制备了离子液体(1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑六氟磷酸 [EMIM][PF₆])负载量不同的多孔纳米氧化硅(SiO_x), 并采用差式扫描量热分析(DSC)、X射线衍射(XRD)、激光Raman光谱、傅里叶变换红外(FTIR)光谱分析等手段研究离子液体负载纳米氧化硅后的熔点变化及相行为. 研究表明负载于纳米氧化硅表面的离子液体熔点明显下降, 且负载于不同表面羟基含量的氧化硅表面熔点下降幅度不同. 纯离子液体[EMIM][PF₆]熔点为62 ℃, 在纳米氧化硅表面负载量为35%时熔点为52 ℃, 比负载前下降10 ℃; 负载于另两种不同羟基含量的纳米氧化硅表面后熔点分别下降20和17 ℃. 而同一种纳米氧化硅(比表面积为640 m²·g^-1)在负载量小于50%时, 熔点下降明显; 进一步增大负载量, 熔点逐渐趋于本体. XRD和Raman光谱分析显示, 离子液体负载于氧化硅表面后其衍射峰或吸收峰相对强度发生明显改变. 分析负载前后纳米氧化硅的结构变化, 推断离子液体熔点下降的主要原因是离子液体分子与纳米氧化硅表面之间存在强烈的界面相互作用, 而表面羟基的密度及比表面积是影响负载后[EMIM][PF₆]离子液体相行为的主要因素.     

Direct electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of myoglobin immobilized in hyaluronic acid and room temperature ionic liquids composite film

A novel biocomposite film based on hyaluronic acid (HA) and hydrophilic room temperature ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM][BF₄]) was explored. Here, HA was used as a binder to form [EMIM][BF₄]-HA composite film and help [EMIM][BF₄] to attaching on glass carbon electrode (GCE) surface, while doping [EMIM][BF₄] in HA can effectively reduce the electron transfer resistance of HA. The composite film can be readily used as an immobilization matrix to entrap myoglobin (Mb). A pair of well-defined and quasi-reversible redox peaks of Mb was obtained at the Mb-[EMIM][BF₄]-HA composite film modified GCE (Mb-[EMIM][BF₄]-HA/GCE) through direct electron transfer between Mb and the underlying electrode. The Mb-[EMIM][BF₄]-HA/GCE showed an excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the reduction of H₂O₂. Based on the [EMIM][BF₄]-HA biocomposite film, a third-generation reagentless biosensor could be constructed for the determination of H₂O₂.     

Effect of anions on static orientational correlations, hydrogen bonds, and dynamics in ionic liquids: a simulational study

Three different ionic liquids are investigated via atomistic molecular dynamics simulations using the force field of Lopes and PAdua (J. Phys. Chem. B 2006, 110, 19586). In particular, the 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation EMIM+ is studied in the presence of three different anions, namely, chloride Cl-, tetrafluoroborate BF(4)(-), and bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyly)imide TF2N-. In the focus of the present study are the static distributions of anions and cations around a cation as a function of anion size. It is found that the preferred positions of the anions change from being close to the imidazolium hydrogens to being above and below the imidazolium rings. Lifetimes of hydrogen bonds are calculated and found to be of the same order of magnitude as those of pure liquid water and of some small primary alcohols. Three kinds of short-range cation-cation orderings are studied, among which the offset stacking dominates in all of the investigated ionic liquids. The offset stacking becomes weaker from [EMIM][Cl] to [EMIM][BF4] to [EMIM][TF2N]. Further investigation of the dynamical behavior reveals that cations in [EMIM][TF2N] have a slower tumbling motion compared with those in [EMIM][Cl] and [EMIM][BF4] and that pure diffusive behavior can be observed after 1.5 ns for all three systems at temperatures 90 K above the corresponding melting temperatures.

Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium Data for 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Acetate–Thiophene–Diesel Compound: Experiments and Correlations

Extraction of thiophene from cyclohexane, isooctane and toluene were performed using the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM][OAc]) at T=298.15 K. The liquid?Cliquid equilibrium (LLE) experiments were performed on three systems, namely: [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Ccyclohexane, [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Cisooctane and [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Ctoluene. The LLE data showed that [EMIM][OAc] has a higher selectivity at low concentration of thiophene and also showed that the hydrocarbon-rich phase is free of ionic liquid. This implies that there will be no cross contamination and the ionic liquid will be a non-pollutant in fuel after extraction. Further, the amount of hydrocarbon in the ionic-liquid-rich phase is very small. This implies that ionic liquid can be regenerated with negligible loss of fuel. LLE data was then correlated using the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. These showed root mean square deviation (RMSD) values of 0.82?% and 1.46?% for the isooctane system, 1.37?% and 1.57?% for the cyclohexane system and 1.39?% and 1.53?% for the toluene system.     

