A novel chemical redox route was developed for the preparation of water-miscible imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs). In this method, the reaction between 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromides or 3-butyl-1-phenylimidazolium bromide and the appropriate acid reactant was promoted by the redox reaction between the bromide ion and aqueous hydrogen peroxide, with hex-1-ene as both solvent and bromine scavenger. The residual bromide ion and water contents of the prepared ILs were determined by ion chromatography and the Karl-Fischer test, respectively. This method not only produces water-miscible ILs in high purity and high yield, but also simplifies the reaction conditions in comparison with previous routes.

Ionic liquids are possible alternative solvents for the separation of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons by liquid-liquid extraction. Interfacial tension is an important property to consider in the design of liquid-liquid extraction processes. In this work, the liquid-liquid interfacial tension and the mutual solubility at 25 °C have been measured for a series of biphasic, equilibrated mixtures of an ionic liquid and a hydrocarbon. In particular, the ionic liquids 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (with the alkyl substituent being ethyl, hexyl or decyl), 1-ethyl-3- methylimidazolium ethylsulfate, and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methanesulfonate have been selected, as well as the hydrocarbons benzene, hexane, ethylbenzene, and octane. The selected sets of ionic liquids and hydrocarbons allow the analysis of the influence of a series of effects on the interfacial tension. For example, the interfacial tension decreases with an increase in the length of the alkyl substituent chain of the cation or with an increase of the degree of charge delocalisation in the anion of the ionic liquid. Also, the interfacial tension with the aromatic hydrocarbons is markedly lower than that with the aliphatic hydrocarbons. A smaller effect is caused by variation of the size of the hydrocarbon. Some of the observed trends can be explained from the mutual solubility of the hydrocarbon and the ionic liquid. Science China Press and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012.

A set of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium alkanesulfonate ionic liquids, [C nmim][CkSO3], formed by the variation of the alkyl chain lengths both in the cation and the anion (n = 1-6, 8, or 10; k = 1-4, or 6), was synthesised, with sixteen of them being novel. The ionic liquids were characterised by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Their viscosities and densities as a function of temperature, as well as melting points and decomposition temperatures, were determined. The molecular volumes, both experimental and calculated, were found to depend linearly on the sum (n + k). the Owner Societies 2009.
