Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have unique physicochemical properties that make them advantageous for catalysis, such as low vapor pressure, non-flammability, high thermal and chemical stabilities, and the ability to enhance the activity and stability of (bio)catalysts. ILs can improve the efficiency, selectivity, and sustainability of bio(transformations) by acting as activators of enzymes, selectively dissolving substrates and products, and reducing toxicity. They can also be recycled and reused multiple times without losing their effectiveness. ILs based on imidazolium cation are preferred for structural organization aspects, with a semiorganized layer surrounding the catalyst. ILs act as a container, providing a confined space that allows modulation of electronic and geometric effects, miscibility of reactants and products, and residence time of species. ILs can stabilize ionic and radical species and control the catalytic activity of dynamic processes. Supported IL phase (SILP) derivatives and polymeric ILs (PILs) are good options for molecular engineering of greener catalytic processes. The major factors governing metal, photo-, electro-, and biocatalysts in ILs are discussed in detail based on the vast literature available over the past two and a half decades. Catalytic reactions, ranging from hydrogenation and cross-coupling to oxidations, promoted by homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts in both single and multiphase conditions, are extensively reviewed and discussed considering the knowledge accumulated until now.

Abstract
![]()
Recently, deep eutectic
solvents (DES) have been considered as
possible electrolytes for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to value-added products such as formic and oxalic acids.
The applicability of pure DES as electrolytes is hindered by high
viscosities. Mixtures of DES with organic solvents can be a promising
way of designing superior electrolytes by exploiting the advantages
of each solvent type. In this study, densities, viscosities, diffusivities,
and ionic conductivities of mixed solvents comprising DES (i.e., reline
and ethaline), methanol, and propylene carbonate were computed using
molecular simulations. To provide a quantitative assessment of the
affinity and mass transport of CO2 and oxalic and formic
acids in the mixed solvents, the solubilities and self-diffusivities
of these solutes were also computed. Our results show that the addition
of DES to the organic solvents enhances the solubilities of oxalic
and formic acids, while the solubility of CO2 in the ethaline-containing
mixtures are in the same order of magnitude with the respective pure
organic components. A monotonic increase in the densities and viscosities
of the mixed solvents is observed as the mole fraction of DES in the
mixture increases, with the exception of the density of ethaline-propylene
carbonate which shows the opposite behavior due to the high viscosity
of the pure organic component. The self-diffusivities of all species
in the mixtures significantly decrease as the mole fraction of DES
approaches unity. Similarly, the self-diffusivities of the dissolved
CO2 and the oxalic and formic acids also decrease by at
least 1 order of magnitude as the composition of the mixture shifts
from the pure organic component to pure DES. The computed ionic conductivities
of all mixed solvents show a maximum value for mole fractions of DES
in the range from 0.2 to 0.6 and decrease as more DES is added to
the mixtures. Since for most mixtures studied here no prior experimental
measurements exist, our findings can serve as a first data set based
on which further investigation of DES-containing electrolyte solutions
can be performed for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to useful chemicals.

Abstract
CO2 is an abundant and renewable C1 feedstock. Electrochemical transformation of CO2 can integrate CO2 fixation with renewable electricity storage, providing an avenue to close the anthropogenic carbon cycle. As a new type of green and chemically tailorable solvent, ionic liquids (ILs) have been proposed as highly promising alternatives for conventional electrolytes in electrochemical CO2 conversion. This review summarizes major advances in the electrochemical transformation of CO2 into value-added carbonic fuels and chemicals in IL-based media in the past several years. Both the direct CO2 electroreduction (CO2ER) and CO2-involved electroorganic transformation (CO2EOT) are discussed, focusing on the effect of electrocatalysts, IL components, reactor configurations and operating conditions on catalytic activity, selectivity and reusability. The reasons for the enhanced CO2 conversion performance by ILs are also discussed, providing guidance for the rational design of novel IL-based electrochemical processes for CO2 conversion. Finally, the critical challenges remaining in this research area and promising directions for future research are proposed.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Combination of microwave irradiation (MWI) and ionic liquids (IL) is widely used for the synthesis of nanoparticles (NP) via decarbonylation of zero-valent metal carbonyl precursors. However, we carefully raise a question as to whether this combination is always beneficial. Upon MWI, highly-absorbing materials such as ILs would be subject to local intense heating, likely resulting in the occurrence of localized chemical decomposition. The decomposition is expected to influence the growth mechanism of NPs due to changes in the electrostatic and steric effects. If the assumption is valid, it should be possible to decompose IL and destabilize the NPs by modifying the amplitude of the incident microwaves. In other words, it should also be possible to control the particle aggregation by circumventing the decomposition of the IL. EXPERIMENTS A series of comparative studies were conducted using a model system (i.e. [BMIm][BF4] and Ru3(CO)12). Variables were systematically controlled. After MWI, the decrease in colloidal stability of NPs was identified. FINDINGS In the formation of Ru NPs via decarbonylation, the association between incident microwave intensity, chemical decomposition of IL, and initiation of particle aggregation has been demonstrated. Conditions that can accelerate or alleviate the decomposition and the aggregation are also corroborated.

