Solubility Measurement and the Correlation of 1‑Naphthaleneacetic Acid in Pure and Methanol + Water Binary Solvents from T = (278.25 to 323.55) K Yu Zhang, Song Wei, Hui-Hui Wang, Jin-Qiang Liu,* and Weizhou Wang College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering and Henan Key Laboratory of Function-Oriented Porous Materials, Luoyang Normal University, Luoyang 471934, China ABSTRACT: The solubilities of 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) have been measured by the synthetic method in 10 pure organic solvents including methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, toluene, acetone, acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane, 1,2dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, and tetrahydrofuran and binary methanol + water mixtures from (278.25 to 323.55) K under atmospheric pressure. The modified Apelblat equation, λh equation, and Wilson equation were employed to correlate the solubility data. Furthermore, the solubility of NAA in a binary solvent mixture was regressed with a combined nearly ideal binary solvent/ Redlich−Kister (CNIBS/R−K) equation and the hybrid equation. According to the calculations based on these equations, the modified Apelblat equation gave the best correlation results with the experimental data in all selected solvents.

a moderately lipophilic weak acid (log P = 2.24),11 and its solubility was measured in several pure solvents at different temperatures including water, 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane, carbon tetrachloride, and xylene.12−14 In mixed solvents, the solubility data of NAA in 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane/ethanol systems at 298.15 K is available.13 Another literature reported the solubility of NAA in supercritical CO2 with ethanol, acetone, and cyclohexane as cosolvents in the pressure range of 10.0 to 30.0 MPa at 308.15 and 328.15 K, respectively.15 These studies indicated that the solubility of NAA increases not only with increasing temperature and pressure but also with increasing polarity of cosolvents. It is well known that the solubility of NAA in water is too low (420 mg·L−1 at 293.15 K).12 To optimize biological activity, NAA must be applied in combination with other chemicals to aid solubility, wetting, and handling in the spraying solution.16 Therefore, to give a clear view of the solubility varying with some cosolvents containing water, it is necessary to obtain the experimental solubility data of NAA in widely used pure organic solvents in a certain temperature range. The objective of this study was to determine the solubility of NAA in various pure organic solvents and in binary solvents using the synthetic method at atmospheric pressure. First, the solubility of NAA was measured in methanol, ethanol, 2propanol, toluene, acetone, acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane, 1,2dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, and tetrahydrofuran within the temperature range of 278.25−323.55 K at atmosphere pressure. On the basis of the above experimental results, an effective

1. INTRODUCTION Auxins are plant hormones that function as key regulators in a number of plant development processes including apical dominance, abscission, root formation, tropistic curvature, leaf senescence, and fruit ripening.1 As a synthetic auxin, 1naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA, C12H10O2, molecular weight 186.21 g·mol−1, CAS registry no. 86-87-3, shown in Figure 1) is

a naphthalene derivative that is widely used as a plant growth regulator in agriculture to the prevent premature dropping of fruit.2,3 It is also applied in combination with other chemicals as a thinning fruit agent. In addition, NAA is used as a fungicide on fruit and as a rooting promoter on germination;4 nevertheless, chemically pure NAA is an important intermediate in medicinal synthesis.5,6 In industry, NAA is mainly obtained by crystallization from a suitable solution, which not only can affect the final yield but also can affect the quality of the final product.7 On the other hand, trace amounts of NAA in soil, fruits, and underground water may be expected to arise from farming operations. The potential toxicity of NAA in mammals and birds has raised the need for effective solvents to help its determination in varied analytical methods for real samples.8−10 Therefore, the reliable solubility of NAA in pure solvent and in mixed solvents is needed for the crystallization and separation processes.

applied without further treatment. All of the information about the materials used in this article is collected in Table 1. 2.2. Apparatus and Procedure. The solubility of NAA was measured by the synthetic method with a laser monitoring observation system described in the literature.17−20 The experiment was carried out in a 100 mL jacketed, magnetically stirred vessel using a mercury-in-glass thermometer (type WLB, China) with an uncertainty of ±0.01 K to monitor the temperature. The circulating water from a water bath (type CS501, China) was applied to maintain a constant temperature (±0.05 K), and a condenser was used to keep the solvents from evaporating. The mass of the solute and solvents was weighed with an analytical balance (type Sartorius BS210S, Germany) with an uncertainty of ±0.0001 g. During the experiments, the dissolution of the solute was examined by the laser beam penetrating the glass vessel. At the beginning, a certain amount of solvent was added to the vessel. Then, 3 to 5 mg of solute was added to the vessel at a constant temperature. The addition of solute was repeated until the last addition was not totally dissolved in 5 h. The strength of the laser beam penetrating the vessel was lower than the highest value. The amount of solvent and every addition of solute were recorded. Then, the

solvent of NAA as a cosolvent is determined. Second, the solubility of measurements of NAA in water + cosolvent mixtures were performed at temperature ranging from (298.15 to 319.15) K. The effects of the mass fraction of cosolvent in binary solvent mixtures at (0.5 to 1.00) on the solubilities were investigated. The modified Apelblat equation, λh equation, Wilson equation, and CNIBS/R-K equation and the hybrid model were applied to correlate the resultant data.

