ABSTRACT This study reports the density (ρ), speed of sound (u), and viscosity (η) of N,N-dimethyl benzyl amine (DMBA) binary mixtures with propiophenone, p-methylacetophenone, and p-chloroacetophenone in a temperature range of 303.15–313.15 K for various compositions. Excess thermodynamic properties (excess molar volume, V E ; excess isentropic compressibility, κ s E ; viscosity deviation, Δη; and excess Gibbs free energy of activation of viscous flow, ΔG *E ) were derived from the experimental data. The analysis focused on understanding intermolecular interactions, particularly the influence of the inductive effect on hydrogen bonding and dipole–dipole interactions within the mixtures. The Jouyban-Acree model was employed to predict the densities, speeds of sound, and viscosities. The model’s accuracy was assessed using the mean relative deviations (MRDs) and individual relative deviations (IRDs) between the calculated and experimental values. To further support these findings, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was conducted to provide complementary insights into the intermolecular interactions within the mixtures.
