[PMID: 39145025 PMCID: PMC11320157 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e34666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is the most common plastics produced for applications in food and drinking containers. It is degraded to valuable product by several methods. Glycolysis of PET gains bis(2-hydroxyethylene) terephthalate (BHET) as the main product utilized as plasticizer. Calcium catalysts, Ca2+ and Ca(OH)2∙2H2O were explored to study the mechanism of PET cleavage by DFT calculations at B3LYP/6-311++G** level. Two possible pathways, coordination, and non-coordination of ethylene glycol on the calcium in glycolysis reaction, have been investigated. In addition, poly(ethylene furanoate) (PEF), considered as a sustainable polymer with the similar functional properties, was chose for the comparison of conformational structures with PET. The understanding of the relationship between PET (and PEF) structures and calcium catalysts is useful for the future development of linear sustainable polyesters.

ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:14406-14418. [PMID: 38559957 PMCID: PMC10975623 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c00104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
An understanding of the nature of molecular interactions among the ion pairs of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide [EMI[FSI]] can offer a starting point and significant insight into the more dynamic and multiple interactions within the bulk liquid state. In this context, close inspection of ion pair conformers can offer insight into the effects in bulk [EMI][FSI] liquid. The current work, therefore, gives a detailed analysis of the [EMI][FSI] ion pair conformers through analysis of the interaction energies, stabilization energies, and natural orbital of the ion pair conformers. The structures of the cations, anions, and cation-anion ion pairs of the conformers are optimized systematically by the ωB97X-D method with the DGDZVP basis sets, considering both the empirical dispersion corrections and the presence of a polar solvent, and the most stable geometries are obtained. The [FSI]- anions, unlike [TFSI]- anions, exist at the top position with respect to imidazolium rings. The presence of out-of-plane interactions between the [EMI]+ and [FSI]- ions is in good agreement with the stronger interactions of the [FSI]- anions with alkyl group hydrogens. The presence of out-of-plane conformers could also be related to the interaction of the anion with the π clouds of the [EMI]+ ring. In the [EMI]+ cation, the aromatic ring is π-acidic due to the presence of a positive charge in the N1-C1-N2 ring, which leads to the presence of [FSI]- anion donor [EMI]+ π-acceptor type interactions. The [EMI]+ cation and [FSI]- anions tend to form multiple σ* and π* interactions but reduce the strength of the individual contributions from a potential (linear) maximum. For the ion pair [EMI][FSI], the absolute value of the interaction energies is lower than the normal hydrogen bond energy (50 kJ/mol), which indicates that there is a very weak electrostatic interaction between the [EMI]+ cations and [FSI]- anions. The weaker attraction between the [EMI]+ and [FSI]- ions is suggested to contribute to the larger diffusion coefficients of the ions.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) exhibit fascinating properties due to special Z-bonds and have been widely used in electrochemical systems. The local Z-bond networks potentially cause a discrepancy in electrochemical properties. Understanding the correlations between the Z-bond energy (EZ-bond) and the electrochemical properties is helpful to identify appropriate ILs. It is difficult to estimate the correlations from single density functional theory calculations or molecular dynamic simulations. In this work, a machine learning model targeting the electronic density (ρBCP) of Z-bonds has been trained successfully, as expected for use in systems above the nanoscale size. The connection between the EZ-bond and the electrochemical potential window in ILs@TiO2, as well as that between the EZ-bond and the charge carrier mobility in ILs-PEDOT:Tos@SiO2, was separately investigated. This study highlights an efficient model for predicting ρBCP in nanoscale systems and anticipates exploring the connection between Z-bonds and the electrochemical properties of IL-based systems.

