Usage

General Description

1-Octyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride is a type of ionic liquid, which is a type of salt where the ions are poorly coordinated, resulting in these solvents being liquid below 100 degrees Celsius, or even at room temperature. These materials are revered for their unique properties, such as high thermal stability, low vapor pressure, and broad electrochemical window. They are typically used in various scientific and industrial processes, such as catalysts, solvents, or electrolytes. Moreover, they are often used in green chemistry due to their recyclability and ability to dissolve various substances.

Reactivity of anionic nucleophiles in ionic liquids and molecular solvents

The nucleophilic reactivity of a representative series of anions has been measured in [hmim][ClO4] 3i, [hm2im][ClO4] 3′i, and [hmim][PF6] 3l ILs in the reaction with n-alkyl methanesulfonates and compared with that found in common molecular solvents (MeOH, DMSO, PhCl). The reactivity is found to depend on both the imidazolium cation-anion interaction and the specific solvation by water present in the IL, the water playing the main effect, in particular with hydrophilic anions. Removal of the largest quantity of water remarkably increases the ion pair reactivity in the IL up to rate constant value k comparable with those obtained in DMSO and in low polarity media (PhCl).

The Influence of an Organic Salt on Micellization Behavior of Tetradecyltrimethylammonium Bromide in Aqueous Solutions of Trisubstituted Ionic Liquid [Odmim][Cl]

The influence of sodium benzoate (Na-Bz) on micellization behavior of the cationic surfactant tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) in aqueous media of trisubstituted imidazolium-based ionic liquid (IL), 1,2-dimethyl-3-octylimidazolium chloride [odmim][Cl], was investigated using conductometry, tensiometry, fluorescence,1H NMR, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), and Rheology techniques. It was observed that with an increase in salt concentration, the critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the system decrease. The CMC and various thermodynamic parameters like standard Gibbs free energy of micellization (ΔG0 m), standard enthalpy change (ΔH0 m), and standard entropy change (ΔS0 m) were calculated using conductometry and surface parameters such as surface pressure at the interface (Пcac), maximum surface excess concentration (Гmax), minimum surface area per molecule (Amin), and pC20 (adsorption efficiency) were calculated using the tensiometry technique. The aggregation number (Nagg) was calculated using fluorescence measurements. 1H NMR spectra shed light on interactions between the salt and the cationic surfactant in 0.1 wt% IL. DLS gives information about the size distribution of micelles in solution at different concentrations of salt.
