Densities, ?, viscosities, ? and refractive indices, n D, of solutions of some amino acids (glycine, DL-alanine, DL-? -amino- n-butyric acid, L-valine and L-leucine) in the concentration range 0.02 to 0.10 m in 5 % (v/v) aqueous glycerol were determined at 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 and 313.15 K. These experimental data were used to calculate the apparent molar volumes, ? v, the infinite dilution apparent molar volumes, ? v 0, the partial molar volumes of transfer, ? v 0 (tr), of the amino acids from aqueous to aqueous glycerol solution, as well as the viscosity A and B coefficients of the Jones-Dole equation of the amino acids. The free energies of activation of viscous flow, ??1 0# and ?? 2 0# per mole of solvent and solute, respectively, were obtained by application of the transition-state theory to the B coefficient data and the corresponding activation enthalpy, ?H*, and entropy, ?S*, were also determined. The ? v 0, B coefficients and ?? 2 0# were found to vary linearly with increasing number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain of the amino acids, and they were split into contributions from the zwitterionic end groups (NH3 +, COO-) and methylene (CH2) groups of the amino acids. The experimental values of the refractive indices, n D, were used to calculate the molar refractive indices, R D, of the amino acids + aqueous glycerol ternary mixtures. The results were interpreted in the light of the solute-solvent and solute-solute interactions in the mixed solvents.

The thermodynamics of amino acid systems are key to the understanding of protein chemistry. We have found that many previous studies of the apparent molar volumes and heat capacities of aqueous solutions of amino acids were conducted at the standard temperature of 298.15 K. This does not allow for the fact that most biological processes occur at temperatures removed from this standard condition.In an attempt to address this imbalance we have measured densities and heat capacities for aqueous solutions of glycine, L-alanine, L-serine, and L-threonine at 288.15, 298.15, 313.15, and 328.15 K using a Picker flow microcalorimeter. Apparent molar volumes and heat capacities, and the associated standard state partial molar properties have been calculated. Constant pressure variations of revised Helgeson, Kirkham, and Flowers equations have been fitted to calculated standard state volumes and heat capacities over the temperature range 288.15 to 328.15 K. These equations may be used to estimate standard state volumes and heat capacities, and hence equilibrium constants, for aqueous amino acid systems at higher temperatures.

The relative viscosities and densities of glycine in 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% w/w acetonitrile–water mixtures at 25, 30, 35, and 40 °C and of DL-alanine in water, 5%, 15%, and 20% w/w acetonitrile water mixtures at 30 and 40 °C have been determined. The viscosity B coefficients have been found to increase with increase in concentration of acetonitrile and also with the increase of temperature in both cases.The limiting apparent molar volumes and limiting value of effective flow volumes have also been calculated.

Densities of glycine, L-alanine, and L-serine have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter at 298.15 K in water + ethanol (EtOH) mixtures ranging from pure water to 45% ethanol by mass. From these densities, apparent molar volumes and limiting apparent molar volumes of the three amino acids in the mixtures have been calculated. Transfer volumes are interpreted in terms of the structure-making or structure-breaking effects of water on addition of these amino acids in the mixtures. The relative contributions of hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions in these solutions have been inferred.Key words: glycine, L-alanine, L-serine, water + ethanol mixtures, densities.