Abstract
We performed terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy of imidazolium-based, pyridinium-based, and tetraalkylammonium-based tetrafluoroborate ionic liquids to study their characteristic intermolecular and intramolecular vibrational modes to clarify interactions between various cations and the tetrafluoroborate anion. It was found that the central frequency of the intermolecular vibrational band for these ionic liquids has a relatively high frequency, ranging from 90 to 100 cm-1. In the 900-1150 cm-1 range, the intramolecular vibrational absorption band of the 3-fold degenerate mode of tetrafluoroborate anions in the ionic liquids was observed. Although the tetrafluoroborate anion is attributable to one of the weakly coordinated anions, the spectroscopic splitting behavior of the 3-fold degenerate mode differs depending on the cation species. It was revealed that the degenerate mode is very sensitive to local interactions between the tetrafluoroborate anion and each cation.

Abstract
Imidazolium-based poly(ionic liquids) (PILs) have been deemed as attractive candidates in the field of precious metal adsorption. However, their further performance optimization is hampered by a lack of an inner understanding of the structure-adsorption performance relationship. In this research, electron and charge distributions of the imidazolium cations are tailored by changing the N3-substitute, and their adsorption performances for PdCl42- were optimized accordingly. Furthermore, the adsorption mechanism is studied by synthesizing corresponding ionic liquid (IL) monomers and their Pd-adducts. Interestingly, longer N3 alkyl chains lead to more hydrogen bonds with PdCl42-, which is beneficial for adsorption. Whereas, it is unfavorable for attracting anions due to a decrease in electrostatic potential (ESP) around cations caused by longer alkyl chains and aromatic substituents at N3 position. It is worth noting that the ESP around the cations plays a more important role in the adsorption process, which determines the adsorption performance of the imidazolium-based PILs. Thus, the performance optimization of imidazolium-based PILs should mainly focus on increasing the ESP of imidazolium cations in the future. This research highlights the potential of the cationic structure-adsorption performance relationship of PILs, which opens a new avenue to develop adsorbents for the metallurgical industry.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are an important class of media that are usually used in combination with polar solvents to reduce costs and tune their physicochemical properties. In this regard, it is essential to understand the influence of adding solvents on the properties of ILs. In this work, the micro-heterogeneity and H-bonding interactions between a hydroxyl-functionalized IL, [HOEmim][TFSI], and acetonitrile (ACN) were investigated by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and molecular simulations. All studied IL-ACN mixtures were found to deviate from the ideal mixtures. The degree of deviations reaches the maximum at about x(ACN)=0.7 with the presence of both homogeneous clusters of pure IL/ACN and heterogeneous clusters of IL-ACN. With the addition of ACN to IL, the mixtures undergo the transformation from "ACN solvated in [HOEmim][TFSI]" to "[HOEmim][TFSI] solvated in ACN". It is found that the newly formed H-bonding interactions between the IL and ACN is the main factor that contributes to the red shifts of O-H, C2 -H, C4,5 -H, and Calkyl -H of [HOEmim]+ cation, and the blue shifts of C-D, C≡N of ACN, and C-F, S=O of [TFSI]- anion. These in-depth studies on the mixtures of hydroxyl-functionalized IL and acetonitrile would help to understand the micro-heterogeneity and H-bonding interactions of miscible solutions and shed light on exploring their applications.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have shown high catalytic activity in the degradation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), but the effects of the anions and cations, as well as the mechanism, remain ambiguous. Glycolysis is an important recycling method that converts waste PET into monomers through various chemical reactions. To reveal the role of ILs and the molecular mechanism of the glycolysis of PET, density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out for the possible pathways for the generation of bis(hydroxyethyl)terephthalate (BHET) catalyzed by isolated anions/cations and ion pairs at different sites. The pathway with the lowest barrier for the glycolysis of PET is the cleavage of the C-O ester bond, which generates the BHET monomer. The synergistic effects of the cations and anions play a critical role in the glycolysis of PET. The cations mainly attack the carbonyl oxygen of PET to catalyze the reaction, and the anions mainly form strong H-bonds with PET and ethylene glycol (EG). In terms of the mechanism, the H-bonds render the hydroxyl oxygen of EG more electronegative. The cation coordinates the carbonyl oxygen of the ester, and the hydroxyl oxygen of EG attacks the ester group carbon of PET, with proton transfer to the carbonyl oxygen. A four-membered-ring transition state would be formed by PET, EG, and the IL catalyst, which regularly accelerates the degradation of PET. These results provide fundamental help in understanding the roles of ILs and the mechanism of IL-catalyzed PET degradation.

