ABSTRACT

The solubilities of phloretin in methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, propan-2-ol, butan-1-ol, butan-2-ol, pentan-1-ol, hexan-1-ol, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, 1,4-dioxane, and water were measured at T = (288.2, 298.2, 308.2, 318.2, and 328.2) K and atmosphere pressure. The experimental results show that the phloretin is soluble in methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, propan-2-ol, butan-1-ol, butan-2-ol, pentan-1-ol, hexan-1-ol, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, and 1,4-dioxane but insoluble in water. The solubilities of phloretin in selected solvents increase with increasing temperature. A simplified thermodynamic equation and a three-parameter Apelblat equation were used to correlate the experimental data.
