RESUMEN
A complete chemical analysis of significant intermolecular interactions of l-Valine (L-Val) and l-Phenylalanine (L-Phe) with Mephenesin (MEPN) molecules in aqueous solution has been studied by different physicochemical methodologies at various temperatures (T = 298.15 K-313.15 K at an interval of 5 K) and concentrations (0.001 mol kg-1, 0.003 mol kg-1, 0.005 mol kg-1) of aqueous MEPN solution. The limiting apparent molar volume (φV0) and experimental slope (SV*) values are found from the equation of Masson, viscosity A and B-coefficient determined using the equation of Jones-Doles, molar refraction (RM) and limiting molar refraction (RM0) derived by the Lorentz-Lorenz equation, express that in our experimental solution of amino acids (AAs) in aqueous MEPN, the solute-solvent interaction predominates over the solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions for these ternary solutions. These are also justified by the measurement of various thermodynamic parameters, free energy of activation of viscous flow per mole of solvent(Δµ1°#) and solute (Δµ2°#), activation of viscous flow of enthalpies (ΔH°#) and entropies (ΔS°#). The characteristics of structure-breaking of solutes in the aqueous drug solution have been identified by Hepler's method and dB/dT value. The spectroscopic methods like UV-visible and proton-NMR studies help to explicate the strong AA-MEPN interactions in the solution phase and obtain a good correlation with theoretical studies. Theoretical investigations are checked to authenticate the experimental observations and according to both studies, L-Phe-MEPN interaction is greater than L-Val-MEPN interaction. The experimental and correlated research data are useful for the development of model combinations of AAs with drug molecules in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry.
RESUMEN
Here, we have investigated some physicochemical parameters to understand the molecular interactions by means of density (ρ) measurement, measurement of viscosity (η), refractive index(n D) measurement, and conductance and surface tension measurements between two significant aqueous ionic liquid solutions: benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (BTMAC) and benzyl triethyl ammonium chloride (BTEAC) in an aqueous l-methionine (amino acid) solution. The apparent molar volume (Φv), coefficient of viscosity (B), and molar refraction (R M) have been used to analyze the molecular interaction behavior associated in the solution at various concentrations and various temperatures. With the help of some important equations such as the Masson equation, the Jones-Doles equation, and the Lorentz-Lorenz equation, very significant parameters, namely, limiting apparent molar volumes (Φv 0 ), coefficient of viscosity (B), and limiting molar refraction (R M 0), respectively, are obtained. These parameters along with specific conductance (κ) and surface tension (σ) are very much helpful to reveal the solute-solvent interactions by varying the concentration of solute molecules and temperature in the solution. Analyses of Δµ1 0#, Δµ2 0#, TΔS 2 0#, ΔH 2 0#, and thermodynamic data provide us valuable information about the interactions. We note that l-Met in 0.005 molality BTEAC ionic liquid at 308.15 K shows maximum solute-solvent interaction, while l-Met in 0.001 molality BTMAC aqueous solution of ionic liquid at 298.15 K shows the minimum one. Spectroscopic techniques such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), 1H-NMR, and UV-vis also provide supportive information about the interactions between the ionic liquid and l-methionine in aqueous medium. Furthermore, adsorption energy, reduced density gradient (RDG), and molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) maps obtained by the application of density functional theory (DFT) have been used to determine the type of interactions, which are concordant with the experimental observations.
