Abstract
Experimental mole fraction solubilities are reported for acenaphthene, benzoin, salicylamide, o-acetoacetanisidide, benzoic acid, 4-chlorobenzoic acid, 3,4-dichlorobenzoic acid, 4-methoxybenzoic acid, 3,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid, 2-hydroxybenzoic acid, 2-methylbenzoic acid, 3-methylbenzoic acid and 4-nitrobenzoic acid dissolved in cyclopentanol at 298.15 K. Results of experimental measurements, combined with published solubility data and activity coefficient data taken from the published literature, were used to derive Abraham model correlations for solute transfer into anhydrous cyclopentanol solvent from both water and from the gas phase. The derived Abraham model correlations back-calculate the observed experimental data to within 0.11 log units (or less).
