The solubility of 4-ethyl-1-phenyl-1,3-octadione in pure water, (NH4)2SO4, NH3 (aq), and (NH4)2SO4鈥揘H3鈥揌2O solutions was measured by means of isothermal solution method at 298.15 K. The investigated total ammonia concentration ranges of NH3, (NH4)2SO4, and (NH4)2SO4鈥揘H3鈥揌2O system were up to 1.8053 mol路L鈥?, 3.0135 mol路kg鈥?, and 6.4 mol路kg鈥?, respectively. The experimental results indicate that the solubility of 4-ethyl-1-phenyl-1,3-octadione in NH3 and (NH4)2SO4鈥揘H3鈥揌2O solutions increases with the increase of total ammonia concentration. In contrast, its solubility in (NH4)2SO4 solution decreases with the increase of the ammonium sulfate concentration. The Pitzer model was adopted to correlate the dependency of the solubility with the activity coefficients. The parameters obtained by the least-squares method can explain the salting effect phenomenon and can be used to calculate and predict the activity coefficients of 4-ethyl-1-phenyl-1,3-octadione in ammoniacal solutions by the Pitzer model.
