چکیده

The structural and molecular mechanism of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) solvation in ten room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) is disclosed herein. We show that the Drew Dickerson B DNA structure solvated in neat RTILs based on imidazolium, oxazolium, pyrrolidinium, pyrimidinium and quaternary ammonium cations, combined with hexafluorophosphate and tetrafluorobromide anions (Figure 1), is able to maintain the native dsDNA B form confor-

Ionic liquids: Solvation ability and polarity*

The role of ionic liquids (ILs) as solvents in chemistry is limited by the poor understanding of the solvation phenomenon in these media. The usual classification criteria used for molecular solvents through various experimental measurements fail to insert ILs into a univocal classification for ILs. Here, we first discuss the unsuitability of the usual interpretative scheme for molecular liquid...

Solvation dynamics of room-temperature ionic liquids: evidence for collective solvent motion on sub-picosecond timescales

Little is known about the microscopic mechanism of solvation dynamics in room-temperature ionic liquids, but experimental studies have found that the solvent response has both sub-picosecond and nanosecond timescale components. We present the results of molecular dynamics calculations of the time-resolved fluorescence response of a chromophore in an ionic liquid, and analyze the solute–solvent ...

Solvation Force in Hard Ellipsoid Molecular Liquids with Rod-Sphere and Rod- Surface Interactions

In previous work, one of us calculated the Solvation force of hard ellipsoid fluid with hard Gaussian overlap potential using hard needle wall interaction and non-linear equation proposed by Grimson- Rickyazen. In present work, using density functional theory and extended restricted orientation model, the solvation force of hard ellipsoid fluid in presence of more realistic rod- sphere and rod-...

High-stability ionic liquids. A new class of stationary phases for gas chromatography.

Room-temperature ionic liquids are a class of non-molecular ionic solvents with low melting points. Their properties have the potential to be especially useful as stationary phases in gas-liquid chromatography (GLC). A series of common ionic liquids were evaluated as GLC stationary phases. It was found that many of these ionic liquids suffer from low thermal stability and possess unfavorable re...
