Apparent molar volumes of dilute aqueous solutions of monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA), ethylethanolamine (EAE), 2-diethylethanolamine (2-DEEA), and 3-methoxypropylamine (3-MPA) and their salts were measured at temperatures from 150 to 325 degrees C and pressures as high as 15 MPa. The results were corrected for the ionization and used to obtain the standard partial molar volumes, Vo2. A three-parameter equation of state was used to describe the temperature and pressure dependence of the standard partial molar volumes. The fitting parameters were successfully divided into functional group contributions at all temperatures to obtain the standard partial molar volume contributions. Including literature results for alcohols, carboxylic acids, and hydroxycarboxylic acids yielded the standard partial molar volume contributions of the functional groups >CH-, >CH2, -CH3, -OH, -COOH, -O-, -->N, >NH, -NH2, -COO-Na+, -NH3+Cl-, >NH2+Cl-, and -->NH+Cl- over the range (150 degrees C

Apparent molar volumes have been determined using a high-pressure vibrating-tube densimeter for aqueous solutions of glycolic acid (HGly = HOCH(2)COOH) and tartaric acid (H(2)Tar = HOOCCH(OH)CH(OH)COOH) at temperatures from 25 degrees C to 350 degrees C and pressures as high as 20 MPa. The resulting standard partial molar volumes (HGly,aq) are relatively independent of temperature until 315 degrees C, at which point (HGly,aq) deviates sharply toward negative values. This suggests that the Krichevskii parameter, A(Kr) = lim(x(2) --> 0) , which describes the discontinuities in standard partial molar properties at the critical point of water, is negative. Almost all aqueous nonelectrolytes are characterized by positive Krichevskii parameters. This is the first negative value reported for any organic molecule that is not an ion or zwitterion and only the third ever observed directly for a neutral species (the others are B(OH)(3) and H(3)PO(4)). The standard partial molar volumes for H(2)Tar(aq) are also relatively independent of temperature until 275 degrees C, suggesting a similar behavior. However, the onset of thermal decomposition prevented measurements at temperatures above 300 degrees C.
