Crystal and molecular structure of anhydrous betaine, (CH3)3NCH2CO2
1999
Abstract 1–Carboxy–N,N,N–trimethylmethanamanium inner salt or anhydrous betaine, (CH3)3NCH2CO2, FW=117.15 gmol −1 , crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with a=14.544(2) A , b=6.859(3) A , c=6.131(1) A , V=611.7(3) A 3 , Z=4, D x =1.27 Mgm −3 , λ (MoK α )=0.71073 A , μ =0.091 mm −1 . The structure was resolved by direct methods and refined by least-square calculations to R=0.038 for 531 reflections. Observed changes in bond angles imply that there is a repulsion between nitrogen and oxygen. The melting point (measured at onset) is 570 K. FTIR spectra of anhydrous betaine and monohydrate were recorded. Clear differences were found between the two compounds based on infrared (i.r…
Solutions properties and solute–solvent interactions in ternary sugar–salt–water solutions
2010
International audience; Viscometric constants were used to provide information on solute-solvent interactions in ternary water-sugar-salt solutions. Comparison was made between pure water and aqueous salt solution as solvents affecting the behaviour of small carbohydrates. The determination of intrinsic viscosity was made more accurate by applying triple extrapolation of the three equations (Huggins. Kramer and Meffroy-Biget). Results obtained with this triple extrapolation method were compared to that obtained with the Jones-Dole equation usually used. The B coefficient of the Jones-Dole equation was interpreted in terms of its components (B(size)) and (B(structure)), respectively assigned…
