Abstract

The cooperative dynamics and hydration of D-mannitol and myo-inositol in aqueous solution at 25 degrees C were investigated by broad-band dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) for solute concentrations c < 0.9M. The recorded spectra, covering the frequency range 0.05 <= nu/GHz <= 50, can be described as a superposition of three Debye-type relaxation processes. The determined total effective hydration numbers, Z(t), as well as the effective dipole moments, mu(eff), of D-mannitol and myo-inositol do not depend on solute concentration. The Z(t) values obtained for both sugar alcohols are significantly smaller than that of the previously studied xylitol. In contrast to aqueous xylitol, the dielectric spectra also showed no indication of the formation of D-mannitol or myo-inositol aggregates.
