A green method for the synthesis of high-performance diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments using diethyl succinate in the presence of mixture of ionic liquids is reported. Although, alkaline condition is needed in the succinate ester route for synthesis of the pigments, in the present study, the replacement possibility of conventional organic base by mixture of BMIMOH and BMIMBF4 ionic liquids was inve...

We have shown that the amyloid fibrilization of Aβ16-22 follows a reverse hofmeister trend in pILs. Fast fibrilization rates of seconds can be achieved.

New sulfonic acid functionalized ionic liquids (SAFILs) with bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anions were synthesized. These ionic liquids are strong Brønsted acids and can solubilize metal oxides. Water-immiscible SAFILs were used as organic phases in solvent extraction studies.

A highly effective method for the extraction of ionic liquids from aqueous solutions has been successfully developed by the formation of associates of ionic liquids with humic acid, resulted mainly from their strong electrostatic interactions.

A conceptual design platform for new ionic liquids with variable heterocycles, bridges, symmetry, and charge was developed using simple alkylation, click, and ionic liquid chemistries and demonstrated with 1-(2-(5-tetrazolidyl)ethyl)-3-(5-1H-tetrazolyl)methylimidazolium and its conversion into room-temperature ionic liquids as cation or as anion.

The exothermic behaviour and intrinsic safety of a number of ionic liquids being considered for battery and solar cell applications have been investigated at elevated temperatures by analysing data from accelerated rate calorimetric (ARC) studies.

A direct and an efficient conversion of a wide range of primary, secondary even tertiary alcohols to the corresponding iodides have been achieved under ionic liquid conditions. The method involves preparation of ionic liquid-based iminium chloride intermediate from DMF-like ionic liquid then stirring it with alcohol in present of sodium iodide. The higher yields of alkyl iodides were obtained w...

in this work, the pc-saft equation of state (eos) has been used to model the solubility of acid gases (co2 and h2s) in two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ils) ([c8-mim][pf6] and [c8-mim][tf2n]). parameters of pure ils were estimated using experimental densities. two strategies were considered to model densities of pure ils. in strategy 1, ils were modeled as nonassociating compounds and in st...
