Abstract: | Equilibrium constants, defined on the basis of the moles of all reactants and products including water, were found to be 4.6, 1.0 and 0.8 for the esterification of the glycinc cation at 20 degrees in a dilute aqueous sytem, and systems having 0.5 : 1 and 1 : 1 molar ratios of ethanol to water, respectively. When corrections were made for deviations from ideality a value of 5 +/- 1 was obtained for all three systems. Enthalpy changes were determined calorimetrically for the dilute aqueous and equimolar ethanol-water systems, and in each case was close to 1 kcal mole(-). The entropy change was calculated as 6 cal mole(-1) deg(-1).DeltaG(0') for the hydrolysis of the glycine ethyl ester cation at 20 degrees and pH 7 was calculated as -7.5 kcal mole(-1). |