2. EXPERIMENTAL SECTION 2.1. Materials. NAA was supplied by Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co. Ltd. of China with purity greater than 0.99 mass faction, which was determined with HPLC. The melting point and the enthalpy of fusion were obtained using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC Q2000, TA) at a heating rate of 10 K·min−1 from 313.15 to 453.15 K. Standard indium was used to calibrate the DSC instrument before the measurement. The melting temperature of indium was 429.7 K (as determined by at least 10 measurements). The thermal analysis results are shown in Figure 2. All of the organic solvents were purchased from Tianjin Wind Ship Chemical Co. Ltd. of China. The mass fractions of the solvents were all higher than 0.995 and were B

Generally, the negligible difference between the triple point and normal melting point makes it suitable to replace ΔfusHtp and Ttp by the enthalpy of melting ΔfusHm and the melting point Tm. Furthermore, the last two terms containing ΔCp and ΔV are the correction of the heat capacity and the pressure difference, which are often minor and also negligible. Therefore, eq 6 can be simplified as

The mole fraction solubility of NAA in different pure organic solvents was calculated using eq 1, whereas that in water + methanol mixtures over a certain temperatures range at atmospheric pressure was computed on the basis of eq 2.

In eq 8, x2 is the mole fraction of the selected solvent. In eq 9, Δλ12 (= λ12 − λ11) and Δλ21 (= λ21 − λ22) are two binary cross-interaction parameters that are independent of composition and temperature and v1 and v2 represent the molar volumes of solute and pure solvent, respectively. The values of v2 are obtained from the literature. 3.4. Combined Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent/Redlich− Kister (CNIBS/R−K) Model. The CNIBS/R−K model was also employed to fit the experimental data and describe the influence of binary solvent compositions on NAA solubility.

To use eq 7, a thermodynamic model is demanded to represent the activity coefficients as a function of temperature and composition at constant pressure. In this article, the Wilson equation, a local composition model initially proposed by Wilson, was used to derive γ1, which can be expressed as eq 8 in a binary system

and 15.041 × 10−2 at 321.45 K) varies more obviously than that in others organic solvents, which shows its potential advantages in the recrystallization of NAA. In addition, according to the experimental data, tetrahydronfuran, 1,4-dioxane, acetone, methanol, and ethyl acetate are good solvents for NAA. Considering the miscibility of an organic solvent with water, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, acetone, and methanol are potential cosolvents for NAA. As we know, methanol is the cheapest one among these solvents. In the next section, we reported the solubility data of NAA in a methanol + water mixture. The measurement of the solubility of NAA in tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, and acetone with water is still going on in our laboratory, and the data will be published in due time. 4.2.2. Solubility of NAA in Methanol + Water Mixtures. The solubility data of NAA in different methanol + water mixed solvents at temperature ranging from 298.15 to 319.15 K are listed in Table 3 and graphically in Figure 4, corresponding to the mass fraction of methanol (ω2) in mixtures prepared in varying intervals of 0.05 from 0.5 to 0.95.

4. RESULTS AND DISSCUSSION 4.1. Melting Point and Enthalpy of Fusion. As shown in Figure 2, the melting point of NAA is 403.06 K, and the enthalpy of fusion of NAA is 21.47 kJ·mol−1, which is in agreement with the literature.12 The melting point measured was a little lower than the literature value,12 which might be due to the purity and the measurement apparatus. 4.2. Experimental Solubility Data. 4.2.1. Solubilities of NAA in Pure Solvents. Using the synthetic method, the solubilities of NAA in 10 pure organic solvents including methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, toluene, acetone, acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane, 1,2-dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, and tetrahydrofuran were measured within the temperature range of (278.25 to 323.55) K, and the experimental solubility data are presented in Table 2. Figure 3 is plotted to show the results. From Table

Solubility of NAA in binary methanol + water solvent mixtures: ■, ω2 = 95%; ●, ω2 = 90%; ▲, ω2 = 85%; ▼, ω2 = 80%; ◆, ω2 = 75%; ◀, ω2 = 70%; ▶, ω2 = 65%; ★, ω2 = 60%; +, ω2 = 55%; and ×, ω2 = 50%; Lines are drawn according to calculated values with the modified Apelblat equation. Figure 3. Solubility of NAA in 10 selected pure organic solvents: ■, methanol; ●, ethanol; ▲, 2-propanol; ▼, toluene; ◆, acetone; ◀, acetonitrile; ▶, 1,4-dioxane; +, 1,2-dichloroethane; ×, ethyl acetate; and *, tetrahydrofuran. Lines are drawn according to calculated values with the modified Apelblat equation.

From Table 3 and Figure 4, the conclusion can be drawn that the solubility of NAA increases with increasing temperature and decreases with the mole fraction of water in the solvent mixtures at constant temperature. In addition, at the same temperature the solubility of NAA in the mixed solvents is lower than in pure methanol. As we know, the factors that influence solubility include intermolecular interactions of the solution molecules and the physicochemical properties of the solute and solvents. In the present study, the studied system is composed of water + methanol and NAA. NAA is a lipophilic compound, and methanol has a high polarity. Thus, on the basis of the general rule “like dissolves like”, the solubility behavior of NAA in mixed solvents can be explained by the fact that methanol can associate with water more strongly by forming hydrogen bonds than with NAA, which weakens the solubility of NAA in methanol. 4.3. Data Correlation. 4.3.1. Solubility Data in Pure Solvents. The modified Apelblat model, λh model, and Wilson equation were used to correct the experimental solubility values

2 and Figure 3, it can be seen that the solubility data of NAA in 10 selected organic solvents are increased with the increase in temperature, and at room temperature, the maximum was observed in tetrahydrofuran and the minimum was observed in 2-propanol. The solubility of NAA in 10 pure solvents follows the order 2-propanol < toluene < ethanol < acetonitrile