Density and surface tension of binary mixtures of 1-ethyl-3-methylimdazolium nitrate with alcohols

New experimental data of densities and surface tensions are presented for the binary mixtures of the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3- methyl imidazolium nitrate（[EMIM]NO₃） with methanol and ethanol.Measurements were performed at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure,covering the whole composition range.Excess molar volumes V^E and the surface tension deviations Sy have been determined.For the excess molar volumes of binary mixture,there is a region of negative V^E at low IL mole fraction,passing through a minimum and then V^E increases and becomes positive,showing maximum at higher IL mole fraction.It is shown that the surface tension deviations Sy of[EMIM]NO₃ + methanol system are positive but those of[EMIM]NO₃ + ethanol system are negative over the entire mole fraction range.     

1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑L-乳酸盐作为手性配体用于氨基酸的手性拆分

基于手性配体交换机理,研究了以手性离子液体1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑L-乳酸盐([EMIM][L-Lac])为手性配体拆分色氨酸对映体(Trys)、苯丙氨酸对映体(Phes)和酪氨酸对映体(Tyrs)的方法。实验考察了背景电解质和中心离子种类、手性配体与中心离子的浓度及比例、运行缓冲液pH等因素对Trys、Phes和Tyrs手性拆分的影响。研究发现,当运行缓冲液为40.0 mmol/L [EMIM][L-Lac]、20.0 mmol/L氯化铜(pH 4.5)时,3对对映体均能得到良好的手性拆分。为了验证[EMIM][L-Lac]的良好性能,实验进一步将L-乳酸(L-Lac)作为手性配体用于Trys的手性拆分。对比实验发现,单独使用L-乳酸,DL-Try只能得到部分拆分,加入离子液体1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑醋酸盐(EMIM-Ace)后,DL-Try分离情况得到了很大改善,但出峰时间延长至30 min以上。而使用[EMIM][L-Lac]时,Trys的出峰时间均在15 min以内。实验最后还对手性拆分机理做了进一步讨论。实验结果表明:在EMIM-Ace辅助L-Lac体系中,EMIM-Ace仅被用于抑制电渗流,并未参与手性配体交换反应;而在[EMIM][L-Lac]体系中,参与手性配体交换反应的主要是未解离的[EMIM][L-Lac],而不是解离后的L-乳酸根离子形成的L-乳酸。     

Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for ethanol–water system containing different ionic liquids at atmospheric pressure

Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for ethanol–water systems containing ionic liquids (ILs) 1-methyl-3-methylimidazolium dimethylphosphate ([MMIM][DMP]), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium diethylphosphate ([EMIM][DEP]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([BMIM][Br]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([BMIM][Cl]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF₆]) at atmospheric pressure (101.32 kPa) were measured with a circulation still. The results showed that the VLE of ethanol–water systems in the presence of different ILs was obviously different from that of the IL-free system. All ILs studied showed a salting-out effect, which gave rise to a change of the relative volatility of ethanol, and even to an elimination of the azeotropic point. It was found that the salting-out effect followed the order of [BMIM][Cl] > [BMIM][Br] > [BMIM][PF₆] and [MMIM][DMP] > [EMIM][DEP], which was ascribed to the preferential solvation ability of the ions resulting from the dissociation of the IL.     

Effect of water on the interfacial structures of room-temperature ionic liquids

The interfacial structures of cyano-based room-temperature ionic liquids play a very important role in reducing friction. However, the presence of water impairs their tribological performance. The interfacial structures and friction forces of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide, [EMIM][DCN], and the effect of water on these structures and forces were investigated using atomic force microscopy. In addition, the interaction of water and [EMIM][DCN] was evaluated using Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Multiple repulsive layers were observed in the [EMIM][DCN] solution. This solution showed low friction force because these repulsive layers worked as protective layers against friction. On the other hand, the specific repulsive layer characteristics of [EMIM][DCN] could not be observed in a [EMIM][DCN] + 2 wt% H₂O solution. FT-IR results indicated that the layer structure of [EMIM][DCN] was disturbed by the addition of H₂O. Therefore, the solution containing water exhibited a high friction force.     

