Zusammenfassung:The present study is on the reactive extraction of pimelic acid (heptanedioic acid) from dilute aqueous solutions by trioctylamine (TOA) in decan-1-ol. The equilibrium studies were performed at 298 K and the results were used to calculate the values of distribution coefficient (KD), loading factor (Z) and degree of extraction (E%). The maximum KD was obtained as 62.34 when initial concentrations of pimelic acid and TOA were 0.038 and 0.2 mol·kg−1, respectively. The extraction efficiency was 98.27% under these conditions. Moreover, Z values between 0.184 and 2.934 were obtained in the ranges of parameters studied. The data presents the formation of 1:1 and 1:2 pimelic acid-TOA solvates in the organic phase. A solvatochromic model (LSER) was applied to the equilibrium data and the KD values obtained using the model show a good fit to the experimental outcomes.
