Solubility and Dissolution Thermodynamics of 1,1-Bis(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane (MeBZ) in Different Pure Organic Solvents in the Temperature Range from 299.15 to 328.15 K

Abstract: The solubility of 1,1-bis(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane (MeBZ) in different pure organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, acetone, 1,4-dioxane, ethylacetate, and tetrahydrofuran over a temperature range from 299.15 to 328.15 K at atmospheric pressure were measured by gravimetric method. The solubility increased significantly with increase in temperature in all studied solvents. Among the studied solvents, tetrahydrofuran showed the highest solubility at 328.15 K. The experimental solubilities were corelated with the modified Apelbalt equation and Buchowski–Ksiazczak (λh) equation.The thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpies of solution (ΔH°sol), Gibbs energy of dissolution (ΔG°sol), isobaric heat capacity(ΔC°p sol), and entropy of solutions (ΔS°sol) were calculated using Clark and Glew equation.

Study of Novel Symmetrical Liquid Crystalline Ester Dimers

A novel homologous series of 12 symmetrical dimers, viz. 1,1'-Bis[4-(4'-n-alkoxy benzoyloxy)-3-methyl phenyl] cyclohexanes is reported. Nematogenic mesophase commences from the heptyloxy homologue dimer and continues up to the hexadecyloxy dimer in an enantiotropic manner without the exhibition of any smectogenic behavior. The rest of the dimers from methoxy to hexyloxy are nonmesogenic. The textures of the nematic phase are threaded or Schlieren. The transition temperatures and textures of the nematic phase were determined by an optical polarizing microscope equipped with a heating stage. Curves (solid-isotropic/nematic and N-I) of a phase diagram showing mesomorphism behave in normal manner except for a minor deviation at the dodecyloxy derivative. The analytical and spectral data confirm the molecular structure of dimers. The nematogenic mesophase lengths vary between 3.3°C and 26.6°C. The average thermal stability for nematic is 108.26°C; series is partly nematogenic with middle ordered melting type and low degree of mesomorphism. Liquid crystal properties of novel dimer series are compared with the structurally similar other known series.

Synthesis, spectral study and antimicrobial screening of poly(4,4'-cyclohexylidene-R,R'-diphenylene diphosphate)

Polyphosphate of l.l-bisfR.RM-hydroxyphenyOcyclohexane (R,R"=H 1CH3and Cl) are synthesized by refluxing bisphenol-c derivative with phosphorous oxytrichloride in pyridiene at 95°C for 4hr and then at 240°C for 6hr. Polyphosphate have been ascertained by IR and NMR spectral data. Polyphosphate are also Characterized by their antibacterial and antifungal activities. The activity is interpreted in light of Wsphenol Structure and the nature of substituent(s).