Abstract
The rotational and translational diffusion of negatively charged and uncharged spin probes in five imidazolium-based room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, emimBF4, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, bmimBF4, 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, omimBF4, 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, omimPF6, and 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, omimCl, has been studied by means of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Detailed analyses of the spin-Hamiltonian parameters and spin exchange interactions have been carried out. The temperature dependences of the line broadening induced by the electronic dipole-dipole interaction and the electron spin exchange coupling are determined. The translational mobility of spin probes is semiquantitatively characterized and successfully explained in the framework of a hypothesis based on the assumption of polar and unpolar domains within the RTILs.

Abstract
Bismuth containing compounds are of particular interest for optical or photo-luminescent applications in sensing, bio-imaging, telecommunications, and opto-electronics and as components in non-toxic extremely dense liquids. Bismuth(III) halometallates form highly colored novel ionic liquid based solvents for which experimental characterization and fundamental understanding are limited. In this work, Bismuth(III) halometallates incorporating chloride, bromide, and iodide have been studied via density functional theory employing B3LYP-D3BJ/aug-cc-pVDZ. Lone anions, and anions in clusters with sufficient 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium [C2C1Im]+ counter-cations to balance the charge, have been investigated in the gas- phase, and with polarizable continuum solvation. Evaluation of speciation profiles indicates that dimeric or trimeric anions are prevalent. In contrast to analogous Al systems, anions of higher charge (-2, -3) are present. Speciation profiles are similar, but not identical with respect to the halide. The Bi based anions [BimXn]x- in the gas phase and generalized solvation environment produce multiple low energy conformers; moreover, key structural interaction patterns emerge from an analysis of ion-pair and neutral-cluster structures (BimXn)x-(C2C1Im)x + for x = 1, 2, and 3. Cation-anion interactions are weak; with Coulombic and dispersion forces predominating, anion-π structures are favored, while significant hydrogen bonding does not occur. Anion to cation charge transfer is minimal, but mutual polarization is significant, leading to local positive regions in the anion electrostatic potential surface. The key features of experimental x-ray photoelectron, UV-Vis spectra, and Raman spectra are reproduced, validating the computational results and facilitating rationalization of key features.

Abstract
Ionic liquids are extremely versatile and continue to find new applications in academia as well as industry. This versatility is rooted in the manifold of possible ion types, ion combinations, and ion variations. However, to fully exploit this versatility, it is imperative to understand how the properties of ionic liquids arise from their constituents. In this work, we discuss targeted modifications as a powerful tool to provide understanding and to enable design. A 'targeted modification' is a deliberate change in the structure of an ionic liquid. This includes chemical changes in an experiment as well as changes to the parameterisation in a computer simulation. In any case, such a change must be purposeful to isolate what is of interest, studying, as far as is possible, only one concept at a time. The concepts can then be used as design elements. However, it is often found that several design elements interact with each other - sometimes synergistically, and other times antagonistically. Targeted modifications are a systematic way of navigating these overlaps. We hope this paper shows that understanding ionic liquids requires experimentalists and theoreticians to join forces and provides a tool to tackle the difficult transition from understanding to design.

Abstract
Various alkyl-methylimidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) were inspected using infrared spectroscopy in the middle frequency range. In the 1050-1200 cm-1 range, there is a skeletal vibrational mode accompanied with a large in-plane +C(2)-H bending motion and +C(4)-H and +C(5)-H motions, and in the 1500-1650 cm-1 range, there are two skeletal vibrational modes with in-plane +C(4,5)-H bending motions. Interestingly, in both ranges, we found that skeletal vibrational modes with a large in-plane +C(2)-H bending motion and in-plane +C(4,5)-H bending motions are insensitive to increases in the basicity of anions or the strengthening of hydrogen bond-type interactions, and the behaviors are completely different from those in the +C-H stretching vibrational modes in the 3000-3200 cm-1 range and the skeletal vibrational modes with large out-of-plane +C-H motions in the 700-950 cm-1 range. Furthermore, in alkyl-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [C n mim+][BF4 -] ILs, we found that absorption due to the (threefold) degenerate vibrational mode of [BF4 -] was observed as a broad absorption band with three splitting peaks in the 900-1150 cm-1 range as a result of local symmetry breaking due to the cation-anion interactions.

