Surface tension of binary mixtures of imidazolium and ammonium based ionic liquids with alcohols, or water: cation, anion effect

The surface tensions were measured at atmospheric pressure, with use of a ring tensiometer, of a series of alcoholic solutions of closely related ionic liquids: 1-methyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate, [MMIM][CH3SO4] in alcohol (methanol, or ethanol, or 1-butanol at 298.15 K), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate, [BMIM][CH3SO4] in alcohol (methanol, or ethanol, or 1-butanol at 298.15 K), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octylsulfate, [BMIM][OcSO4] in alcohol (methanol, or 1-butanol at 298.15 K) and of 1-hexyloxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [C6H(13)OCH2MIM][BF4], 1,3-dihexyloxymethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [(C6H13OCH2)2IM][BF4] in alcohol (methanol, or 1-butanol, or 1-hexanol at 308.15 and 318.5 K) and hexyl(2-hydroxyethyl)dimethylammonium bromide, C6Br in 1-octanol at 298.15 K. The set of ammonium ionic liquids of different cations and anions (C2Br, C2BF4, C2PF6, C2N(CN)2, C3Br, C4Br and C6Br) was chosen to show the influence of small amount of the ammonium ionic liquid on the surface tension of water at 298.15 K. The influence of the cation, or anion alkyl chain length on the properties under study (densities and surface tension) was tested.     

Volumetric Properties of Binary Mixtures of the Ionic Liquid 1-Butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Tetrafluoroborate with Aniline

The densities of binary mixtures of an ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [bmim][BF₄], with an aromatic compound, aniline, have been determined over the full range of compositions and over the temperature range 298.15 to 313.15 K at atmospheric pressure using a vibrating-tube densimeter (DMA4500). Excess molar volumes ( V_m^EV_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{E}} ) have been obtained from these experimental results, and were fitted by the fourth-order Redlich–Kister equation. In addition, partial molar volumes, apparent molar volumes and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been calculated for each component. Our results show that values of V_m^EV_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{E}} decrease slightly when the temperature increases in this system. The results have been interpreted in terms of ion-dipole interactions and structural factors of the ionic liquid and the organic molecular liquid.

Liquid structures of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate and carbon dioxide mixtures by X-ray diffraction measurements

X-ray diffraction measurements for the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [BMIM][BF₄], mixed with CO₂ were carried out at high pressures using our developed polymer cell. The intermolecular distribution functions obtained for [BMIM][BF₄]–CO₂ mixtures showed that CO₂ molecules are preferentially solvated to the [BF₄]⁻ anion. The similar preferential solvation was previously observed in analogous 1-btuyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, [BMIM][PF₆], with a different anion, which is in harmony with the present results in [BMIM][BF₄]–CO₂.     

Excess Molar Volumes and Excess Logarithm Viscosities for Binary Mixtures of the Ionic Liquid 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium Hexaflurophosphate with Some Organic Compounds

Experimental data of densities and viscosities are presented for the mixtures of the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexaflurophosphate, [C₄mim][PF₆], with acetone, 2-butanone, 3-pentanone, cyclopentanone and ethyl acetate at 298.15 K. Based on these data, excess molar volumes, V_m^E, and excess logarithm viscosities, (lnη)^E, have been determined for the binaries. It is shown that all values of V_m^E are negative but those of (lnη)^E are positive. Interestingly, a minimum in V_m^E and a maximum in (lnη)^E are observed at about the same mole fraction of the ionic liquid (x = 0.3) for every mixture investigated. Combined with the V_m^E data reported in literature, the effects of the [PF₆]⁻ and [BF₄]⁻ anions are compared. The results have been discussed in terms of the ion–dipole interactions of the cations of the ionic liquids with the organic compounds as well as their influence on the association of [C₄mim]⁺ and [PF₆]⁻ in the ionic liquid.     

Density and viscosity of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate with ethanol, 1-propanol, or 1-butanol at several temperatures

Densities and viscosities of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate [Bmim][NO₃], and its binaries with alcohol (ethanol, 1-propanol, or 1-butanol) were measured at different temperatures. The densities and viscosities of pure ionic liquid were correlated successfully by empirical equations. The Vogel–Fulcher–Tammann equations can fit the experimental data of viscosities for pure IL. Excess molar volume and viscosity deviations were calculated for the binaries. The excess molar volumes have negative deviations from the ideal solution.     

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.     

