Solubility Measurement and Data Correlation of 5,5-Dimethylhydantoin in 12 Pure Solvents at Temperatures from 283.15 to 323.15 K

The solubility of 5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMH) in 12 pure solvents including water, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, isopropyl alcohol, 1-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, 2-butanol, 1-pentanol, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, and acetonitrile was measured at temperatures from 283.15 to 323.15 K under atmospheric pressure by a gravimetric method. The values of the mole fraction solubility of DMH in these solvents increase with increasing temperature and present the following order at a fixed temperature: methanol > ethanol > 2-butanol > isopropyl alcohol > 1-propanol > isobutyl alcohol (1-butanol) > 1-pentanol > water > acetonitrile > ethyl acetate > propyl acetate. They were mathematically correlated by the modified Apelblat equation, van't Hoff equation, 2h equation, and the Wilson model. The results showed a satisfactory correlation for each model.
