This article presents an in-depth investigation into the influence of anionic structures of ionic liquids (ILs) on gas-ionic liquid partition coefficients (log ) of organic solutes in three ILs. While the primary objective was to examine whether there is a relationship between the molecular structure of the IL anion component and log , additionally it was looked at whether the molecular descriptors of the anion in the relationships encode possible molecular interactions during the miscibility and partitioning in the IL. The research involves the compilation of data series of experimental log values, where the cation component is constant.

A polemic is given regarding several of the calculated curve-fit parameters that Zhou and coworkers reported in their published paper. The calculated curve-fit parameters for the Combined Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent/Redlich-Kister, Jouyban-Acree-van't Hoff, Sun and modified Apelblat models were found to give mole fraction solubilities that exceeded unity. Our analysis also found that the mean relative absolute percent deviations provided by the authors were significantly underestimated.

Rosuvastatin (RST) is a poorly water-soluble drug responsible for limited in vivo dissolution and subsequently low oral systemic absorption (poor bioavailability). The mole fraction solubility values of RST in various ratios of binary mixtures "{PEG400 (1) + water (2)}" at 298.15 K were employed to investigate the preferential solvation (PS) of RST (3) by the binary components.

Meloxicam is an analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug widely prescribed in current therapeutics that exhibits very low solubility in water. Thus, this physicochemical property has been studied in -methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP)-aqueous mixtures at several temperatures to expand the solubility database about pharmaceutical compounds in aqueous-mixed solvents. The flask-shake method and UV-vis spectrophotometry were used for meloxicam solubility determination as a function of temperature and mixture composition.
