Expanding the Chemical Space of Benzimidazole Dicationic Ionic Liquids.

ABSTRACT: Benzimidazole dicationic ionic liquids (BDILs) have not yet been widely explored in spite of their potential. Therefore, two structurally related families of BDILs, paired with either bromide or bistriflimide anions and bearing alkyl spacers ranging from C3 to C6, have been prepared. Their thermal properties have been studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), while their electrical properties have been assessed by cyclic voltammetry (CV). TG analysis confirmed the higher stability of the bistriflimide BDILs over the bromide BDILs, with minor variation within the two families. Conversely, DSC and CV allowed for ascertaining the role played by the spacer length. In particular, the thermal behavior changed dramatically among the members of the bistriflimide family, and all three possible thermal behavior types of ILs were observed. Furthermore, cyclic voltammetry showed different electrochemical window (C₃(C₁BenzIm)₂/2Tf₂N < C₄(C₁BenzIm)₂/2Tf₂N, C₅(C₁BenzIm)₂/2Tf₂N < C₆(C₁BenzIm)₂/2Tf₂N) as well as a reduction peak potential, shape, and intensity as a function of the spacer length. The results obtained highlight the benefit of accessing a more structurally diverse pool of compounds offered by dicationic ILs when compared to the parent monocationic ILs. In particular, gains are to be found in the ease of fine-tuning their properties, which translates in facilitating further investigations toward BDILs as designer solvents and catalysts.

Synthesis and investigation of physico-chemical properties of dicationic ionic liquids.

Project description:A series of dicationic ionic liquids (ILs) including [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2, [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2, [C6(MIM)2][PF6]2 and [C4(PYR)2][PF6]2 were synthesized. Their thermal stability and melting points were analysed. It was found that dicationic ILs presented important implications in the design of homogeneous and heterogeneous system with water. A homogeneous system of dicationic ILs with water could be formed at a relatively high temperature and then a heterogeneous system was formed when the solution was cooled to a low temperature. The ILs recovered by altering the temperature were obtained in high percentage yields of [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2 (97.6%), [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2 (97.3%), [C6(MIM)2][PF6]2 (98.0%) and [C4(PYR)2][PF6]2 (94.2%). On the other hand, [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2 and [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2 exhibited good solubility in acetonitrile and acetone. A homogeneous system could be achieved with imidazolium-based ILs with a relatively low amount of water and acetonitrile at room temperature. All of the properties of dicationic ILs have a strong correlation with the nature of dications, the linkage chain and the symmetry of dications. Dicationic ILs may provide a new opportunity for some specific applications in order to enable the effective separation and isolation of products.

Dicationic ionic liquids as new feeding deterrents.

Project description:AbstractIn this study, new quaternary bis(ammonium) salts with alkyl-1,X-bis(dimethyldecylammonium) cation and saccharinate, acesulfamate, lactate and pyroglutamate anions were synthesized and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Thermal gravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry analyses confirmed that all salts were thermally stable and the majority of them exhibited melting points below 100 °C. The physicochemical properties (viscosity, density, refractive index values, and solubility) of the obtained salts were determined for three compounds with lactate anions. All the tested salts have suitable properties which, in practical application, will reduce the losses caused by the most important storage insects. Most of the synthesized ionic liquids had comparable or better deterrent activity than azadirachtin-an alkaloid known as the most active antifeedant.Graphical abstract

Heteroassembly Ability of Dicationic Ionic Liquids and Neutral Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients.

Project description:Extensive investigation of interactions and aggregation properties of IL + API systems is necessary to apply ionic liquids (ILs) with different hydrophobic characteristics to drug delivery or in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) formulations. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the heteroassembly between dicationic ILs ([BisOct(MIM)2][2X], in which X is Br or BF4, and [BisOct(BnIM)2][2Br]), both in the absence and the presence of neutral APIs (salicylic acid, ibuprofen, and paracetamol) with different functional groups. Isothermal titration calorimetry results demonstrate that IL-API associations occur at very low concentrations of IL. These results were reinforced by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry with variable collision-induced dissociation, in which the IL dication interactions with APIs were detected. The strength of the dication-API interaction was determined from E cm,1/2 data. The aggregation parameters (cac, ΔG agg °, and K) between ILs and APIs were evaluated by conductivity. The 1H NMR data showed that differences in chemical shifts provided relevant insights about interaction sites in both components.

Synthesis and characterization data of monocationic and dicationic ionic liquids or molten salts.

Project description:Data presented in this article are related with the research paper entitled "Ecotoxicity assessment of dicationic versus monocationic ionic liquids as a more environmentally friendly alternative" [1]. The present article describes the synthesis steps and characterization data of a set of twenty-six imidazolium, pyrrolidinium and pyridinium-based ionic liquids (ILs) or molten salts: nine monocationic and seventeen dicationic. Specifically, the chemical structure of the compounds was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 19F NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). Other data such as physical state at room temperature, melting point temperature (for solids at room temperature) and thermal decomposition temperature (when melting was not reached before decomposition) of the ILs or molten salts are also reported here.

Ionic Liquids as Performance Ingredients in Space Lubricants.

