In recent years, ionic liquids have been used in pharmaceutical processes. Therefore, having a deep insight into the ion association behavior of ionic liquids in the presence of a drug is of particular importance. So, in this work, the molar conductivities of the ionic liquids, 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, [CnMIm]Br (n = 4, 6 and 8) in various concentrations of aspirin (ASA) ...

The elimination of a hydrogen bond in imidazolium based ionic liquids which results in an increased melting point is investigated by means of static quantum chemical and molecular dynamics simulations.

Porous liquids are a new class of material that could have applications in areas such as gas separation and homogeneous catalysis. Here we use a combination of measurement techniques, molecular simulations, and control experiments to advance the quantitative understanding of these liquids. In particular, we show that the cage cavities remain unoccupied in the absence of a suitable guest, and th...

applying nanoporous materials is an appropriate method for improving chemical quality of the water due to high surface area, internal porous structure (porosity), high absorption capability of harmful gases and liquids, and capability of reactivating the surface. therefore, actions were carried out in order to investigate the effect of activated carbon and zeolite on reducing the total dissolve...

The influence of the cation's central atom in the behavior of pairs of ammonium- and phosphonium-based ionic liquids was investigated through the measurement of densities, viscosities, melting temperatures, activity coefficients at infinite dilution, refractive indices, and toxicity against Vibrio fischeri. All the properties investigated are affected by the cation's central atom nature, with a...

During past few years, ionic liquids have kept attracting much attention as “green and designer” media for chemical reactions. Room-temperature ionic liquids have emerged as a potential replacement for organic solvents in catalytic processes on both laboratory and industrial scales (Holbrey & Seddon, 1999b). Literature reports on a wide range of reactions including advances in alkylation reacti...

It has been generally accepted that some ionic liquids are good media for homogeneous functionalization of cellulose. However, phthalylated cellulosic derivatives prepared in ionic liquids without any catalyst have lower DS as compared to the acetylated ones. In order to prepare the phthalylated cellulosic derivatives with higher DS, chemical modification of sugarcane bagasse cellulose with pht...

Power Ultrasound During the sonication of liquids, the accoustic wavelength range between approx. 110 and 0.15 mm for frequencies of 18kHz and 10Mhz. This is significantly higher than those of molecular dimensions, resulting in that there is between the molecules and the accoustic field no direct coupling of chemical species. The effects of sonication are mostly generated by the ultrasonic cavi...

Over recent years ionic liquids have gained in importance, causing a growing number of scientists and engineers to investigate possible applications for these liquids because of their unique physical and chemical properties. Their outstanding advantages such as nonflammable liquid within a broad liquid range, high thermal, mechanical, and chemical stabilities, low solubility for gases, attracti...
