Self-association of acetic acid in some organic solvents

Abstract: The self-association of acetic acid in organic solvents at 25 °C has been investigated by infrared spectroscopy. The organic solvents used are n-hexane, carbon tetrachloride, toluene, benzene, chlorobenzene, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane, and dichloromethane. The spectra of the carbonyl region were fitted with four Lorentzian curves, two for acetic acid monomer and cyclic dimer and the other two for the linear dimer. The formation constants of the cyclic and linear species were determined over concentration r… Show more

“…The stoichiometry of the fast pre-equilibrium deprotonation is 1:1, which means that the concentration of acetic acid is as high as the initial concentration of precatalyst complex 92. However, as acetic acid mainly exists as a hydrogen-bonded dimer in dichloromethane solution, [143] as well as at least two new species. In the presence of the azide, the deprotonation reaction of the alkyne substrate will be greatly favoured as the acetylide complex K02E reacts with the azide in a fast and irreversible elementary step, so that the concentration of K02E is steadily kept low.…”

“…The formation of dimers is favored at increased acetic acid concentration. The selfassociation of acetic acid in some organic solvent has been studied by Fujii et al, 37 using FTIR spectroscopy and partition techniques. The FTIR peak assignment is not straight forward, as monomers and dimers are in constant equilibrium and most of the vibrations are coupled, but he proposed the following peak assignment for the carbonyl stretch: ϳ 1715 cm : terminal carbonyl.…”

“…Acetic acid will, therefore, enhance water solubility. Fujii et al 37 studied the partition of benzoic acid between an aqueous phase and an organic solvent immiscible with water. These authors hypothesized the formation of water-bridged benzoic acid dimers in the organic phase.…”

“…Homodimer formation has been observed for many different types of molecules, ranging from simple acetic acid [1] to highly complex proteins [2]. In particular, many kinds of proteins, such as the structural coat proteins of viruses [3,4], and functional enzymes, such as organophosphorous hydrolase [5], form homodimers.…”
