Solute-solvent interactions of acid-1,4-dioxane mixtures-By dielectric, FTIR, UV-vis and 13C NMR spectrometric methods.
Results of the dielectric studies carried out on the binary mixture of n-butyric and caprylic acids with 1,4-dioxane over the entire composition range and at temperatures 303K, 308K, 313K and 318K, and FTIR, UV-vis and 13C NMR spectral studies are presented in this paper. The excess permittivity and excess free energy were fitted with the Redlich-Kister polynomial. The variation of Kirkwood correlation factors, excess permittivity and excess free energy of mixing with the concentration and temperature has been investigated in view of understanding the ordering of dipoles of solute and solvent molecules. The FTIR, UV-vis and 13C NMR spectral analysis reveals the formation of complex between solute and solvent molecules. The parallel alignment of electric dipoles of the complex predicted by dielectric studies is well supported by UV-vis spectral analysis. The structure of the complex molecule present in the clusters has been deduced.
