Abstract

The dielectric constant (εm) of binary mixtures of acetylacetone (HAA) with aliphatic alcohols viz. 1-pentanol, 1-butanol, 1-propanol has been measured at temperature 303.16 K and frequency 455 kHz. The data of dielectric constant are used to compute mutual correlation factor (gab), excess molar polarization (ΔP) and excess free energy of mixing (ΔGab) to study the molecular interaction. The study reveals that interaction is maximum for HAA + pentanol system and microheterogeneous β-clusters with antiparallel orientation of dissimilar molecules predominate in it.