Abstract
Oxidation of lignin to value-added aromatics through selective C-C bond cleavage via metal-free and mild strategies is promising but challenging. It was discovered that the cations of ionic liquids (ILs) could effectively catalyze this kind of strong bond cleavage by forming multiple weak hydrogen bonds, enabling the reaction conducted in air at temperature lower than 373 K without metal-containing catalysts. The cation [CPMim]+ (1-propylronitrile-3-methylimidazolium) afforded the highest efficiency in C-C bond cleavage, in which high yields (>90 %) of oxidative products were achieved. [CPMim]+ could form three ipsilateral hydrogen bonds with the oxygen atom of C=O and ether bonds at both sides of the C-C bond. The weak bonds joint effects could promote adjacent C-H bond cleave to form free radicals and thereby catalyze the fragmentation of the strong C-C. This work opens up an eco-friendly and energy-efficient route for direct valorization of lignin by enhancing IL properties via tuning the cation.

Abstract
In the last few years, ionic liquids (ILs) have been the focus of extensive studies concerning the relationship between structure and properties and how this impacts their application. Despite a large number of studies, several topics remain controversial or not fully answered, such as: the existence of ion pairs, the concept of free volume and the effect of water and its implications in the modulation of ILs physicochemical properties. In this paper, we present a critical review of state-of-the-art literature regarding structure–property relationship of ILs, we re-examine analytical theories on the structure–property correlations and present new perspectives based on the existing data. The interrelation between transport properties (viscosity, diffusion, conductivity) of IL structure and free volume are analysed and discussed at a molecular level. In addition, we demonstrate how the analysis of microscopic features (particularly using NMR-derived data) can be used to explain and predict macroscopic properties, reaching new perspectives on the properties and application of ILs.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are a special category of molten salts solely composed of ions with varied molecular symmetry and charge delocalization. The versatility in combining varied cation-anion moieties and in functionalizing ions with different atoms and molecular groups contributes to their peculiar interactions ranging from weak isotropic associations to strong, specific, and anisotropic forces. A delicate interplay among intra- and intermolecular interactions facilitates the formation of heterogeneous microstructures and liquid morphologies, which further contributes to their striking dynamical properties. Microstructural and dynamical heterogeneities of ILs lead to their multifaceted properties described by an inherent designer feature, which makes ILs important candidates for novel solvents, electrolytes, and functional materials in academia and industrial applications. Due to a massive number of combinations of ion pairs with ion species having distinct molecular structures and IL mixtures containing varied molecular solvents, a comprehensive understanding of their hierarchical structural and dynamical quantities is of great significance for a rational selection of ILs with appropriate properties and thereafter advancing their macroscopic functionalities in applications. In this review, we comprehensively trace recent advances in understanding delicate interplay of strong and weak interactions that underpin their complex phase behaviors with a particular emphasis on understanding heterogeneous microstructures and dynamics of ILs in bulk liquids, in mixtures with cosolvents, and in interfacial regions.

