AbstractThe solubility of nicotinohydrazide in two binary solvents were determined by a static weight method from 293.15 to 318.15 K. It found that the solubility of nicotinohydrazide was influenced by temperature, solvent polarity, and solvent composition. Meanwhile, the TG-DSC analysis was used to obtain the weight change and thermal effect of nicotinohydrazide. The XRD analysis indicated that the crystal morphology of nicotinohydrazide was coincident in five different solvents. Furthermore, the models including modified Apelblat equation, Van’t Hoff equation, Jouyban-Acree model, and CNIBS/R-K model were used to fit the experimental data. It was concluded that the four models were reliable in fitting the experimental data. Then the dissolution apparent thermodynamic was obtained, which explained well the dissolution of nicotinohydrazide. This study could help optimize and control the industrial crystallization of nicotinohydrazide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

AbstractGlycylglycine (Gly–Gly) is a crucial biochemical reagent widely used in cosmetics, food additives, and medicine. Using the equilibrium method, the solubility data of Gly–Gly in four binary solvents (ethanol/isopropanol/ethanediol/acetone + water) were investigated at temperatures over a range of 288.15–328.15 K under 101.3 kPa, as well as in the binary solvent of acetic acid + water from 293.15 to 333.15 K. The solubility data were correlated by Apelblat-Jouyban Acree, Van’t Hoff-Jouyban Acree, and CNIBS/Redlich-Kister models. Additionally, the radial distribution function was obtained through molecular dynamic simulation. It presented the unusual dissolution behavior of Gly–Gly in acetic acid and water mixture. The apparent thermodynamic properties, including standard enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, and entropy change of dissolution, were obtained accordingly. This article could help the industrial crystallization of Gly–Gly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
