Abstract

Solubility data are reported for capric, lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, and arachidic acids in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Complete binary freezing-point diagrams were constructed for the capric, myristic, and stearic acid systems. A solid, incongruently melting 1:1 molecular compound formed in all except the stearic acid-DMF system. Calculated solubility data for lauric, palmitic, and arachidic acids in both solvents were in good agreement with experimental determinations on selected compositions.