Abstract
Regulating the states of hydrogen bonds in ionic liquids (ILs) is an effective way to improve their catalytic performance. In this paper, disulfonic-functionalized acidic ionic liquids (DSFAILs) were synthesized successfully, including novel SO3H-functionalized binuclear IL (bis[3-(CH2)3SO3H-1-(CH2)2-Im][HSO4]2). For the biodiesel synthesis, compared with the traditional ILs catalysts, DSFAILs bis[(3-(CH2)3SO3H-1-(CH2)2-Im][HSO4]2, [Im(N (CH2)3SO3H)2][HSO4]) had higher catalytic activity even under mild reaction conditions. Using the density functional theory (DFT) method, the role of hydrogen bonds in different SO3H-functionalized acidic ionic liquids (SFAILs) was explored. The forms of hydrogen bonds existing in different ILs directly determine their acidity. It suggested that the forming status of the active sites (hydrogen bonds) were diverse in different SFAILs. Also, deep ionization of the hydrogen atoms from the cation-anion strong interaction could increase the acidity and catalytic performance of SFAILs. From this, the structure-activity relationship between the SFAILs structures and the catalytic activity of methyl oleate synthesis was proposed. Besides, the experimental results also showed that bis[3-(CH2)3SO3H-1-(CH2)2-Im][HSO4]2 catalyst had a high catalytic activity to obtain methyl oleate and the catalyst could be separated easily owing to its larger molecular weight. However, [Im(N(CH2)3SO3H)2][HSO4] had a stronger acidity and a lower steric hindrance and thus a higher catalytic activity and was the optimal catalyst for the methyl oleate synthesis. In the presence of a small amount of catalyst (6 wt %) and at low reaction temperature (353 K), the methyl oleate yield could reach up to 93%. After six recycles of the catalyst, the methyl oleate yield remained at 90%.

Abstract
Spiroborate anion-based inorganic electrolytes and ionic liquids (ILs) have fascinating electrochemical and tribological properties and have received widespread attention in industrial applications. The molecular chiralities of spiroborate anions have a significant effect on the microstructures and macroscopic functionalities of these ionic materials in application and thus deserve fundamental consideration. In the current work, we performed quantum chemistry calculations to address the binding strength and coordination structures of chiral bis(mandelato)borate ([BMB]) anions with representative alkali metal ions, as well as the electronic properties of alkali metal ion-[BMB] ion pair complexes. The optimized [BMB] conformers are categorized into V-shaped, bent, and twisted structures with varied electrostatic potential contours and conformational energies and distinct alkali metal ion-[BMB] binding structures. Alkali metal ions have additional associations with phenyl groups in V-shaped [BMB] conformers owing to preferential cation-π interactions. Furthermore, the effects of the molecular chiralities of [BMB] anions on the thermodynamics and microstructural properties of tetraalkylphosphonium [BMB] ILs were studied by performing extensive atomistic interactions. Oxygen atoms in [BMB] anions have competitive hydrogen bonding interactions with hydrogen atoms in cations depending on the molecular chiralities and steric hindrance effects of [BMB] anions. However, the molecular chiralities of [BMB] anions have a negligible effect on the liquid densities of tetraalkylphosphonium [BMB] ILs and the spatial distributions of boron atoms in anions around phosphorous atoms in cations. Enlarging tetraalkylphosphonium cation sizes leads to enhanced cation-anion intermolecular hydrogen bonding and Coulombic interactions due to enhanced segregation of polar groups in apolar networks in heterogeneous IL matrices, as verified by scattering structural functions.

Abstract
Both adsorption and graft of active components on the surface of the silica are paramount methods for preparing heterogeneous catalysts. In this paper, the acidity of [(HSO3)C3C1im]+[Cl]- adsorbed and grafted on the surface of silica clusters was calculated at the level of B3LYP-d3/6-311++g(d, p). The results showed that both methods can enhance the acidity of the ionic liquids (ILs). The hydroxyl group on the carrier surface can increase the acidity, and moreover the acidity increases with the number of hydroxyl group. Besides, geometric parameters, ESP, topology and NBO analysis proved that the ILs acidity on the hydroxyl-free surface was mainly influenced by the interaction between -SO3 group and cluster surface. And yet the ILs acidity on the hydroxylated surface changes followed with the moderate strength hydrogen bond between the ILs and cluster surface.