Ionic liquids enhanced oil recovery from oily sludge-experiment and mechanism

The oily sludge would cause environment pollution, and would cause the heavy oil waste. Therefore, it was vital for us to find novel methods to obtain heavy oil from the oily sludges. In this study, the [C₁₂mim][PF₆] and [C₁₂mim][Br] ionic liquids(ILs) were used to enhance the oil recovery. The toluene could obtain the highest oil recovery, and both the two ILs could increase the oil recovery. Toluene could obtain the highest oil recovery (89.4 wt%), and n-octane could obtain the lowest oil recovery (76.8 wt%). [C₁₂mim] [PF₆] could efficiently increase the heavy oil recovery to 91.2 wt%(by toluene). The [C₁₂mim][Br] could increase the heavy oil recovery further. Both the [C₁₂mim] [PF₆] and the [C₁₂mim][Br] ionic liquids could increase the heavy ois C/H ratio, decrease heavy oil viscosity and increase the sands hydrophilicity. The [C₁₂mim][Br] ionic liquids showed better effect. In addition, the ionic liquids could increase the solvents recovery, and the ionic liquids recovery were high. Therefore, the ionic liquids enhanced oil recovery could be recycled to ten times. The two ionic liquids could effectively decrease the heavy oil interaction force, and when the ionic liquids increased to 200 ppm, the force remained stable. In the end, the ionic liquids enhancing solvent extraction mechanism was put forward.     

Experimental Research on NO2 Viscosity and Absorption for (1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoroacetate + Triethanolamine) Binary Mixtures

The viscosity (9.34–405.92 mPa·s) and absorption capacity (0.4394–1.0562 g·g⁻¹) of (1-ethyl-3-methylidazolium trifluoroacetate + triethanolamine) binary blends atmospheric pressure in the temperature range of 303.15–343.15 K and at different mole fractions of [EMIM] [TFA] have been carried out. The molar fraction of [EMIM] [TFA] dependence of the viscosity and absorption capacity was demonstrated. The addition of a small amount of [EMIM] [TFA] into TEA led to rapidly decreased rates of binary blends’ viscosity and absorption capacity. However, the viscosity and absorption of binary blends did not decrease significantly when [EMIM] [TFA] was increased to a specific value. Compared with the molar fraction of the solution, the temperature had no obvious effect on viscosity and absorption capacity. By modeling and optimizing the ratio of viscosity and absorption capacity of ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA), it is proven that when the mole fraction of [EMIM] [TFA] is 0.58, ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA) has the best viscosity and absorption capacity at the same time. In addition, at 303.15 K, ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA) was absorbed and desorbed six times, the absorption slightly decreased, and the desorption increased.     

The thermochemistry of solvation of imidazolium-based ionic liquids in benzene

ABSTRACT

The present work is devoted to the thermochemical study of solvation of ionic liquids (IL) in benzene. The solution enthalpies of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tricyanomethanide [EMIM][C(CN)₃], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [BMIM][BF₄], 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [HMIM][PF₆], 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [OMIM][BF₄], 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [EMIM][NTf₂], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [BMIM][NTf₂] and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate [BMIM][TfO] in benzene were measured. The solvation enthalpies of imidazolium-based IL were calculated. Molar refractions of imidazolium-based IL form literature data on density and refractive indexes of IL were also calculated. The linear correlation between solvation enthalpy and molar refraction of IL was observed. This correlation can be used to calculate the vaporization enthalpy of imidazolium-based IL from solution calorimetry data.     

Vapor pressure measurement for water,methanol, ethanol,and their binary mixtures in the presence of an ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dimethylphosphate

Vapor pressure data were measured for water, methanol and ethanol as well as their binary mixtures with an ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dimethylphosphate ([EMIM][DMP]) at varying temperature and IL-content ranging from mass fraction of 0.10–0.70 by a quasi-static method. The vapor pressure data for the IL-containing binary systems were correlated using NRTL equation with average absolute relative deviation (ARD) within 0.0076, and the binary NRTL parameters was used for predicting the vapor pressure of the IL-containing ternary systems with reasonable accuracy. In addition, the infinite activity coefficients of solvents in [EMIM][DMP] and isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium for IL-containing ternary systems at 101.325 kPa and mass fraction of IL being 0.5 were predicted with the regressed NRTL parameters. The results indicate that ionic liquid [EMIM][DMP] can depress the volatility of the solvents of water, methanol and ethanol but to a varying degree, leading to the variation of relative volatility of a solvent and even removal of azeotrope for water–ethanol mixture.     

A novel method to prepare polymer-ionic liquid gel under high pressure and its electrochemical properties

Sol–gel transition behavior of ionic liquid gel based on poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) and ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethylsulfate [EMIM][EtSO₄] has been investigated under the pressure up to 250 MPa. The Temperature versus Pressure phase diagram of PEG/[EMIM][EtSO₄] gel is constructed, and it indicates that the melting point is an increasing function of pressure. Based on the phase diagram, the PEG/[EMIM][EtSO₄] gels are prepared by cooling under the pressure of 300 MPa and atmospheric pressure, respectively. From the differential scanning calorimetry result of the recovered samples, it is found that PEG/[EMIM][EtSO₄] gel prepared under high pressure has a higher crystallinity and smaller crystal size polymer network, comparing with under atmospheric pressure. The cyclic voltammograms and impedance spectra tests indicate that the PEG/[EMIM][EtSO₄] gel prepared under high pressure exhibit higher ionic conductivity comparing with atmospheric pressure. It could be speculated these excellent properties might be attributed to the loose gel structure and high ionic density induced by high pressure.

