Abstract

Infinite dilution activity coefficients and gas-to-liquid partition coefficients are herein reported for more than 45 organic solutes of varying polarity and hydrogen-bonding character dissolved within the ether-grafted ionic liquids 1-ethyl-3-(2-methoxyethyl)imidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide and N-(2-methoxyethyl)pyridinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide. Experimental values were determined in 10 K intervals from 323.15 to 373.15 K using the method of inverse gas chromatography. Measured infinite dilution activity coefficients were then used to determine the partial molar excess Gibbs free energies, enthalpies, and entropies associated with the dissolution of these model solutes into these two short-chain glycol-grafted ionic liquids. Finally, based on the measured infinite dilution activity coefficient data, Abraham model correlations have been established for solute transfer into these ionic liquids, including the calculation of cation-specific equation coefficients. The derived Abraham model correlations were found to back-calculate the observed partition coefficients to within 0.09 to 0.13 log units.