Abstract
Unlike typical hydrogen-bonded networks such as water, hydrogen bonded ionic liquids display some unusual characteristics due to the complex interplay of electrostatics, polarization, and dispersion forces in the bulk. Protic ionic liquids in particular contain close-to traditional linear hydrogen bonds that define their physicochemical properties. This work investigates whether hydrogen bonded ionic liquids (HBILs) can be differentiated from aprotic ionic liquids with no linear hydrogen bonds using state-of-the-art ab initio calculations. This is achieved through geometry optimizations of a series of single ion pairs of HBILs in the gas phase and an implicit solvent. Using benchmark CCSD(T)/CBS calculations, the electrostatic and dispersion components of the interaction energy of these systems are compared with those of aprotic ionic liquids. The inclusion of the implicit solvent significantly influenced geometries of single ion pairs, with the gas phase shortening the hydrogen bond to reduce electrostatic interactions. HBILs were found to have stronger interactions by at least 10EtMeNH0 kJ mol−1 over aprotic ILs, clearly highlighting the electrostatic nature of hydrogen bonding. Geometric and energetic parameters were found to complement each other in determining the extent of hydrogen bonding present in these ionic liquids.

Abstract
Comparative all-atom molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the microscopic local structure and interionic interactions of two ionic liquids (ILs) composed of the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation, [bmim]+, coupled with the hexafluorophosphate, [PF6]-, or tris(pentafluoroethyl)trifluorophosphate, [FAP]-, anions. Respective distribution functions clearly reveal that the structural correlations between the cation and anion decrease when (i) replacing [PF6]- with [FAP]-, (ii) scaling the partial atomic charges, and (iii) considering the anion's structural flexibility versus rigidity. Replacement of [PF6]- with [FAP]- expands the nonpolar domains totally and causes the decreasing of the three-dimensional polar networks as well as the diminishing of the nano-aggregation of cation side chains. Current simulations show that with increasing the anion size and its charge delocalization, the probability of the in-plane cation-anion conformation, its related hydrogen bond acceptor ability, and the cation-cation π-π interaction decreases in accordance with the fluidity enhancements of the corresponding imidazolium-based IL. Hence, structural findings can explain and justify rationally the origins of the observed trends in the simulated dynamical properties of these ILs in our previous report. A complete understanding of the microscopic structure of ILs is necessary to control the outstanding properties of ILs as designer solvents that will support experimentalists for the best engineering design and a breakthrough efficiency of IL-related processes.

Abstract
Analysis of the hydrogen bond network in aprotic ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (EMIM-TFSI) has been performed based on structures obtained from ab initio or classical molecular dynamics simulations. Statistics of different donor and acceptor atoms and the amount of chelating or bifurcated bonds has been presented. Most of the hydrogen bonds in EMIM-TFSI are formed with oxygen atoms as hydrogen acceptors; and the most probable bifurcated bonds are those with a mixed pair of oxygen and nitrogen acceptors. Spectral graph analysis has shown that the cations may form hydrogen bonds with up to five different anions and the connectivity of the whole hydrogen bond network is supported mainly by H-O bonds. In the structures of the liquid simulated via force field-based dynamics, the number of hydrogen bonds is smaller and fluorine atoms are the most favored hydrogen acceptors. One-dimensional potential energy profiles for hydrogen atom displacements and corresponding vibrational frequencies have been calculated for selected C-H bonds. Individual C-H stretching frequencies vary by 200-300 cm-1, indicating differences in local environment of hydrogen atoms forming C-H···O hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data of the ternary system acetone + chloroform + 1,3-dimethylimidazolium dimethylphosphate ([MMIM][DMP]) or 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium diethylphosphate ([EMIM][DEP]) were obtained at 101.3 kPa. Results indicated that the addition of [MMIM][DMP] or [EMIM][DEP] could eliminate the azeotropic point of the binary system of acetone + chloroform when the mole fraction of ionic liquids (ILs) was above 0.15. Besides, the experimental data could be well correlated by the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model. The structures as well as interactions between molecular solvents (acetone, chloroform) and the ion pairs ([MMIM][DMP], [EMIM][DEP]) were studied by quantum chemical calculations. The result indicated that the interaction energies (ΔE) follow the order of ΔE(acetone + [EMIM][DEP]) > ΔE(acetone + [MMIM][DMP]) > ΔE(chloroform + [EMIM][DEP]) ≈ ΔE(chloroform + [MMIM][DMP]), and chloroform had stronger affinity to ionic liquids than acetone.

