Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are poorly-coordinated ionic salts that can exist as a liquid at room temperatures (or <100 °C). ILs are also referred to as "designer solvents" because so many of them have been created to solve particular synthetic issues. ILs are regarded as "green solvents" because they have several distinctive qualities, including better ionic conduction, recyclability, improved solvation ability, low volatility, and thermal stability. These have been at the forefront of the most innovative fields of science and technology during the past few years. ILs may be employed in new drug formulation development and drug design in the field of pharmacy for various functions such as improvement of solubility, targeted drug delivery, stabilizer, permeability enhancer, or improvement of bioavailability in the development of pharmaceutical or vaccine dosage formulations. Ionic liquids have become a key component in various areas such as synthetic and catalytic chemistry, extraction, analytics, biotechnology, etc., due to their superior abilities along with highly modifiable potential. This study concentrates on the usage of ILs in various pharmaceutical applications enlisting their numerous purposes from the delivery of drugs to pharmaceutical synthesis. To better comprehend cuttingedge technologies in IL-based drug delivery systems, highly focused mechanistic studies regarding the synthesis/preparation of ILs and their biocompatibility along with the ecotoxicological and biological effects need to be studied. The use of IL techniques can address key issues regarding pharmaceutical preparations such as lower solubility and bioavailability which plays a key role in the lack of effectiveness of significant commercially available drugs.

Abstract
Charge scaling as an effective solution to the experiment-computation disagreement in molecular modelling of ionic liquids (ILs) could bring the computational results close to the experimental reference for various thermodynamic properties. According to the large-scale benchmark calculations of mass density, solvation, and water-ILs transfer-free energies in our series of papers, the charge-scaling factor of 0.8 serves as a near-optimal option generally applicable to most ILs, although a system-dependent parameter adjustment could be attempted for further improved performance. However, there are situations in which such a charge-scaling treatment would fail. Namely, charge scaling cannot really affect the simulation outcome, or minimally perturbs the results that are still far from the experimental value. In such situations, the vdW radius as an additional adjustable parameter is commonly tuned to minimize the experiment-calculation deviation. In the current work, considering two ILs from the quinuclidinium family, we investigate the impacts of this vdW-scaling treatment on the mass density and the solvation/partition thermodynamics in a fashion similar to our previous charge-scaling works, i.e., scanning the vdW-scaling factor and computing physical properties under these parameter sets. It is observed that the mass density exhibits a linear response to the vdW-scaling factor with slopes close to -1.8 g/mL. By further investigating a set of physiochemically relevant temperatures between 288 K and 348 K, we confirm the robustness of the vdW-scaling treatment in the estimation of bulk properties. The best vdW-scaling parameter for mass density would worsen the computation of solvation/partition thermodynamics, and a marginal decrease in the vdW-scaling factor is considered as an intermediate option balancing the reproductions of bulk properties and solvation thermodynamics. These observations could be understood in a way similar to the charge-scaling situation. i.e., overfitting some properties (e.g., mass density) would degrade the accuracy of the other properties (e.g., solvation free energies). Following this principle, the general guideline for applying this vdW-tuning protocol is by using values between the density-derived choice and the solvation/partition-derived solution. The charge and current vdW scaling treatments cover commonly encountered ILs, completing the protocol for accurate modelling of ILs with fixed-charge force fields.

Abstract
Two popular thermodynamic modeling frameworks, namely, the PC-SAFT equation of state and the COSMO-RS model, are benchmarked for their performance in predicting the thermodynamic properties of pure ionic liquids (ILs) and the solubility of CO2 in ILs. The ultimate goal is to provide an illustration of what to expect from these frameworks when applied to ILs in a purely predictive way with established parametrization approaches, since the literature generally lacks their mutual comparisons. Two different modeling approaches with respect to the description of the molecular structure of ILs are tested within both models: a cation-anion pair as (i) a single electroneutral supermolecule and (ii) a pair of separately modeled counterions (ion-based approach). In general, we illustrate that special attention should be paid when estimating unknown thermodynamic data of ILs even with these two progressive thermodynamic frameworks. For both PC-SAFT and COSMO-RS, the supermolecule approach generally yields better results for the vapor pressure and the vaporization enthalpy of pure ILs, while the ion-based approach is found to be more suitable for the solubility of CO2. In spite of some shortcomings, COSMO-RS with the supermolecule approach shows the best overall predictive capabilities for the studied properties. The ion-based strategy within both models has significant limitations in the case of the vaporization properties of ILs. In COSMO-RS, these limitations can, to a certain extent, be surpassed by additional quantum mechanical calculations of the ion pairing in the gas phase, while the ion-based PC-SAFT approach still needs a sophisticated improvement to be developed. As an initiating point, we explore one possible and simple route considering a high degree of cross associations between the counterions in the gas phase.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely used in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields as solvents or permeation enhancers. Recently, more and more researchers focused on optimizing the physicochemical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) by ILs technology. Converting APIs into ILs (API-ILs) has shown great potential for drug delivery by eliminating polymorphism, tailoring solubility, improving thermal stability, increasing dissolution, controlling drug release, modulating the surfactant properties, enhancing permeability of APIs and modulating cytotoxicity on tumor cells. In addition, API-ILs are also used in various formulations as active ingredients, such as solutions, emulsions, even tablets or nanoparticles. This paper aims to review current status of API-ILs, including the rational and design, preparation and characterization, the improvement on the physicochemical characteristics of APIs, the compatibility of API-ILs with various formulations, and the future prospects of API-ILs in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields.

Abstract
Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) calculations are performed to study the structures and carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption properties of the newly designed metal–organic framework based on the CAU-8 (CAU stands for Christian-Albrechts Universität) prototype. In the new MOFs, the 4,4′-benzophenonedicarboxylic acid (H2BPDC) linker of CAU-8 is substituted by 4,4′-oxalylbis(azanediyl)dibenzoic acid (H2ODA) and 4,4′-teraphthaloylbis(azanediyl)dibenzoic acid (H2TDA) containing amide groups (–CO–NH- motif). Furthermore, MgO6 octahedral chains where dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) decorating the axial position bridged two Mg2+ ions are considered. The formation energies indicate that modified CAU-8 is thermodynamically stable. The reaction mechanisms between the metal clusters and the linkers to form the materials are also proposed. GCMC calculations show that CO2 adsorptions and selectivities of Al-based MOFs are better than those of Mg-based MOFs, which is due to DMSO. Amide groups made CO2 molecules more intensively distributed besides organic linkers. CO2 uptakes and selectivities of MOFs containing H2TDA linkers are better in comparison with those of MOFs containing H2BPDC linkers or H2ODA linkers. Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) calculations are performed to study the structures and CO2 adsorption properties of the newly designed metal–organic framework based on the CAU-8 prototype.![]()

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.
