Ionic liquids (ILs) have been exploited to improve the absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs. Custom-made ILs solubilized very high quantities of the poorly water-soluble drugs, danazol and itraconazole, and maintained drug solubilization under simulated gastro-intestinal conditions. A danazol-containing self-emulsifying IL formulation gave rise to 4.3-fold higher exposure than the crystalline drug and prolonged exposure compared with a lipid formulation.

In continuation of our earlier investigations, this report presents a rationale behind the design of a series of imidazolium based ionic liquids and their biodegradation using the CO2 headspace test (ISO 14593 method, OECD 310). The effect on biodegradability of these salts through variation of the N-substituted side chains of imidazolium ions was examined further through incorporation of various functional groups and increased alkyl chain lengths. A series of anions containing moieties known to be biodegradable were also incorporated into a number of imidazolium based salts and examined in a similar fashion.
