The solubility of Ibu in fifteen pure solvents and in eight aqueous–organic cosolvent mixtures was determined. The results obtained indicate that Hildebrand's solubility parameter of pure solvent, which accounts for the cohesive forces of the solvent, has a greater influence on the solubility of Ibu. In all the cosolvent mixtures analyzed, the solute was preferentially solvated by the organic cosolvent. For aqueous binary mixtures formed by ethanol, ethylene glycol and propylene glycol, the enthalpy, entropic and Gibbs free energy changes involved with the solvation process were determined. In the three systems analyzed, it can be seen that the energy of formation of the cavity decreases as the polarity of the solvent decreases by increasing the amount of organic cosolvent, which, in this case, favors solute–solvent interactions. However, it was noted that there is a significant interaction between water and the organic cosolvent, which has a marked influence on the solvation process. |
