    The solubility data of 2,5-bis(2-furylmethylidene)cyclopentan-1-one (F<inf>2</inf>C) in solid-liquid equilibrium in alternative solvents are vital for a preliminary study of industrial applications aimed at producing sustainable and renewable materials and fuels. The solubility behavior of F<inf>2</inf>C in different solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran, mixed water-tetrahydrofuran (1:1, v/v), methanol, and water at temperatures ranging from 308.15 to 403.15K was investigated. An isothermal method was employed to measure the solubility data of F<inf>2</inf>C. The experimental data showed that the solubility of F<inf>2</inf>C increased as the temperature increased and was strongly affected by the surface tension and polarity index. The solubility of F<inf>2</inf>C in the studied solvents increased in the following order: H<inf>2</inf>O<methanol<H<inf>2</inf>O-THF mixture<THF. The thermodynamic models, such as the polynomial empirical equation, the Van't Hoff, and the modified Apelblat models were investigated to describe the experimental data. It was found that the modified Apelblat model was the most suitable for predicting the solubility behavior of F<inf>2</inf>C with a temperature increment. The calculated thermodynamic parameters indicated that in each studied solvent the dissolution process of F<inf>2</inf>C is endothermic and spontaneous. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
