ABSTRACT: Liquid−liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for the ternary (water + (±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane) system were obtained experimentally at T = 298.2, 318.2, and 333.2 K, respectively, and atmospheric pressure by gas chromatography for the first time. The binodal curve data at 333.2 K was determined using the cloud point method. The system exhibits two-liquid-phase-coexisting at 333.2 K while it presented the state of three two-liquid-phase-coexisting regions and one three-liquid-phase-coexisting region in the triangle phase diagram at 298.2 and 318.2 K. Separation factor was calculated to evaluate the extraction efficiency of this system. Correlation of the experimental tie lines was conducted through the use of the NTRL and UNIQUAC equation, which provides good correlation of the experimental data.

1. INTRODUCTION Recently, (±)α-phenylethylamine and its derivatives, as drug intermediates for industrial asymmetric synthesis, have been widely used in pharmaceutical, emulsifier, and dyestuff industry.1−4 Because of the powerful chiral adjuvant, they can be applied as chiral solvating agents and ligands in asymmetric catalysts synthesis.5−9 (±)α-Phenylethylamine is obtained mainly from the reaction of acetophenone and ammonium formate, namely Leuckart reaction, which is the most common method in industry.10 In general, the alkali aqueous solution would reduce the yield of (±)α-phenylethylamine because parts of the target product are dissolved in water.10−12 It is urgent to design a suitable method to separate water and (±)α-phenylethylamine and hence improve its yield. Considering the similar separation effect, extraction is a more simple method when compared with distillation. Recently, a number of works have been devoted to the development of liquid−liquid extraction for the separation of complex mixtures.13−17 In addition, the phase equilibrium data of the system ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) can be measured by gas chromatography to test the reliability of the existing activity coefficient models. To the best of our knowledge, the liquid−liquid equilibrium data of the ternary (water + (±)α-phenylethylamine + nhexane) systems have not been reported in literatures. In this work, three different temperatures (298.2, 318.2, and 333.2 K) were chosen to observe the change of equilibrium phase compositions. The liquid−liquid equilibrium data at corresponding temperature were determined by the method of static balance, then the data were correlated using the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) and universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) model. In order to evaluate the extracting capability of the © XXXX American Chemical Society

selected solvent, distribution coefficients and separation factors were experimentally determined from the tie line data. Transformation temperature from three-liquid-phase-coexisting to two-liquid-phase-coexisting was also determined. According to the liquid−liquid equilibrium data under the experimental temperature, the triangular phase diagrams of ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) system were drawn and analyzed.

2. EXPERIMENTAL SECTION 2.1. Material. In this work, n-hexane was purchased from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co. (±)α-Phenylethylamine was purchased from Alfa Aesar. Deionized water was prepared in our laboratory, and the measured resistivity was 10.6 MΩ·cm (UPE-1000L,YOUPU). The mass purities were both greater than 0.99 after purification. Purities of all the materials were determined by a gas chromatography (GC) equipped with a thermal conductivity detector and no impurity peaks were detected. The water and n-hexane were used without further purification. The detailed information about the materials is listed in Table 1. 2.2. Apparatus and Procedure. LLE data for the studied ternary system were measured at 298.2, 318.2, and 333.2 K, respectively, under atmospheric pressure. The experiment was performed in a glass cell with a magnetic stirrer. A jacket around inner cell has an inlet and an outlet to pass though the water (heating and cooling the mixture) from a super thermostat. A known proportion of the mixture was presented Received: December 26, 2016 Accepted: May 11, 2017

by weighing using an electronic balance (AX124ZH produced by Ohaus, a corporation of American). Solubility data of the ternary systems were determined by cloud point method:18−20 the homogeneous mixture solution of (±)α-phenylethylamine and n-hexane with known composition was placed in glass cell, and then the water was added drop by drop under stirring until a transition of the mixture solution from homogeneous to heterogeneous was observed. The titration end point was determined ultimately by repeating the above process three times. The mass of the added reagent was weighed by the electronic balance using decrement method, and accuracy of the electronic balance was 0.0001 g. Solubility values of the ternary ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) system are listed in Tables 2, 3, and 4 and the corresponding solubility curve is showed as red solid line in Figures 1 and 2.