Project description:Low vapor pressure and several other outstanding properties make room-temperature ionic liquids attractive candidates as lubricants for machine elements in space applications. Ensuring sufficient liquid lubricant supply under space conditions is challenging, and consequently, such tribological systems may operate in boundary lubrication conditions. Under such circumstances, effective lubrication requires the formation of adsorbed or chemically reacted boundary films to prevent excessive friction and wear. In this work, we evaluated hydrocarbon-mimicking ionic liquids, designated P-SiSO, as performance ingredients in multiply alkylated cyclopentane (MAC). The tribological properties under vacuum or various atmospheres (air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide) were measured and analyzed. Thermal vacuum outgassing and electric conductivity were meas- ured to evaluate 'MAC & P-SiSO' compatibility to the space environment, including the secondary effects of radiation. Heritage space lubricants-MAC and perfluoroalkyl polyethers (PFPE)-were employed as references. The results corroborate the beneficial lubricating performance of incorporating P-SiSO in MAC, under vacuum as well as under various atmospheres, and demonstrates the feasibility for use as a multifunctional additive in hydrocarbon base oils, for use in space exploration applications.

Systematic Synthesis and Properties Evaluation of Dicationic Ionic Liquids, and a Glance Into a Potential New Field.

Project description:Dicationic ionic liquids (DILs), a subset of the ionic liquid (IL) family, have attracted growing interest in recent years, and the range of applications within which they are investigated is constantly expanding. However, data which allows structure to property correlation of a DIL is still limited, and thus selecting an appropriate salt to address a specific challenge can be problematic. In comparison to traditional ILs, DILs physico-chemical properties can be tuned by changing the length and type of spacer which connects the cationic heads as well as the type of cation. This in turn could give rise to symmetrical or asymmetrical DILs. In this work, a systematic study of a homogeneous class of 12 dibromide DILs and 12 di-carboxylate salts has been performed. The latter class of DILs were also compared to mono cation derivatives. The different traditional exchange methods to prepare carboxylate DILs have been evaluated and an insight into the drawbacks encountered is also presented. Prepared DILs were characterized (NMR, TGA, DSC) allowing the influence of the structure on their thermal stability to be understood. Most DILs were obtained as solid salts after careful drying. For some of these compounds, a new possible application was studied, namely their use as hydrogen bond acceptors (HBA) of deep eutectic mixtures, showing again some significant structural related effects.

Impact of Anions on the Partition Constant, Self-Diffusion, Thermal Stability, and Toxicity of Dicationic Ionic Liquids.

Project description:Partition constants (KD°), molecular dynamics (T1, T2, and DOSY measurements), thermal stability, and toxicity of dicationic ionic liquids (ILs) were determined. The dicationic ILs derived from 1,n-bis(3-methylimidazolim-1-yl)octane, [BisOct(MIM)2][2X] (in which X = Cl, Br, NO3, SCN, BF4, and NTf2), were evaluated to verify the influence of anion structure on the IL properties. A monocationic IL [Oct(MIM)][Br] was also monitored for comparison. In general, the solubility of the ILs followed the anion free energy of hydration (ΔG°hyd). The thermokinetic and thermodynamic functions of activation of the ILs were determined via thermogravimetric data, and it was observed that polyatomic anions influence the decomposition mechanism of these IL structures. Furthermore, [Oct(MIM)][Br] had a decomposition rate greater than that of the dicationic analogue, and the thermodynamic parameters of activation data corroborate these results. Finally, the dicationic ILs did not indicate toxic effects (LD50 > 40 mM).

Dicationic Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquid Coatings on Zirconia Surfaces: Physico-Chemical and Biological Characterization.

Project description:In the present work, dicationic imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) were investigated as multi-functional coatings on a zirconia (ZrO?) surface to prevent biofilm formation and enhance the wear performance of zirconia while maintaining the material's compatibility with host cells. ILs containing phenylalanine and methionine were synthesized and deposited on zirconia. Intermolecular interactions driving IL deposition on zirconia were studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Anti-biofilm activity and cell compatibility were evaluated in vitro after one and seven days, and wear performance was tested using a pin-on-disk apparatus. ILs were observed to form strong hydrogen bonds with zirconia. IL containing phenylalanine formed a stable film on the surface after one and seven days in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and artificial saliva and showed excellent anti-biofilm properties against Streptococcussalivarius and Streptococcussanguinis. Compatibility with gingival fibroblasts and pre-osteoblasts was maintained, and conditions for growth and differentiation were preserved. A significantly lower coefficient of friction and wear volume loss were observed for IL-coated surfaces as compared to non-coated substrates. Overall, zirconia is an emerging alternative to titanium in dental implants systems, and this study provides additional evidence of the materials' behavior and IL coatings as a potential surface treatment technology for improvement of its properties.

Expanding the fragrance chemical space for virtual screening.

Project description:The properties of fragrance molecules in the public databases SuperScent and Flavornet were analyzed to define a "fragrance-like" (FL) property range (Heavy Atom Count ≤ 21, only C, H, O, S, (O + S) ≤ 3, Hydrogen Bond Donor ≤ 1) and the corresponding chemical space including FL molecules from PubChem (NIH repository of molecules), ChEMBL (bioactive molecules), ZINC (drug-like molecules), and GDB-13 (all possible organic molecules up to 13 atoms of C, N, O, S, Cl). The FL subsets of these databases were classified by MQN (Molecular Quantum Numbers, a set of 42 integer value descriptors of molecular structure) and formatted for fast MQN-similarity searching and interactive exploration of color-coded principal component maps in form of the FL-mapplet and FL-browser applications freely available at http://www.gdb.unibe.ch. MQN-similarity is shown to efficiently recover 15 different fragrance molecule families from the different FL subsets, demonstrating the relevance of the MQN-based tool to explore the fragrance chemical space.
