The great challenges of modern industry and the environment make it important to develop sustainable energy resources with low cost. In this work, a cleaner enzymatic procedure for biodiesel production was developed through the utilization of a biocompatible and hydrophilic ionic liquid [Choline][H2PO4]. This ionic liquid can be synthesized from cheap raw materials through simple neutralization procedures, and it has been proved to be well biocompatible. The utilization of this ionic liquid in Novozym 435 catalyzed biodiesel production makes the reaction and work-up procedures very simple, because its hydrophilicity can lead to the implementation of a pseudo homogeneous reaction and then heterogeneous separation. Various oil resources such as triolein, sunflower oil and castor oil can all be converted to biodiesels with high yields. After the completion of reaction, both the ionic liquid and Novozym 435 can be recycled and reutilized for at least five cycles without a significant activity decrease. In addition, this reaction system can be conveniently scaled up to the multi-gram level with high efficiency and feasible separation. Overall, the above mentioned benefits make this ionic liquid based enzymatic system cleaner for the production of biodiesel and promising for further industrial applications.

The present study reports a facile and green approach for the synthesis of thiazolidine/oxazolidine derivatives 4(a-u) in excellent yields (92-98%) with high purity. The protocol involves a one-pot three-component reaction of substituted 1,3-diketones 1(a-g), cyanates 2(a-c) and ethylchloroacetate (3) in ionic liquid [Et3NH][HSO4] under solvent-free conditions. The notable feature of this pathway is that the ionic liquid possesses both catalytic as well as medium engineering capability in this protocol. Use of [Et3NH][HSO4] as a catalyst and an environmentally benign solvent eliminates the need for a volatile organic solvent and additional catalyst. This ionic liquid is air and water stable and easy to prepare from cheap amine and acid. The present synthetic route is a green protocol offering several advantages, such as excellent yield of products, mild reaction conditions, minimizing chemical waste, shorter reaction time, simple operational procedure, easy preparation of the catalyst and its recyclability up to five cycles without any noticeable loss in catalytic activity. The protocol is applicable to a broad substrate scope. The optimization of conditions carried out in the present study revealed that 20 mol% of ionic liquid catalyst under solvent-free conditions at 120 °C are the best reaction parameters for the synthesis of thiazolidine/oxazolidine derivatives in excellent yields.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of an ammonium ionic liquids (ILs) containing acetate, dihydrogen phosphate, and hydrogen sulfate anions with a common cation. To characterize the thermophysical properties of these newly synthesized ILs with the highly polar solvent N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), precise measurements such as densities (ρ) and ultrasonic sound velocities (u) over the whole composition range have been performed at atmospheric pressure and over wide temperature ranges (25 - 50 °C). The excess molar volume (VE) and the deviation in isentropic compressibilities (ΔKs) were predicted using these temperature dependence properties as a function of the concentration of ILs. The Redlich - Kister polynomial was used to correlate the results. The ILs investigated in the present study included trimethylammonium acetate [(CH3) 3NH][CH3COO] (TMAA), trimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate [(CH3)3NH][H2PO4] (TMAP), and trimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate [(CH3)3NH][HSO 4] (TMAS). The intermolecular interactions and structural effects were analyzed on the basis of the measured and the derived properties. In addition, the hydrogen bonding between ILs and DMF has been demonstrated using semiempirical calculations with help of Hyperchem 7. A qualitative analysis of the results is discussed in terms of the ion - dipole, ion-pair interactions, and hydrogen bonding between ILs and DMF molecules and their structural factors. The influence of the anion of the protic IL, namely, acetate (CH 3COO), dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4), and hydrogen sulfate (HSO4), on the thermophysical properties is also provided.
