Toluene miscibility

Ethylene glycol has to be completely replaced by some toluene miscible substance, otherwise the gel slices start to shrink. The closely related Cellosolve, did not alone give gel slices as transparent as those obtained after additional treatment with alcohol (99.5%). This might be due to slower diffusion rates with Cellosolve. 

Because tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is virtuaHy colorless, it is used in lacquer formulations for aH colors as weU as water-white clear products. More speciftcaHy, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is a wetting dispersant for most pigments. It has a high boiling point, high toluene dilution ratio, and good miscibility with oils, eg, linseed and soya, and is an exceUent solvent for a wide range of resins. 

These aldehydes are miscible with most organic solvents, eg, acetone, ether, ethanol, and toluene, but are only slightly soluble ia water. Some a2eotropes of -butyraldehyde are given ia Table 2. 

AHyl chloride is a colorless Hquid with a disagreeable, pungent odor. Although miscible in typical compounds such as alcohol, chloroform, ether, acetone, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, heptane, toluene, and acetone, aHyl chloride is only slightly soluble in water (21—23). Other physical properties are given in Table 1. 

Physical properties of some commercially available polyamines appear in Table 1. Generally, they are slightly to moderately viscous, water-soluble Hquids with mild to strong ammoniacal odors. Although completely soluble in water initially, hydrates may form with time, particularly with the heavy ethyleneamines (TETA, TEPA, PEHA, and higher polyamines), to the point that gels may form or the total solution may soHdify under ambient conditions. The amines are also completely miscible with alcohols, acetone, benzene, toluene and ethyl ether, but only slightly soluble in heptane. 

Bonhote and co-workers [10] reported that ILs containing triflate, perfluorocar-boxylate, and bistrifylimide anions were miscible with liquids of medium to high dielectric constant (e), including short-chain alcohols, ketones, dichloromethane, and THF, while being immiscible with low dielectric constant materials such as alkanes, dioxane, toluene, and diethyl ether. It was noted that ethyl acetate (e = 6.04) is miscible with the less-polar bistrifylimide and triflate ILs, and only partially miscible with more polar ILs containing carboxylate anions. Brennecke [15] has described miscibility measurements for a series of organic solvents with ILs with complementary results based on bulk properties. 

The cationic nature of the copper(I) catalyst means that it is immobilized in the ionic liquid. This permits the PMMA product to be obtained, with negligible copper contamination, by a simple extraction procedure with toluene (in which the ionic liquid is not miscible) as the solvent. The ionic liquid/catalyst solution was subsequently reused. 

V si sol in w and toluene approaches miscibility with acet. The polymer is prepd by dissolving mol equiv wts of the monomers in anhyd dioxane together with 1.5 mol equiv wt % of BF3 etherate as the catalyst. The mixt is then maintained at 40—50° for several weeks. The product is pptd in w and the solvent removed by steam distn... 

Water in its supercritical state has fascinating properties as a reaction medium and behaves very differently from water under standard conditions [771]. The density of SC-H2O as well as its viscosity, dielectric constant and the solubility of various materials can be changed continuously between gas-like and liquid-like values by varying the pressure over a range of a few bars. At ordinary temperatures this is not possible. For instance, the dielectric constant of water at the critical temperature has a value similar to that of toluene. Under these conditions, apolar compounds such as alkanes may be completely miscible with sc-H2O which behaves almost like a non-aqueous fluid. 

The PBE dendron has a glass transition at about 40 °C and is soluble in various organic solvents (e.g., THF, acetone, toluene). It is therefore a moldable, thermoplastic, film-forming material. This practical feature is maintained for the lanthanide-cored dendrimer complexes. The complexes are partially miscible with poly(methyl methacrylate), affording transparent luminescence compositions by mixing in solvent. 

Purely aromatic ketones generally do not give satisfactory results pinacols and resinous products often predominate. The reduction of ketonic compounds of high molecular weight and very slight solubility is facilitated by the addition of a solvent, such as ethanol, acetic acid or dioxan, which is miscible with aqueous hydrochloric acid. With some carbonyl compounds, notably keto acids, poor yields are obtained even in the presence of ethanol, etc., and the difficulty has been ascribed to the formation of insoluble polymolecular reduction products, which coat the surface of the zinc. The adffition of a hydrocarbon solvent, such as toluene, is beneficial because it keeps most of the material out of contact with the zinc and the reduction occurs in the aqueous layer at such high dilution that polymolecular reactions are largdy inhibited (see Section IV,143). 

Another method for the synthesis of stable metal nanoparticles involves first mixing the metal hydrosols and an ethanol solution of dodecylamine and then extracting the dodecylamine-stabilized metal nanoparticles into toluene. The ethanol, a water miscible and good solvent for dodecylamine, was used as an intermediate solvent to improve the interfacial contact between citrate-stabilized metal nanoparticles and alkylamine. The extraction of dodecylamine-stabilized metal... 

On the Theory of Steam Distillation.—The ideal case occurs when the substance to be distilled is insoluble, or, more accurately, sparingly soluble in water (examples toluene, bromobenzene, nitrobenzene) so that the vapour pressures of water and the substance do not affect each other, or hardly so. The case of substances which are miscible with water (alcohol, acetic acid) is quite different and involves the more complicated theory of fractional distillation. Let us consider the first case only and take as our example bromobenzene, which boils at 155°. If we warm this liquid with water, its vapour pressure will rise in the manner shown by its own vapour pressure curve and independently of that of water. Ebullition will begin when the sum of the vapour pressures of the two substances has become equal to the prevailing atmospheric pressure. This is the case, as we can find from the vapour pressure curves, at 95-25° under a pressure of 760 mm. 

Miscibility is an important consideration when selecting solvents for use in biphasic systems. Table 4.4 shows the miscibility of three ionic liquids with water and some organic solvents. [bmim][PFe] was found to be miscible with organic solvents whose dielectric constant is higher than 7, but was not soluble in less polar solvents or in water. Basic [bmim][AlCl4] was found to react with protic solvents, and the acidic form also reacted with acetone, tetrahydrofuran and toluene. 

Another approach to isolate the catalyst from the products is the application of perfluorinated catalytic systems, dissolved in fluorinated media [63], which are not non-miscible with the products and some commonly used solvents for catalysis like THE or toluene at ambient temperature. Typical fluorinated media include perfluorinated alkanes, trialkylamines and dialkylethers. These systems are able to switch their solubility properties for organic and organometallic compounds based on changes of the solvation ability of the solvent by moving to higher temperatures. This behavior is similar to the above-mentioned thermomorphic multiphasic PEG-modified systems [65-67].