Abstract
A series of heterogeneous molecular catalysts by immobilizing nickel(ii) phthalocyanine (NiPc) onto different carbon supports were constructed to study the influence of the catalyst's microstructure on the performance of electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR). The microporous structure of the electrocatalysts could influence CO2 transfer and therefore change the CO2 concentration at the surface of the catalyst, which singnificantly impacted the CO2RR performance.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulations with many-body polarizable force fields were carried out to investigate the thermodynamic, structural, and dynamic properties of aqueous solutions of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim][BF4]). The radial distribution functions exhibit well-defined features, revealing favored structural correlations between [bmim]+, [BF4]-, and H2O. The addition of water is shown to alter ionic liquid structural organizations by replacing counterions in the coordination shells and disrupt the cation-anion network. At low water concentration, the majority of water molecules are isolated from each other and have lower average dipole moment than that in pure water. With increasing hydration level, while [bmim][BF4] ionic network breaks up and becomes isolated ion pairs or free ions in the dilute limit, water begins to form clusters of increasing sizes and eventually forms a percolating network. As a result, the average water dipole moment increases and approaches its bulk value. Water is also observed to have a substantial influence on the dynamics of ionic liquids. At low water content, the cation and anion have similar diffusion coefficients due to the correlated ionic motion of long-lived ion pairs. As the water concentration increases, both ions exhibit greater mobility and faster rotations from the breakup of ionic network. Consequently, the ionic conductivity of [bmim][BF4] aqueous solutions rises with increasing water composition.

Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of CO2 is a promising way to recycle it to produce value-added chemicals and fuels. However, the requirement of high overpotential and the low solubility of CO2 in water severely limit their efficient conversion. To overcome these problems, in this work, a new type of electrolyte solution constituted by ionic liquids and propylene carbonate was used as the cathodic solution, to study the conversion of CO2 on an Ag electrode. The linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), Tafel characterization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to study the catalytic effect and the mechanism of ionic liquids in electrochemical reduction of CO2. The LSV and Tafel characterization indicated that the chain length of 1-alkyl-3-methyl imidazolium cation had strong influences on the catalytic performance for CO2 conversion. The EIS analysis showed that the imidazolium cation that absorbed on the Ag electrode surface could stabilize the anion radical (CO2•−), leading to the enhanced efficiency of CO2 conversion. At last, the catalytic performance was also evaluated, and the results showed that Faradaic efficiency for CO as high as 98.5% and current density of 8.2 mA/cm2 could be achieved at −1.9 V (vs. Fc/Fc+).

Abstract
Electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to value-added chemicals and fuels is a promising approach for sustainable energy conversion and storage. Many electrocatalysts have been designed for this purpose and studied extensively. The role of the electrolyte is particularly interesting and is pivotal for designing electrochemical devices by taking advantage of the synergy between electrolyte and catalyst. Recently, ionic liquids as electrolytes have received much attention due to their high CO2 adsorption capacity, high selectivity, and low energy consumption. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of the recent progress in CO2 electroreduction in ionic liquid-based electrolytes, especially in the performance of different catalysts, the electrolyte effect, as well as mechanism studies to understand the reaction pathway. Perspectives on this interesting area are also discussed for the construction of novel electrochemical systems.

Abstract
Different electrolytes applied in the aqueous electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) considerably influence the catalyst performance. Their concentration, species, buffer capacity, and pH value influence the local reaction conditions and impact the product distribution of the electrocatalyst. Relevant properties of prospective solvents include their basicity, CO2 solubility, conductivity, and toxicity, which affect the CO2RR and the applicability of the solvents. The complexity of an electrochemical system impedes the direct correlation between a single parameter and cell performance indicators such as the Faradaic efficiency; thus the effects of different electrolytes are often not fully comprehended. For an industrial application, a deeper understanding of the effects described in this review can help with the prediction of performance, as well as the development of scalable electrolyzers. In this review, the application of supporting electrolytes and different solvents in the CO2RR reported in the literature are summarized and discussed.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were applied to the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR). Choline-based DESs represent a non-toxic and inexpensive alternative to room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) as additives to the system or as electrolyte. Following the study on choline-based DESs this approach was generalized and simple and organic-soluble systems were devised based on the combination of organic chloride salts with ethylene glycol (EG), allowing the chlorides to be readily used as cocatalysts in the CO2 RR. This approach negates the need for anion exchange and, because the chloride salt is usually the least expensive one, substantially reduces the cost of the electrolyte and opens the way for high-throughput experimentation.
