of the standard molar Gibbs energies of transfer of maltitol (A) from neat water (C) to the cosolvent (B) + water (C) mixtures, with respect to the mole fraction of cosolvent (B) in the mixtures. The second terms in the function Q contains the second derivative of the excess molar Gibbs energy of mixing of the two solvents with respect to the mole fraction of water (C) in the mixtures:

which back-calculates the solubility data with the %ARD of 13.1%. Equation 22 is able to predict the solubility of maltitol in all possible solvent compositions of ethanol + water mixtures at various temperatures including in neat ethanol and water without the requirement of any further experimental data, whereas eq 21 requires the solubility of maltitol in the monosolvents at each temperature of interest. It is also possible to train eq 20 employing a minimum number of experimental data, and then predict the rest of data points using the trained model. Our earlier results9−12 showed that the solubility data in xoB of 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7 provided the most reliable J values. Owing to the linear nature of the van’t Hoff equation, two data points in each monosolvent could be used to compute α and β terms of the equation. Therefore, we employed solubility data of maltitol in xoB of 0.2811, 0.4771, and 0.7787 (closest values to the above-mentioned fractions), and xoB of 0.0 and 1.0 at 298.15

The determination coefficients (r ) were 0.9991 (eq 33) and 0.9976 (eq 34), for methanol (B) + water (C) and ethanol (B) + water (C) mixtures, respectively. The D values reported in Tables 3 and 4 were calculated from the first derivative of the polynomial models, solved according to the cosolvent proportions. The values of Q, RTκT, VB and VC of methanol (B) + water (C), and ethanol (B) + water (C) mixtures were taken from the literature.14,16 The molar volume of maltitol (A) was calculated as 203.73 cm3 mol−1 from the molar mass and reported density (1.69 g cm−3). The solute radius value (rA) was calculated to be 0.432 nm. The correlation volume was iterated three times by using eqs 24, 29, and 30 to obtain the values reported in Tables 3 and 4. The last columns of these tables list the preferential solvation parameters of maltitol by both cosolvents (component 1), δxB,A. The values of δxB,A vary nonlinearly with the alcohol proportion in these aqueous mixtures (Tables 3 and 4, Figure 2). In water-rich mixtures, the addition of methanol to water makes positive the δxB,A values of maltitol from pure water to

The models are commonly used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. In the past two years there have been several incorrect applications5,20−26 of the models that have led to calculated mole fraction solubilities that have exceeded unity in one or both of the monosolvents used to prepare the binary solvent mixture. Several of the incorrect applications20,21,23 have involved solubility studies in which the authors performed experimental measurements in a very narrow range of binary solvent composition. To prevent future occurrences we suggest that if possible research groups using the Combined NIBS/R-K and Jouyban−Acree models should perform solubility measurements over the entire range of binary solvent composition, including both monosolvents. Moreover, we recommend that researchers quickly check for possible errors in the regressed equation coefficients by calculating the solute solubility in both monosolvents at all temperatures studied. If the calculated solubilities exceed unity then there are problems with the calculated equation coefficients or experimental design. Mathematical correlations should be reported only if the correlations have predictive ability over the entire range of solvent composition, including both monosolvents.

Nevertheless, these δxB,A values could not be attributed to preferential solvation effects by the alcohols because they are lower than 1.00 × 10−2, and thus, they could be due to uncertainties propagation in the IKBI calculations.17,18 Otherwise, from these alcohol proportions up to neat alcohols, the δxB,A values are negative, and hence, maltitol is preferentially solvated by water in alcohol-rich mixtures in both cosolvent systems. Moreover, the magnitude of preferential solvation by water is clearly higher in ethanolic mixtures regarding those with methanol. In this way, maltitol could act as a Lewis base due to the free electron pairs in the oxygen atoms of its hydroxyl and cyclic ether groups to interact with the acidic hydrogen atoms of water. This is because water is more acidic than both alcohols as described by their Kamlet−Taft hydrogen-bond donor parameters, that is, α = 1.17, 0.98, and
