Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have great potential as an efficient alternative to current separation and purification procedures of a large variety of solvent mixtures—a critical process in many applications. Due to the huge number of existing MOFs, it is of key importance to identify high-throughput analytical tools, which can be used for their screening and performance ranking. In this context, the present work introduces a simple, fast, and inexpensive approach by compact low-field proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxometry to investigate the efficiency of MOF materials for the separation of a binary solvent mixture. The mass proportions of two solvents within a particular solvent mixture can be quantified before and after separation with the help of a priori established correlation curves relating the effective transverse relaxation times T2eff and the mass proportions of the two solvents. The new method is applied to test the separation efficiency of powdered UiO-66(Zr) for various solvent mixtures, including linear and cyclic alkanes and benzene derivate, under static conditions at room temperature. Its reliability is demonstrated by comparison with results from 1H liquid-state NMR spectroscopy.

Herein, a rapid approach toward the size/morphology-controlled synthesis of [Cu(L-mal)(bipy)·2H2O] (CuLBH) was developed by adjusting the concentration of 2-methylimidazole (2-MI) and copper ions. The chiral separation efficiency test indicated that...

Abstract Crystallization of the drug entacapone from binary solvent mixtures was monitored in situ using a Raman optical probe. The recorded Raman spectra and statistical analysis, which included the principal components method and indirect hard modeling made it possible to estimate the starting point of crystallization, to assess crystallization temperatures and to provide information on the polymorphic content of the mixture. It was established that crystallization temperatures were proportional to the volume content of the solvent in mixtures. The samples were also evaluated off-line via Raman spectroscopy and SWAXS. The collected data showed the presence of forms b and g in all solvent mixtures. In a toluene/methanol 30:70 mixture, in addition to forms b and g, at least one of the forms A, D or a was also indicated by SWAXS. The results have shown that the presence of a particular polymorph is strongly dependent on the nature and portion of the solvent in the binary solvent mixture.

Abstract The single-liquid approximation has been applied to the data of Bristow on ternary systems containing benzene and cyclohexane with one of the rubbers, natural, SBR, or butyl. Satisfactory fits are obtained with a constant value of the interaction constant between the two solvents χ12 which differs markedly, however, from the value obtained by measurements on the binary solvent mixture.

Two 4-tolyl-1,2,4-triazol-1-ium methylids, namely 4-tolyl-1,2,4-triazol-1-ium-phenacylid and 4-tolyl-1,2,4-triazol-1-ium-4′-nitro-phenacylid, are studied from solvatochromic point of view in binary solvent mixtures of water with ethanol and water with methanol. The contributions (expressed in percent) of the universal and specific interactions are separated from the spectral shifts recorded in the visible range for each composition of the binary solvent mixture. The essential role of the orientation and induction interactions in the studied solutions was demonstrated. Based on the statistic cell model of the binary solvent mixture solutions, the difference between the formation energies of ylid-water and ylid-alcohol complexes is estimated. The composition of the ylid’s first solvation shell was also established using the model of the binary solvent mixture solutions. The results obtained from the statistical cell model were compared with those obtained by using the Suppan’s model, resulting a good agreement.

AbstractThe excessive application of organophosphate pesticides (OPPs) in crop fields close to hives and its application in beekeeping practices are potential sources of contamination of propolis. Pesticides were extracted from raw propolis by matrix solid-phase dispersion. Because of the complex chemical composition of propolis, binary solvent mixtures based on acetonitrile and a relatively non-polar solvent in different proportions were tested for the selective elution of OPPs. The effect of mixed solvents on clean-up was evaluated by GC-MS and the main interfering compounds co-eluted with pesticides were identified. In addition, three volumes of the solvent mixture and the volume of the sample were evaluated in an experimental factorial design. The final experimental conditions were 1 mL of dissolved propolis and 8 mL of acetonitrile/dichloromethane (g4 r = 25: 75). Mean recoveries ranged from 55 % to 96 % (relative standard deviation < 8 %) with an inter-day precision lower than 24 %. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of real samples obtained from local beekeepers.

In this work we report solvatochromism studies on o-nitroaniline and several N-alkyl-o-nitroaniline derivatives used as solutes in solvent mixtures of an "inert" nonpolar cosolvent, cyclohexane, and THF as a solvent with hydrogen bond acceptor ability. These studies allowed us to establish the competition between inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bond in solutes. This was done by comparing the magnitude of the local inhomogeneity induced by the solute-in-solvent mixture, that is, "preferential solvation," using Suppan's dielectric enrichment model as modified by us to be applied to electronic transitions. Since preferential solvation accounts for dielectric as well as specific interactions while dielectric enrichment only for the former, it was shown by comparison that it is possible to separate both effects and even quantify them. It was deduced that N-alkyl-o-nitroanilines form a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond, which remains unbroken even in polar solvents and hydrogen bond acceptors such as dimethyl sulfoxide. This was also confirmed by solvatochromic studies in pure solvents. On the other hand, a symmetrical dependence of the effects of alkyl substituents and solvents on the shifts of the absorption spectra was observed.