Excess enthalpies of (methyl propanoate or methyl pentanoate + 1-alkanol) at 298.15 K

The excess molar enthalpies H_m^E of methyl propanoate or methyl pentanoate + 1-butanol, + 1-hexanol, + 1-octanol, and + 1-decanol have been determined experimentally at 298.15 K using a Calvet microcalorimeter. For all these mixtures H_m^E > 0; the values increase with the chain length of the alkanol but decrease as the ester chain lengthens.     

Thermodynamics of Mixtures with Strongly Negative Deviations from Raoult's Law. VII. Excess Molar Volumes at 25°C for 1-Alkanol + N-Methylbutylamine Systems—Characterization in Terms of the ERAS Model

Excess molar volumes, V ^E _m, at 25^°C and atmospheric pressure, over the entire composition range for binary mixtures of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol, and 1-octanol with-methylbutylamine are reported. They are calculated from densities measured with a vibrating-tube densimeter. All the excess volumes are large and negative over the entire composition range. This indicates strong interactions between unlike molecules, which are greatest for the system involving methanol, characterized by the most negative V ^E _m. For the other solutions, V ^E _m at equimolar composition, is approximately the same. The V ^E _m curves vs. mole fraction are nearly symmetrical. The ERAS model is applied to 1-alkanol + N-methylbutylamine, and 1-alkanol + diethylamine systems. The ERAS parameters confirm that the strongest interactions between unlike molecules are encountered in solutions with methanol. The model consistently describes V ^E _m and excess molar enthalpies H ^E _m of the mixtures studied.     

Cloud point measurements of 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate with alcohols

Mutual solubility data of imidazolium-based ionic liquid, 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmmim][BF₄]) with the alcohols, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, and 1-hexanol were obtained by a cloud point method. The upper critical solution temperatures of the ionic liquid and alcohol mixtures were determined from the mutual solubility data. The upper critical solution temperature of the binary mixtures gradually increased as the chain length of the alcohol increased. The mutual solubility data of binary systems ([bmmim][BF₄] + alcohols) have been correlated by the original UNIQUAC model as well as the extended and modified form of the UNIQUAC model. The temperature dependence of the mutual solubility data could be represented in terms of the temperature dependence of the binary energy parameters obtained from the correlation. Additionally the influence of water contamination on the ionic liquid mixture was shown experimentally by adding pure water into the binary mixture ([bmmim][BF₄] + 1-butanol).

One-pot synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones,thiones and 2-selenoxo DHPMs using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate as non-halogenated ionic liquid

Abstract

1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([BMIM][HSO₄]) as a non-halogenated ionic liquid (IL) was used for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones and thiones or 2-selenoxo DHPMs in a Biginelli type multi-component reaction. By using this ionic liquid, the reaction time was significantly reduced and the products were obtained in good to high yields. Also, in this method, the synthesis of novel 2-selenoxo DHPMs is introduced in the presence of this ionic liquid and their structures were determined by ¹H and ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, and Elemental analysis.     

Estimates of Internal Pressure and Molar Refraction of Imidazolium Based Ionic Liquids as a Function of Temperature

Estimates of the internal pressure (∂ U/∂ V) _T of the ionic liquids (ILs) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [BMIM][BF₄], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [BMIM][PF₆], and 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [OMIM][BF₄] were made from experimentally determined densities and speeds of sound in the temperature range 283.15 to 343.15 K. Values (∂ U/∂ V) _T for all the ILs studied are higher than those of water and molecular organic liquids. We also measured the refractive indices n _D in the temperature range 288.15 to 343.15 K and estimated the molar refraction R _M. Refractive indices of ILs were also higher than those of normal organic liquids but were comparable to those of long hydrocarbon chain organic solvents.     

Solid–liquid equilibria for systems containing 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride

The solubility of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [C₄mim][Cl] in alcohols {ethanol, 1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-octanol, 1-decanol, 1-dodecanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol (tert-butanol)} has been measured by a dynamic method from 270 K to the melting point of the ionic liquid or to the boiling point of the solvent. The melting point, enthalpy of fusion, and the temperature of the glass phase transition were determined by differential scanning calorimetry.The solubility data were correlated by means of the Wilson, UNIQUAC ASM and modified NRTL1 equations utilizing parameters derived from the solid–liquid equilibrium data. The root-mean-square deviations of the solubility temperatures for all calculated data were higher than 0.9 K and depended on the particular equation used.