A 1 μL lower phase (water-rich phase) sample was taken every time by a micro injector without containing the other two phases so that there was no need to supplement materials. The sample was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC-7890B), with a SE-30 (2 m × 3 mm) packed column, and a thermal conductivity detector (TCD), manufactured by Agilent Technologies Inc. Analysis conditions were shown as following: the temperature of injector was 483.2 K, the oven was 383.2 K, and the detector was 483.2 K, flow rate of carrier gas (hydrogen) was 40 mL/min, the chromatographic column pressure was 0.06 MPa, and the injection volume was 1 μL.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1. Experimental Data and Separation Factors. Experimental LLE tie-line data for the ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) ternary system were measured at 333.2, 318.2, and 298.2 K, respectively, and the results were listed in Tables 5, 6, and 7. At 333.2 K, the system exhibits only one two-liquid-phase-coexisting in the triangle phase diagram, as shown in Figure 1. This result indicates that the (±)αphenylethylamine mainly dissolves in n-hexane-rich phase. Different separation factors were obtained as the different mass fraction of (±)α-phenylethylamine. Separation factor (S) and distribution coefficients (D) (as shown in Table 5) were the important elements to evaluate extraction agent,21 defined as follows: w1, e D= w1, r (1)

w1,e/w1,r w3,e/w3,r

(2)

The w1,e and w1,r were the mass fractions of (±)α-phenylethylamine in extract phase and raffinate phase, respectively. The w3,e and w3,r represent water in extract phase and raffinate phase, respectively. Two-liquid-phase-coexisting is changed into three-liquidphase-coexisting when the temperature decreases from 333.2 to 331.2 K. While the system exhibits one three-liquid-phasecoexisting region and three two-liquid-phase-coexisting regions in triangle phase diagram at both 318.2 and 298.2 K. The corresponding triangular phase diagrams for the ternary system are plotted in Figure 2, which shows that the mass fraction of (±)α-phenylethylamine in middle layer ((±)α-phenylethylamine-rich phase) is higher than the other two phases. The mass fraction of (±)α-phenylethylamine in n-hexane-rich phase increases when the temperature increases from 298.2 to 318.2 C

K. Judging from the three phase diagrams (Figures 1 and 2), the region of the two-liquid-phase-coexisting becomes larger with the increase of temperature, while the region of the threeliquid-phase-coexisting section becomes smaller, the composition difference between n-hexane-rich phase and (±)αphenylethylamine-rich phase would be decreased. In this experiment, two boundaries between three different phases could be observed while the temperature is lower than 333.2 K. The boundary existing between n-hexane-rich phase and (±)αphenylethylamine-rich phase would disappear and the two phases would merge into one phase ultimately when the temperature reached 331.2 K. 3.2. Data Correlation. The experimental LLE data for system ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) is correlated by using NRTL and UNIQUAC models.22−25 The activity coefficient for NRTL model is calculated by the following equations:

CONCLUSIONS The binodal curve data and precise tie-line data for the ternary mixtures ((±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane + water) were obtained at T = 298.2, 318.2, and 333.2 K and atmospheric pressure. The system presents three two-liquid-phase-coexisting sections and one three-liquid-phase-coexisting section in the triangle phase diagram while the temperature is lower than 331.2 K.

Figure 3. Ternary phase diagram for (water + (±)α-phenylethylamine + n-hexane) system at T = 333.2 K and P = 0.1 MPa. Experimental tie line value (■, black solid lines), calculated tie line value by NRTL model; (○, blue solid line).

increasing temperature. Consequently, low temperature is favorable for separation (±)α-phenylethylamine from water. All experimental data were well correlated with the NRTL (α = 0.3) and UNIQUAC model, as can be seen by comparing the experimental and the fitted data in the ternary diagrams under investigation. The separation factors and distribution coefficients of the system were calculated to determine the best condition of separating (±)α-phenylethylamine from water. The experimental data obtained in this work is advantageous to studying the separating (±)α-phenylethylamine from water. The mass fraction of (±)α-phenylethylamine in water-rich phase was less than 0.01, which confirms that n-hexane has potential as an extracting agent.
