Retrograde Solubility

Retrograde solubility refers to a phenomenon in which a substance that is normally soluble in a particular solvent becomes less soluble as the temperature of the solvent is increased. This is the opposite of normal solubility, in which a substance becomes more soluble as the temperature increases. Retrograde solubility is commonly observed in certain classes of compounds, such as proteins and polysaccharides, and is a consequence of changes in the thermodynamic properties of the solvent and solute as the temperature changes.
