This study investigated the retention mechanism of a congeneric group of imidazolium ionic liquid cations with alkyl functional groups of different lengths, an aryl substituent, and one pyridinium cation on a pentafluorophenylpropyl silica-based stationary phase. The influence of organic modifier type and content in the mobile phase on the retention mode of alkylimidazolium ionic liquid cations...

The acid dyes are one of the most widely used commercial dyes used in the textile industries. This work investigates the ability of magnetite nanoparticles functionalized with imidazolium based ionic liquid as an efficient sorbent for removal of the Acid Blue 113 from wastewater. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy FT-IR, X-ray diffraction XRD and Transmission Electron Microscopy TEM were u...

SBA-15 was prepared and then functionalized with N-methyl-N’-propyltrimethoxysilyl imidazolium chloride as ionic liquid moiety. The ionic liquid functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-IL) was characterized by different analytical techniques including FT-IR, N2 adsorption-desorption, TGA and SEM image. According to the obtained results it was found that the organic groups were g...

The present study, for the first time, presents a feasible protocol for the preparation of β-cyclodextrin/ imidazolium based dicationic ionic liquid, [βCD/Im](OTs)2, and its application as an efficient and eco-friendly microvessel and host ionic liquid system for the regioselective ring opening of the epoxides in water. No evidence for the formation of diol by-products or side reacti...

Crystalline solids, co-existing in equilibrium with the 3-methyl-1H-imidazolium bromohydrogenates(I) ionic liquid, have been characterised by X-ray diffraction analysis. The Brønsted acidic, homo-conjugate [H(2)Br(3)](-) anions presented are discussed in terms of their structure and reactivity, in efforts to advance the understanding of Brønsted acidity in ionic liquid media.

A new nanostarch functionalized ionic liquid containing imidazolium cation and cobalt chelate anion was synthesized and tested for the one pot synthesis of carbamates by the reaction of amines and dimethyl carbonate (DMC), affording excellent yield of the products under solvent free mild reaction conditions. The synthesized ionic liquid was easily recovered and reused several times without any ...

A group of imidazolium and pyridinium based ionic liquids has been synthetized, and their ability to dissolve and activate the catalysts used in hydrosilylation reaction of 1-octane and 1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane was investigated. An organometallic catalyst as well as inorganic complexes of platinum and rhodium dissolved in ionic liquids were used, forming liquid solutions not miscibl...

A new compound was detected during the production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from glucose and cellulose in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) at high temperatures. Further experiments found that it was derived from the reaction of HMF with [Bmim]Cl. The structure of new compound was established as 1-butyl-2-(5'-methyl-2'-furoyl)imidazole (BMI) based on nuclea...

Abstract: A thermodynamic consistency test developed for high pressure binary vapor-liquid mixtures is applied to mixtures containing a supercritical solvent and an ionic liquid. Several authors have reported vapor-liquid equilibrium data on the binary systems supercritical CO2 + 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate {[bmim][PF6]}, supercritical CO2 + 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium nit...

Steady-state and time-resolved Stokes shift data for the probe coumarin 153 in two imidazoles, six imidazolium-based ionic liquids, and several other solvents are presented. These results are consistent with our original suggestion (J. Phys. Chem. B 2004, 108, 10245-10255) that initial solvation is dominated by the organic moiety of the ionic liquid, and they show that for the imidazole-based l...
