IUPAC-NIST solubility data series. 88. esters with water-revised and updated. Part 1. C2 to C4 esters

Abstract

The mutual solubilities and related liquid-liquid equilibria of 19 binary systems of C2 to C4 esters with water are exhaustively and critically reviewed. Reports of experimental determination of solubility that appeared in the primary literature prior to the end of 2007 are compiled. For ten systems, sufficient data are available to allow critical evaluation. All data are expressed as mass fraction and mole fraction as well as the originally reported units. In addition to the standard evaluation criteria used throughout the Solubility Data Series, a method based on the evaluation of all experimental data for a given series of esters was used. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.
