چکیده

Ionic liquids are obvious candidates for use in electrochemical applications due to their ionic character. Nevertheless, relatively little has been done to explore their application in electrosynthesis. We have studied the Shono oxidation of arylamines and carbamates using ionic liquids as recyclable solvents and have noted that the viscosity of the medium is a major problem, although with the addition of sufficient co-solvent, good results and excellent recovery and recycling of the ionic liquid can be achieved.

Carbon-Based Nanomaterials Functionalized with Ionic Liquids for Microextraction in Sample Preparation

A large number of carbon-based nanomaterials has been investigated as sorbents in sample preparation, including fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, nanofibers, nanohorns and graphene, as well as their functionalized forms. Taking into account their properties, carbon-based nanomaterials have found a wide range of applications in different sample preparation techniques. Ionic liquids, as an alternativ...

Ionic liquids: phase diagram characterisation with combined SAXS-WAXS

1-alkyl-3-methyl-imidazolium (Cn-mim) salts are examples of ionic liquids (ILs).[1] In these salts, the cation is a bulky organic molecule: accordingly, due to factors such as the hindered ion packing and low charge density, the melting point is relatively low compared with conventional inorganic salts. As a consequence, it is possible to synthesise ILs which are liquid at room temperature. The...

Electrochemistry of sulfur and polysulfides in ionic liquids.

The electrochemistry of elemental sulfur (S(8)) and the polysulfides Na(2)S(4) and Na(2)S(6) has been studied for the first time in nonchloroaluminate ionic liquids. The cyclic voltammetry of S(8) in the ionic liquids is different to the behavior reported in some organic solvents, with two reductions and one oxidation peak observed. Supported by in situ UV-vis spectro-electrochemical experiment...

Electrochemical Applications of Room - Temperature Ionic Liquids

R3 R2 There is good evidence that the first room-temperature ionic liquid or RTIL was identified and characterized by Walden in 1914, who examined the electrical conductivity of ethylammonium nitrate.1 Thus, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the very beginnings of electrochemistry involved room-temperature ionic liquids! Although once considered to be a curious subset of the general c...

Influence of chloride, water, and organic solvents on the physical properties of ionic liquids*

We report here the first systematic study of the effect of impurities and additives (e.g., water, chloride, and cosolvents) on the physical properties of room-temperature ionic liquids. Remarkably, it was discovered that the viscosity of mixtures was dependent mainly on the mole fraction of added molecular solvents and only to a lesser extent upon their identity, allowing viscosity changes duri...