Thermophysical and Spectroscopic Studies of Pure 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium Tetrafluoroborate and Its Aqueous Mixtures

Intermolecular interactions in the aqueous mixtures of the room temperature ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM][BF₄]), have been studied. The thermophysical properties: density ρ, speed of sound u, specific conductivity κ and refractive index n _D have been measured over the whole composition range at different temperatures (293.15–323.15 K) and are discussed. The results from thermophysical measurements are explained with the help of spectroscopy. In order to interpret the nature of molecular interactions occurring between [BMIM][BF₄] and water molecules, as well as to identify the moieties in which interactions are taking place, ¹H, ¹³C NMR and FT-IR spectra of the solutions have been studied. Excess molar volume V ^E, excess molar isentropic compressibility $ K_{S}^{\text{E}} $ , partial molar excess volume $ V_{i}^{\text{E}} $ , partial molar excess isentropic compressibility $ K_{S,i}^{\text{E}} $ , deviation in specific conductivity ?κ, and deviation in refractive index ?R have also been determined and analyzed to have a better understanding of the interactions taking place between the different components. Additionally, the excess ultrasonic speed u ^E and excess isentropic compressibility $ k_{S}^{\text{E}} $ , in terms of volume fractions, have been calculated and analyzed. It has been observed that temperature has a significant effect on the thermophysical properties of the studied system. Spectroscopic measurements confirm the disruption of ion-pair interactions of [BMIM][BF₄] and hydrogen-bonded network of water in the aqueous mixture of [BMIM][BF₄].     

Excess Molar Volumes and Excess Partial Molar Volumes of Triethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether–n-Alcohol Mixtures at 25°C

We have measured excess molar volumes V^E _m of binary mixtures of triethylene glycol monoethyl ether with methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-pentanol, and 1-hexanol over the full range of compositions at 25°C. The measurements were carried out with a continuous-dilution dilatometer. The excess molar volumes V^E _m are negative over the entire range of composition for the systems triethylene glycol monoethyl ether + methanol, + ethanol, and + 1-propanol and positive for the remaining systems, triethylene glycol monoethyl ether + 1-pentanol, and + 1-hexanol. The excess V^E _m increases in the positive direction with increasing chain length of the n-alcohol. The measured excess volumes have been compared to our previous published data with an effort to assess the effects of replacing methyl by ethyl groups and of inserting oxyethylene groups. The results have been used to estimate the excess partial molar volumes V^E _m,i of the components. The behavior of V^E _m and V^E _m,i with composition and the number of carbon atoms in the alcohol molecule is discussed.     

Extraction of Metal Ions from Aqueous Solutions Using Imidazolium Based Ionic Liquids

This article represents a step towards how to choose an ionic liquid as the solvent to improve metal ion (Ag⁺ and Pb²⁺) extraction. The liquid-liquid solvent extraction is proposed with the following imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs): 1-ethyl-3-ethylimidazolium, or 1-butyl-3-ethylimidazolium, or 1-hexyl-3-ethylimidazolium bis{(trifluoromethyl)sylfonyl}imide [EEIM][NTf₂], or [BEIM][NTf₂], or [HEIM][NTf₂], or 1-butyl-3-ethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [BEIM][PF₆], or 1-hexyl-3-ethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [HEIM][PF₆] and the popular 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [BMIM][PF₆] for comparison. The effect of anion type (NTf₂⁻ versus PF₆⁻) and the effect of structural components of an ionic liquid including alkyl chain length at the cation and the ethyl substituent instead methyl at the cation, on the extraction and re-extraction processes by using dithizone as a metal chelator, were studied at 296 K. Dithizone was employed to form neutral metal-dithizone complexes with heavy metal ions to extract them from aqueous solution into the ILs.

1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids and an anionic surfactant: Excellent background electrolyte modifiers for the analysis of benzodiazepines through capillary electrophoresis

In this study, we found that adding 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as modifiers in the background electrolyte (BGE) for capillary electrophoresis enhanced the separation of benzodiazepines. In particular, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([BMIM][NTf₂]) was the best IL additive for the separation system because its anionic moiety interacted favorably with the benzodiazepines. We added SDS because of its known effect on the separation of hydrophobic analytes. We optimized the separation conditions in terms of the concentrations of the IL, SDS, and organic solvent, the pH, and the BGE's ionic strength. The optimal BGE, containing 170 mM [BMIM][NTf₂] and 10 mM SDS, provided baseline separation, high efficiency, and satisfactory peak shapes for the benzodiazepines. The separation mechanism was based on heteroassociation between the anionic moiety of the IL and the benzodiazepines, with SDS improving the resolution of the separation. The limits of detection for the seven analytes ranged from 2.74 to 4.42 μg/mL. We subjected a urine sample to off-line solid phase extraction (SPE) prior to the analysis of its benzodiazepine content. Our experimental results reveal that the combination of [BMIM][NTf₂] and SDS provides adequate separation efficiency for its application to CE analyses of benzodiazepines after SPE concentration.
