Enthalpies of glycylglycinate ion transfer from water to a water–ethanol solvent

详细

The heat effects of mixing a sodium glycylglycinate water solution with a solvent containing from 0.0 to 0.8 mole fraction of ethanol are measured by means of calorimetry at 298.15 K. The enthalpies of sodium glycylglycinate and glycylglycinate ion transfer from water to water–ethanol solutions of different compositions are calculated. The increase of the concentration of nonaqueous component in solution leads to higher endothermicity of glycylglycinate ion transfer, resulting in weaker solvation. The contribution from the enthalpy of glycylglycinate ion resolvation to the heat effects of its complexation reactions with transition metal ions is assessed.
