This research provides a thorough investigation into the solubility behavior and solution thermodynamics of l-threonine in significant organic solvent systems. The work was done on measuring the actual solubility and subsequently calculating overall transfer solvation free energetics (∆Genergetic0i) and transfer entropies (∆St0i) at a temperature of 298.15 K. These measurements were performed as l-threonine transitioned from water to different water-organic mixed solvents systems. The saturated solubilities of l-threonine were determined using the 'gravimetric method' at five equidistant temperatures namely 288.15 K, 293.15 K, 298.15 K, 303.15 K and 308.15 K. By analyzing the data on solubility, we further obtained the different energies involved in solvation related issues. In the case of single solvents, the nature of solubility of l-threonine was observed like: dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) < acetonitrile (ACN) < N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) < ethylene glycol (EG) < water (H2O), irrespective of the experimental conditions. Specifically, at 298.15 K, the solubilities of l-threonine in single solvents were found to be as follows: 0.8220 mol per kg of water, 0.3101 mol per kg of EG, 0.1337 mol per kg of DMF, 0.1107 mol per kg DMSO and 0.1188 mol per kg of ACN. This research critically examines the relationship between the experimental saturated solubility of l-threonine and the complex properties influencing its solvation energy in diverse aqueous organic solvent systems.
