UV-Vis spectroscopic studies of solute–solvent and solute–cosolvent interactions in supercritical carbon dioxide
Literature Information
The keto–enol tautomeric equilibria of ethyl acetoacetate in supercritical (SC) CO2 with and without ethanol cosolvent were investigated over the pressure range from 75.9 to 185 bar at 308.2 K using UV-Vis spectroscopy. In order to obtain the local densities of solvent and cosolvent about the solute, we correlated the standard Helmholtz free energy of the tautomerization with a solvent parameter based on the Onsager reaction field theory. In both SC CO2 and SC CO2–ethanol, the local density enhancement of CO2 in the vicinity of the solute is most remarkable at the reduced density close to unity. The highest degree of aggregation of cosolvent about the solute takes place at the lowest pressure investigated, which is slightly above the critical pressure. Moreover, the clustering of ethanol with the solute competes with that of CO2. In addition, the local concentration enhancement of ethanol was studied in the concentration range of 0 to 6 mol%. It was found that the local concentration of ethanol is enhanced significantly at lower cosolvent concentrations.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
