Molecular interactions between fullerene C60 and ionic liquids

Molecular interactions between ammonium-based ionic liquids and molecular solvents: current progress and challenges.

In view of the spacious scope of structural information and the molecular interactions between ammonium-based ionic liquids (ILs) and molecular solvents in various applications including chemical and pharmaceutical that are crucial for all aspects of scientific community, the knowledge of the molecular mechanisms, in particular, the thermodynamic basis of the structure-breaking/making interacti...

Interactions between Organic Compounds and Ionic Liquids. Selectivity and Capacity Characteristics of Ionic Liquids

Interactions and dynamics in ionic liquids.

Precise dielectric spectra have been determined at 25 degrees C over the exceptionally broad frequency range of 0.1 <or= nu/GHz <or= 3000 for the imidazolium-based room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) [bmim][BF4], [bmim][PF6], [bmim][DCA], and [hmim][BF4]. The spectra are dominated by a low-frequency process at approximately 1 GHz with a broad relaxation time distribution of the Cole-Davidson...

Molecular dynamics simulations of noble gases encapsulated in C60 Fullerene

Molecular dynamics simulations of Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krpton (Kr) and Xenon (Xe) encapsulated in C60 are discussed, as well simulations of Fullerenes containing anywhere from two to four He atoms. Even for single atom encapsulates, no species resides at the geometric center of the Fullerene cage. Smaller atoms sit more off-center than larger ones, and He appears to be a special ...

Designer molecular probes for phosphonium ionic liquids.

Investigations into the extent of structuring present in phosphonium based ionic liquids (ILs) have been carried out using photochromic molecular probes. Three spiropyran derivatives containing hydroxyl (BSP-1), carboxylic acid (BSP-2) and aliphatic chain (C(14)H(29)) (BSP-3) functional groups have been analysed in a range of phosphonium based ionic liquids and their subsequent physico-chemical...