From the experimental VLE data, the influence of the ionic liquid on the separation factors was investigated. The experimental results for the ternary systems show that [EMIM]⁺[EtSO₄]⁻ has a great influence on the separation factors of the systems investigated. Furthermore, the experimental separation factors were compared with the predicted ones of other ionic liquids and conventional selective solvents using modified UNIFAC (Dortmund).

Ionothermal synthesis and characterization of two new heteropolytungstates with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ionic liquid as solvent

In this article, we have synthesized two new heteropolytungstate-based compounds [EMIM]₄[SiW₁₂O₄₀] (1) and [EMIM]₆[P₂W₁₈O₆₂] · 4H₂O (2) using the ionic liquid (IL) [EMIM]Br (EMIM = 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium) as a solvent and characterized them by infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectra, thermogravimetric (TG) and elemental analyses, electrochemistry, and single-crystal X-ray analyses. Compound 1 is constructed from one [SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4? and four [EMIM]⁺. In the structure, [SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4? and [EMIM]⁺ are connected by hydrogen bonds with the surface oxygens of the polyoxoanion to form a 3-D supramolecular framework. The heteropolyanion of 2 is a classical Dawson-type structure [P₂W₁₈O₆₂]^6? and connected with six cations through hydrogen bonds. The structures of these two heteropolyanions are consistent with those synthesized by traditional methods, indicating that ionothermal synthesis is an effective method for the preparation of heteropolyoxometalates. The photocatalytic properties of these compounds have also been investigated.     

Intramolecular electron transfer within a covalent, fixed-distance donor-acceptor molecule in an ionic liquid

Intramolecular photoinduced charge separation and recombination within the donor-acceptor molecule 4-(N-pyrrolidino)naphthalene-1,8-imide-pyromellitimide, 5ANI-PI, are studied using ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy in the room-temperature ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide [EMIM][Tf2N]. The rate constants of both photoinduced charge separation and charge recombination for 5ANI-PI in [EMIM][Tf2N] are comparable to those observed in pyridine, which has a static dielectric constant similar to that of [EMIM][Tf2N] but a viscosity that is nearly 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of [EMIM][Tf2N]. The electron-transfer dynamics of 5ANI-PI in [EMIM][Tf2N] are compared to those in pyridine as a function of temperature and are discussed in the context of recently reported ionic liquid solvation studies.     

N,N'-dialkylimidazolium chloroplatinate(II), chloroplatinate(IV), and chloroiridate(IV) salts and an N-heterocyclic carbene complex of platinum(II): synthesis in ionic liquids and crystal structures

The first imidazole-type carbene complex of platinum(II), cis-(C2H4)(1-ethyl-3-methylimidazol-2-ylidene)PtCl2, has been obtained by reacting PtCl2 and PtCl4 with ethylene in the basic [EMIM]Cl/AlCl3 (1.3:1) ionic liquid (where [EMIM]+ = 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium) at 200 degrees C and structurally characterized (monoclinic P21/c space group, a = 10.416(2) A, b = 7.3421(9) A, c = 15.613(2) A, beta = 101.53(2) degrees, Z = 4). This complex can be regarded as a stable analogue of the pi-alkene-Pd(II)-carbene intermediate in the Heck reaction. In addition, a series of new N,N'-dialkylimidazolium salts of platinum group metals of the type [RMIM]2[MCln], where [RMIM+] = 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium and M = Pt(II), Pt(IV), or Ir(IV), have been prepared and characterized. The salts [EMIM]2[PtCl6] (1) and [EMIM]2[PtCl4] (2) were prepared in the ionic liquid [EMIM]Cl/AlCl3 and the salts [BMIM]2[PtCl4] (3) and [BMIM]2[PtCl6] (4) (where [BMIM]+ = 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium) and [EMIM]2-[IrCl6] (5) in aqueous or acetonitrile media. From TGA measurements, salts 1-5 decompose in air in several steps eventually to form the corresponding metal, the onset of decomposition being observed at (degree C) 260 (1), 220 (2), 200 (3), 215 (4), and 210 (5). The structures of 1, 2, and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The three salts crystallize in the monoclinic P21/n space group (1, a = 7.6433(9) A, b = 16.353(2) A, c = 9.213(1) A, beta = 113.56(1) degrees, Z = 2; 2, a = 8.601(1) A, b = 8.095(2) A, c = 13.977(2) A, beta = 91.75(2) degrees, Z = 2; 5, a = 10.353(2) A, b = 9.759(2) A, c = 10.371(2) A, beta = 92.98(3) degrees, Z = 2).
