Abstract
The integral enthalpies of solution of L-methionine in water-methanol, water-ethanol, water-n-propanol, and water-iso-propanol mixtures were measured calorimetrically at alcohol concentrations x 2 = 0–0.4 mole fractions. The standard enthalpies of solution (Δsol H o) and transfer of L-methionine (Δtr H o) from water to a binary solvent were calculated. The influence of the structure and properties of L-methionine and the composition of aqueous-organic mixtures on its enthalpy characteristics was considered. The enthalpic pair interaction coefficients (h xy ) between L-methionine and alcohol molecules were calculated; they were positive and increased in the series methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH), n-propanol (n-PrOH), iso-propanol (i-PrOH). The enthalpy characteristics of solution and transfer of L-methionine were compared with those of glycine, L-threonine, L-alanine, and L-valine in similar binary solvents.
