Extraction of natural radionuclides from aqueous solutions by novel maltolate-based task-specific ionic liquids
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two novel maltol-based ionic liquids, namely [A336][Mal] and [C101][Mal], were synthesized as potential extracting agents for radionuclides from water. These two room temperature task-specific ionic liquids could be easily prepared by anion metathesis starting from commercially available materials. The isolated compounds were characterized by standard analytical methods. Their application as extraction agent for Unat., 234Th, 210Pb, 210Bi, 210Po and 226Ra was elucidated by liquid-liquid extraction and scintillation counting. Uranium was totally extracted by both ionic liquids over a broad pH range (2-8), while the other radionuclides were removed with differing efficacies depending on the respective pH value.

Task-specific ionic liquids incorporating novel cations for the coordination and extraction of Hg2+ and Cd2+: synthesis, characterization, and extraction studies.
A series of hydrophobic task-specific ionic liquids designed to extract Hg2+ and Cd2+ from water were prepared by appending urea-, thiourea-, and thioether-substituted alkyl groups to imidazoles and combining the resulting cationic species with PF6-. The new ionic liquids were characterized and investigated for their metal ion extraction capabilities. When used in liquid/liquid extraction of Hg...

A new approach for ionic liquid based enzyme-assisted extraction (ILEAE) of chlorogenic acid (CGA) from Eucommia ulmoides is presented in which enzyme pretreatment was used in ionic liquids aqueous media to enhance extraction yield. For this purpose, the solubility of CGA and the activity of cellulase were investigated in eight 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium ionic liquids. Cellulase in 0.5 M [C6mi...
متن کاملEnhanced extraction of caffeine from guaraná seeds using aqueous solutions of ionic liquids†
The extraction of caffeine from bioresources using more benign and cost-effective processes is of fundamental relevance towards the finding of alternative (bio)pesticides. Classically, the best attempts to extract caffeine from biomass have resulted in low efficiency and in a large consumption of hazardous organic solvents and/or energy requirements. Here, we report an enhanced and selective ex...
متن کاملImproved recovery of ionic liquids from contaminated aqueous streams using aluminium-based salts{
The number of applications involving ionic liquids has dramatically increased in the past few years, and their production and use in a large scale will inevitably lead to their dispersion into water streams (either by wastewater disposal or accidental leakage). Studies on the removal and recovery of ionic liquids from wastewater streams are therefore of crucial importance, yet particularly scar...
