Solubility and Thermodynamic Properties of L-proline in Methanol-Dichloromethane Mixtures

摘要

The solubility of L-proline in binary solvents of methanol and dichloromethane were measured by a dynamic method via a laser monitoring technique. In the binary solvent mixtures, the solubility increases with the increasing of temperature and proportion of the methanol. The experimental solubility were fitted to modified Apelblat equation and Van't Hoff equation in this work can be used as essential data and models in the purification process of L-proline. The dissolving process is endothermic and the dissolution driving force converts from enthalpy-driving to entropy-driving.