Abstract
The study was carried out to evaluate the extraction efficiency of ferulic acid (FA) and vanilla acid (VA) from aqueous phase into IL phase. To achieve the highest extraction efficiency, the influence of varying key parameters was evaluated and optimized by response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design, including phase volume ratio, extraction temperature and extraction time. FA (or VA) extraction under the optimal conditions were: phase volume ratio of 1.38 (1.28), extraction temperature of 66.34 °C (49.28 °C) and extraction time of 33.83 min (36.64 min) under optimum conditions an average extraction efficiency of 97.11 ± 1.05% for FA was achieved, while VA was 85.43 ± 1.62%. This was very close to the predicted value from the model, 98.05% (86.16%). Additionally, recycling and utilization of ILs were performed well with the recovery ratio for 81.0%. Based on thermodynamic analysis, FTIR and 1H NMR analysis, the combination of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen-bond interaction resulted in the real extraction result above. It is desirable to provide a useful reference for the separation and purification of FA, VA, and extend the potential application of ionic liquid in the separation of natural active compounds with great prospects.

Abstract
The addition of highly polar and aprotic cosolvents to ionic liquids has proven to considerably decrease the viscosity of the solution and improve mass transfer in many chemical reactions. In this work, the interactions between a representative pyridinium-based ionic liquid, N-butylpyridinium dicyanamide ([Bpy][DCA]), and a cosolvent, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), were studied in detail by the combined use of attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and density functional theory calculations. Several species in the [Bpy][DCA]-DMSO mixtures have been identified, that is, ion clusters can translate into ion pairs during the dilution process. DMSO formed hydrogen bonds (H bonds) simultaneously with [Bpy]+ cations and [DCA]- anions but stronger hydrogen-bonding interactions with the [Bpy]+ cations than the [DCA]- anions, and the intrinsic hydrogen-bond networks of IL were difficult to interrupt at low DMSO concentrations. Interestingly, hydrogen-bonding interactions reach the strongest when the molar fraction of DMSO is 0.4-0.5. Hydrogen-bonding interactions are prominent in the chemical shifts of hydrogen atoms in [Bpy]+ cations, and anisotropy is the main reason for the upfield shifts of DMSO in the presence of [Bpy][DCA]. The theoretical calculations offer in-depth studies of the structural evolution and NMR calculation.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) present superior catalytic performance in the glycolysis of ethylene terephthalate (PET). To investigate the microscopic degradation mechanism of PET, density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out for the interaction between ILs and dimer, which is considered to symbolize PET. We found that hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) play a critical role in the glycolysis process. In this study, 24 kinds of imidazolium-based and tertiary ammonium-based ILs were used to study the effect of different anions and cations on the interaction with PET. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, atoms in molecules (AIM) and reduced density gradient (RDG) approaches were employed to make in-depth study of the nature of the interactions. It is concluded that the interaction of cations with dimer is weaker than that of anions and when the alkyl chain in the cations is replaced by an unsaturated hydrocarbon, the interaction will become stronger. Furthermore, anions play more important roles than cations in the actual interactions with dimer. When the hydrogen of methyl is replaced by hydroxyl or carboxyl, the interaction becomes weak for the amino acid anions and dimer. This work also investigates the interaction between dimer and ion pairs, with the results showing that anions play a key role in forming H-bonds, while cations mainly attack the oxygen of carbonyl and have a π-stacking interaction with dimer. The comprehensive mechanistic study will help researchers in the future to design an efficient ionic liquid catalyst and offer a better understanding of the mechanism of the degradation of PET. Co-interaction lead to glycolysis of ethylene terephthalate (PET) in ionic liquids (ILs): H-bonds and π-stacking.![]()
