Evaluation of Acidic Ionic Liquids as Catalysts for Furfural Production from Eucalyptus nitens Wood

Eucalyptus nitens wood samples were subjected to hydrothermal processing to obtain soluble saccharides from the hemicellulosic fraction.

室温离子液体BMIGaCl4热力学性质研究

An ionic liquid （IL） BMIGaCh was prepared by directly mixing GaCl3 and 1-methyl-3-butylimidazolium chloride with molar ratio of 1/1 under argon atmosphere. The densities and surface tensions of this pure ionic liquid were determined in the temperature range of 268.15 to （338.15±0.1） K. A new theoretical model of ionic liquids, an interstice model, was applied to calculate the thermal expansion coefficient of IL BMIGaCh, a, and the magnitude order of its value calculated by the theory was the same as experimental one.

Synthesis and Computational Study of Phosphorus Ionic Liquids

The synthesis of six tetraalkylammonium bromopentachlorophosphoride ionic liquids (ILs) is reported here. Their structures were determined by IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Moreover, thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were used to investigate the thermal behavior of these compounds. The results show that these ILs have excellent thermal stability below 145°C, and by decreasing the size of the alkyl groups, the thermal stabilities will increase. Along with the experimental study, these compounds have been studied computationally at the B3LYP/LANL2DZ level of theory using the PC GAMESS/Firefly program package. From these calculations, optimized geometries, molecular parameters, and vibrational spectra of ILs have been calculated. In addition, calculated frequencies are compared with the experimental frequencies after correction by the appropriate scaling factor. This comparison shows that our theoretical data are in good agreement with the experimental results.
