Popis: |
Cholic acid, deoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and ursodeoxycholic acid were purified by a foam fractionation method. Using thermogravimetric analysis, the attached water molecule was found to be completely removed from solids of the latter three at 100 degrees C, while cholic acid still had one water molecule of crystallization per two cholic acid molecules at that temperature. The acidity constants of the acids were accurately determined from aqueous solubility measurements at different pH values and at 15, 25, 35, and 45 degrees C. The enthalpy change of dissolution from temperature dependence of solubility as undissociated acid monomer was much less than those of common ionic surfactants. This results from a smaller entropy increase on dissolution due to the hardly flexible hydrophobic structure of these bile acids. |
