Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) for dimethyl disulfide + toluene, dimethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, dimethyl disulfide + 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene, and diethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane at 368.15 K were measured with a recirculation still. All systems exhibit positive deviation from Raoult's law. Dimethyl disulfide + toluene system shows only slight positive deviation from Raoult's law, while dimethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, dimethyl disulfide + 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene, and diethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane systems show larger positive deviation from Raoult's law. Maximum pressure azeotropes were found in systems: dimethyl disulfide + toluene (x1 = 0.632, P = 66.4 kPa, T = 368.15 K), dimethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane (x1 = 0.311, P = 95.8 kPa, T = 368.15 K), and dimethyl disulfide + 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene (x1 = 0.295, P = 88.4 kPa, T = 368.15 K). No azeotropic behavior was observed in system diethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane at 368.15 K. The experimental results were correlated with the Wilson model. Original UNIFAC was used to predict dimethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and diethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane systems at 368.15 K. COSMO-SAC predictive model was used to predict infinite dilution activity coefficients for all systems measured. Liquid and vapor-phase composition were determined with gas chromatography. All VLE measurements passed the thermodynamic consistency tests applied. The activity coefficients at infinite dilution are also presented.
