Abstract
Solubilities are reported for carbazole in three binary chloroalkane + dibutyl ether solvent mixtures at 25°C. Results of these measurements are compared with solution models developed for solubility in systems containing specific solute-solvent interactions. A simple model based on a single 1:1 carbazole:dibutyl ether complex described the solubility data, though the calculated equilibrium constant was about one-half of values published previously. A more sophisticated solution model, which assumes both carbazole:dibutyl ether and carbazole:chloroalkane complexes, was needed to thermodynamically describe the systems studied. Equilibrium constants for three presumed carbazole:chloroalkane complexes are calculated from measured carbazole solubilities.
