Abstract
In this work, we report the thermodynamic and ultrasonic properties of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in water and in presence of newly synthesized ammonium based protic ionic liquid (diethylethanolammonium propionate) as a function of concentration and temperature. Apparent molar volume and apparent molar isentropic compression, which characterize the solvation state of ascorbic acid (AA) in presence of protic ionic liquid (PIL) has been determined from precise density and speed of sound measurements at temperatures (293.15 to 328.15) K with 5 K interval. The strength of molecular interactions prevailing in ternary solutions has been discussed on the basis of infinite dilution partial molar volume and partial molar isentropic compression, corresponding volume of transfer and interaction coefficients. Result has been discussed in terms of solute-solute and solute-solvent interactions occurring between ascorbic acid and PIL in ternary solutions (AA + water + PIL).
Highlights
Ionic liquids (ILs) are molten salts with melting point below 100°C
In order to understand the molecular interactions occurring between ascorbic acid (AA) and PIL, we report the volumetric propertiesof AA in aqueous solutions of newly synthesized protic ionic liquid i.e. diethylethanolammonium propionate ([DEEA][Pro]) at different temperatures (293.15 to 328.15) K
The volumetric and compressiontransfer volumes (ΔtV2° and ΔtK°s,2) for AA in presence of diethylethanolammonium propionate ([DEEA][Pro]) were found to be positive, which increase with increase in concentration of [DEEA][Pro] and temperature
Summary
Ionic liquids (ILs) are molten salts with melting point below 100°C. The thermo-physical properties of ILs can be tuned by appropriate selection of cation and anion, as a result ILs can be made biocompatible and these are found to be very attractive in various analytical applications, in the fabrication of various modified electrodeswhichcan be used to extract chemicals or compounds (synthetic colors) from food samples. Reports are available [6,7,8,9,10,11,12]were ILs have been used for the extraction of Sudan and Para Red dyes from chilli powder employinghigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), showing potential application of ILs in food industries [10,11,13,14,15]. Ionic liquids have been proposed as an effective compound to be used in the formation of aqueous biphasic system (ABS)
