Activity coefficients at infinite dilution and physicochemical properties for organic solutes and water in the ionic liquid 1-(2-methoxyethyl)-1-methylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-amide

Abstract

The activity coefficients at infinite dilution, γ∞ and gas–liquid partition coefficients, KL for 61 solutes: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, cycloalkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, thiophene, ethers, ketones, esters, 1-nitropropane, butanal, acetonitrile, and water in the ionic liquid 1-(2-methoxyethyl)-1-methylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-amide were determined by inverse gas chromatography at the temperatures from (318.15 to 368.15)K. The partial molar excess Gibbs free energies ΔG1E,∞, enthalpies ΔH1E,∞ and entropies ΔS1E,∞ at infinite dilution were calculated from the experimental γ∞ values obtained over the temperature range. The selectivities for selected compounds, which form azeotropic mixtures, were calculated from the γ∞ and compared to the literature values for other ionic liquids based on bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-amide anion.
