Thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions of pyridine and piperidine
Introduction
Thermophysical properties of liquids and liquid mixtures are needed for both fundamental and practical applications. Excess thermodynamic properties provide information on the interactions between molecules of the liquid mixtures and the liquid structure. Therefore the study of the connection between thermodynamics and other fields, particularly transport phenomena, mathematical modeling and kinetics, is encouraged in both Chemistry and Chemical Engineering.
The study of the thermodynamic properties of amines and their mixtures with water is of interest due to the common existence of amines in nature (nicotine, morphine, amphetamine, etc.) and their applications in chemical processes. In this context both piperidine and pyridine are used in variety applications especially as solvents and reagents in organic synthesis [1], [2], [3].
Afzal et al. [4] recently published a very excellent and comprehensive study of the density and excess volume of piperidine–water mixtures over a wide range of temperatures. Negative volumes of mixing are reported in this work. However no comparable studies have been reported on the excess enthalpy of mixing. In this paper excess enthalpies of mixing are reported for both piperidine–water and pyridine–water mixtures. The density and excess volumes of mixing as a function of temperature over the entire concentration range are also investigated for both mixtures. The density measurements on piperidine–water mixtures provide a comparison with the previous work of Afzal et al. [4] that is a valuable check on our techniques. The results are interpreted in terms of the hydrogen bonding interactions between the unlike molecules and the very open tetrahedrally hydrogen bonded water structure in pure liquid water. The interpretations include discussions of the similarities and differences between piperidine and pyridine, piperidine being the aliphatic analogue of pyridine which adds a hydrogen to the amine nitrogen. This hydrogen provides opportunity for an additional hydrogen bonding interaction between piperidine and water.

Experimental
Pyridine and piperidine were purchased from Aldrich with a purity of 99.8% and 99%, respectively. The chemicals were used without further purification. Deionized water with a 99.99% purity was used in the experiments. The excess enthalpies of mixing, denoted as HE were measured with a Parr 6755 Constant Pressure Solution Calorimeter. Water and the amine of interest were titrated, using 50-mL burettes, into separate containers. The lesser volume was contained in a rotating sample cell whereas
Calorimetric studies
The enthalpy of mixing is calculated from the temperature rise, ΔT, measured in the solution calorimeter experiment using the equation,where ΔHm is the enthalpy change for the mixing process, q is the heat absorbed or released upon mixing, and C is the heat capacity of the calorimeter and its contents. The value of C is calculated using the relationwhere n1 and n2 represent the moles of the respective components and , and are the heat capacities of the
Conclusions
The excess molar enthalpy HE and excess molar volumes of both piperidine–water and pyridine–water mixtures are negative reaching their minimum 0.55 mole fraction of water. The minimum value of HE for piperidine–water mixtures is −2.23 kJ/mol and −1.63 kJ/mol for pyridine–water mixtures. The minimum values for of piperidine–water mixtures (−1.7 cm3/mol) are more than twice the magnitude for those for pyridine–water mixtures (−0.7 cm3/mol).

2021, Chemical Data CollectionsCitation Excerpt :Liquids with their provenance, purification, analysis methods, initial as well as final mass fraction purities with water content are specified in Table 1. Purity of the liquids was assessed by comparing ρ, u of liquids [26-48] with literature data. ρ, u of binary/ternary mixtures were measured by vibrating tube density, speed of sound analyzer (Anton Paar, DSA-5000) at 3 MHz in a manner as described earlier [49,50].

2021, Journal of Molecular LiquidsCitation Excerpt :Thermodynamic data of liquid mixtures are utilized for testing thermodynamic models/theories, which in turn may provide various parameters that could be utilized for industrial applications. Piperidine is used as solvent (due to its mild basic properties) in the field of biochemistry and industrial processes [9,10]. Piperidine and 1-methylpiperidine are also structural elements of many pharmaceutical drugs [11,12].

[5] Recently, we reported our results on thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions of unsubstituted pyridine and piperidine at three different temperatures. [6] We have now extended these studies to two structural isomers of pyridine and piperidine methanols to evaluate the effect of the primary alcohol functional group on the inter/intramolecular and additional hydrophilic interactions.
