A gas chromatographic headspace analysis method was used to experimentally determine gas-to-liquid partition coefficients and infinite dilution activity coefficients for two saturated (2,2,4-trimethylpentane, cyclooctane) and 3 unsaturated hydrocarbons (1,7-octadiene, 1-hexyne, 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexene), one aromatic hydrocarbon (propylbenzene), one haloalkane (1,3-dichloropropane) and four halobenzenes (fluorobenzene, chlorobenzene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, bromobenzene), two cyclic ethers (tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane), two alcohols (1-propanol, 2-propanol), three alkyl acetates (ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, pentyl acetate), and one alkanenitrile (acetonitrile) dissolved in 2-pyrrolidone at 298.15 K. The experimental results of the headspace chromatographic measurements, combined with published solubility and infinite dilution activity coefficient data, were used to derive Abraham model correlations for describing solute transfer into 2-pyrrolidone. Mathematical correlations based on the Abraham model describe the observed partition coefficient and activity coefficient data to within 0.14 log(10) units (or less).
