Alkylguanidinium based ionic liquids in a screening study for the removal of anionic pollutants from aqueous solution

Monoalkylguanidinium bis-trifluoromethane sulfonimides are water immiscible functional ionic liquids which appear as highly efficient phases for the sequestration of anionic pollutants from aqueous solutions. The new compounds show significantly enhanced extraction efficiency compared to conventional imidazolium based ionic liquids.

Guanidinium vs. ammonium surfactants in soft-templating approaches: Nanostructured silica and zwitterionic i-silica from complementary precursor-surfactant ion pairs

We investigated the behaviour of guanidinium and ammonium surfactants as structure-directing agents in template-directed hydrolysis/polycondensation processes. For this purpose, a series of guanidinium surfactants was synthesised from long-chain-substituted primary amines. In a first series of experiments, we compared nanostructured silicas obtained by means of template-directed hydrolysis/polycondensation reactions of TEOS in the presence of either guanidinium- or ammonium-based surfactants. We observed that typical MCM-41-type silicas displaying a 2D hexagonal architecture were obtained in the presence of ammonium surfactants such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). In contrast, the use of guanidinium surfactants led to the formation of hollow silica spheres or spherical silica nanoparticles. Secondly, we investigated the use of ammonium and guanidinium surfactants in the formation of periodic mesoporous organosilicas containing ionic groups (i-silica). In particular, we studied template-directed hydrolysis/polycondensation reactions of zwitterionic ammonium sulfonate and ammonium carboxylate precursors. We observed that both reactions involving the ammonium sulfonate precursor yielded structured i-silicas. In contrast, hydrolysis/polycondensation reactions of the ammonium carboxylate precursor afforded structured materials only in the presence of the guanidinium surfactant, whereas amorphous materials were obtained in the presence of CTAB. This result reflects specific surfactant-precursor interactions and suggests that the nature of both surfactant and precursor determine the formation of i-silica materials displaying regular architectures on a mesoscopic length scale. We compared ammonium and guanidinium surfactants as structure-directing agents in soft templating syntheses of nanostructured and hybrid-silica-based ionic substructures (i-silicas). Nanostructured i-silicas exist due to specific carboxylate precursor/guanidinium surfactant interactions. Results suggest that nanostructured silica hybrid materials can be obtained from complementary precursor-surfactant pairs. Copyright
