Ammonium ionic liquids with anions of natural origin

This study was focused on presenting a new class of ionic liquids (ILs) with anions of natural origin. The salts were obtained by hydrolysis of defined triglycerides or edible vegetable oils (coconut oil and canola oil) by quaternary ammonium hydroxides. The basic physicochemical properties of the obtained products were studied and their microbial and deterrent activity was determined. Additionally, their susceptibility to biodegradation was evaluated. The described synthesis pathway utilizes vegetable oils and quaternary ammonium hydroxides as reactants in order to obtain ILs with anions of natural origin, which are characterized by specific biological activity. The majority of the prepared ILs exhibited excellent feeding deterrent properties and could be classified as readily biodegradable compounds. The employed method is characterized by low cost of substrates, high yields and high purity of the obtained products. It might potentially find application as a tool to synthesize environmentally friendly ILs with attractive properties for a wide range of applications.

Modeling of multiple equilibria in the self-aggregation of di- n -decyldimethylammonium chloride/octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether/cyclodextrin ternary systems

The surface tension equations of binary surfactant mixtures (di-n-decyldimethylammonium chloride and octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether) are established by combining the Szyszkowski equation of surfactant solutions, the ideal or nonideal mixing theory, and the phase separation model. For surfactant mixtures, the surface tension at the air-water interface is calculated using nonideal theory due to synergism between the two adsorbed surfactant types. The incorporation of cyclodextrin complexation model to the surface tension equations gives a robust model for the description of the surface tension isotherms of binary, ternary, and more complex systems involving numerous inclusion complexes. The surface tension data obtained experimentally shows excellent agreement with the theoretical model below and above the formation of micelles. The strong synergistic effect observed between the two surfactants is disrupted by the presence of CDs, leading to ideal behavior of ternary systems. Indeed, depending on the nature of the cyclodextrin (i.e., α, β, or γ), which allows a tuning of the cavity size, the binding constants with the surfactants are modified as well as the surface properties due to strong modification of equilibria involved in the ternary mixture.

Epoxy resins cured with ionic liquids as novel supports for metal complex catalysts

In this work, the application of an epoxy resin cured with ammonium ionic liquids as a support for palladium complex catalyst is reported. Supports based on epoxy resin were obtained as a result of the use of ionic liquids: didecyldimethylammonium tetrafluoroborate [d2m2am][BF 4], 1-methyltheobromine tetrafluoroborate [mthb][BF4], didecyldimethylammonium theobrominate [d2m2am][thb], didecyldimethylammonium theophyllinate [d2m2am][thp] as cross-linking agents. The characterization of polymeric supports and heterogenized palladium catalysts has involved research methods like time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The activity and stability during long-term use of the investigated catalytic systems were tested in a model Heck reaction. The influence of the type of ILs used as epoxy hardeners on the catalytic properties of epoxy-supported palladium catalysts is discussed.

Supramolecular assistance between cyclodextrins and didecyldimethylammonium chloride against enveloped viruses: Toward eco-biocidal formulations

Nosocomial infections have emerged as important causes of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised individuals. In this respect, biocides are widely used in hospitals leading to resistant microorganisms. We show here that cyclodextrins can remarkably boost the virucidal activity of di-n-decyldimethylammonium chloride. These oligosaccharides synergistically work with the biocide affording a noticeable reduction of the active virucide concentration between 40 and 85%. Partial replacement of a significant amount of the biocide by eco- and bio-compatible cyclodextrins whilst maintaining the same activity is of great interest as it allows the reduction of the toxicological drawbacks of classical biocide mixtures.

Synthesis method of amino acid quaternary amino carboxylate

The invention relates to a synthesis method of an amino acid quaternary amino carboxylate, and belongs to the technical field of compound synthesis. The synthesis method comprises: dissolving 1 mole of an alkali metal hydroxide in a volatile organic solvent with a temperature of 20-30 DEG C to obtain a solution A; dissolving 1 mole of double chain quaternary amino ammonium halide or single chain quaternary amino ammonium halide into a volatile organic solvent to obtain a solution B; mixing A and B, and removing insoluble substances to obtain a solution C; dissolving acetylated amino acid in a volatile organic solvent until the obtained solution contains 1 mole of the acetylated amino acid anions so as to obtain a solution D; and mixing C and D, and removing insoluble substances and the volatile organic solvents to obtain the product. According to the present invention, the synthesis steps are simplified, the organic reagents with characteristics of low toxicity, easy recovery and easy treatment are used, and the purity of the amino acid quaternary amino carboxylate is improved.

Preparation and characterization of new ionic liquid forms of 2,4-DP herbicide

In this study, a series of new 2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propionate-based herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs), incorporating well-known, commercially available tetraalkylammonium cations, were synthesized in high yield (≥89%) via a simple two-step procedure. Generally, at room temperature, the products comprising at least one long alkyl substituent in the cation were viscous liquids. All the synthesized salts maintained biological activity against the selected dicotyledonous weeds (common lambsquarters and cornflower). Among the tested salts, the HILs with dodecyltrimethylammonium, trimethyl(tetradecyl)ammonium and trimethyl(octadecyl)ammonium cations were characterized by the highest herbicidal efficacy against both plants. The spray solutions of the prepared HILs revealed their good surface-activation and wetting properties (contact angle = 43–63° and surface tension = 27–29 mN m?1), justifying an enhancement of the biological activity caused by the facilitated penetration of the active substance into the interior of the plant. The values of the octanol–water partition coefficient of the new salts indicate their low potential for bioaccumulation in the soil.
