Solvation thermodynamics of L-cystine, L-tyrosine, and L-leucine in aqueous-electrolyte media

Аннотация

Solubilities of L-cystine, L-tyrosine, and L-leucine in aqueous NaCl media at 298.15 K have been studied. Indispensable and related solvent parameters such as molar mass, molar volume, etc., were also determined. The results are used to evaluate the standard transfer Gibbs free energy, cavity forming enthalpy of transfer, cavity forming transfer Gibbs free energy and dipole-dipole interaction effects during the course of solvation. Various weak interactions involving solute–solvent or solvent–solvent molecules were characterized in order to find their role on the solvation of these amino acids.
