Abstract
Hydrated ionic liquid (IL) is a simple mixture of IL and water. Unique aqueous electrolyte solution can be designed by mixing IL with limited amount of water. In most hydrated ILs, there are no free water and all are strongly interacted with ions. The properties of hydrated ILs, such as polarity, viscosity, ion mobility, and hydrogen bonding ability, can therefore be controlled simply by water content. This mixture is expected to provide similar environment to that of living cell, and is desired to be effective solvents for biomolecules. In this account, we would like to survey the basic properties, recent results, and future aspects of the hydrated ILs.

Abstract
Among many kinds of ionic liquids, some hydrated ionic liquids (Hy ILs) have shown an exceptional capability to stabilize protein molecules and maintain their structure and functions over a long period. However, the complex IL-water interaction among these protein-stabilizing Hy ILs has yet to be elucidated clearly. In this work, we investigate the origin of the compatibility of ionic liquid with proteins from the viewpoint of hydration structure. We systematically analyzed the hydrogen-bonding state of water molecules around ionic liquid using Fourier transform infrared absorption (FT-IR) spectroscopy. We found that the native hydrogen-bonding network of water remained relatively unperturbed in the protein-stabilizing ILs. We also observed that the protein-stabilizing ILs have a strong electric field interaction with the surrounding water molecules and this water-IL interaction did not disrupt the water-water hydrogen-bonding interaction. On the other hand, protein-denaturing ILs perturb the hydrogen-bonding network of the water molecules to a greater extent. Furthermore, the protein-denaturing ILs were found to have a weak electric field effect on the water molecules. We speculate that the direct hydrogen bonding of the ILs with water molecules and the strong electric field of the ions lasting several hydration shells while maintaining the relatively unperturbed hydrogen-bonding network of the water molecules play an essential role in protein stabilization.

Abstract
This review presents recent developments in the application of NMR spectroscopic techniques in the study of ionic liquids. NMR has been the primary tool not only for the structural characterization of ionic liquids, but also for the study of dynamics. The presence of a host of NMR active nuclei in ionic liquids permits widespread use of multinuclear NMR experiments. Chemical shifts and multinuclear coupling constants are used routinely for the structure elucidation of ionic liquids and of products formed by their covalent interactions with other materials. Also, the availability of a multitude of NMR techniques has facilitated the study of dynamical processes in them. These include the use of NOESY to study inter-ionic interactions, pulsed-field gradient techniques for probing transport properties, and relaxation measurements to elucidate rotational dynamics. This review will focus on the application of each of these techniques to investigate ionic liquids.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been used in solvents for proteins in many applications, including biotechnology, pharmaceutics, and medicine due to their tunable physicochemical and biological properties. Protein aggregation is often undesirable, and predominantly occurs during bioprocesses, while the aggregation process can be reversible or irreversible and the aggregates formed can be native/non-native and soluble/insoluble. Recent studies have clearly identified key properties of ILs and IL-water mixtures related to protein performance, suggesting the use of the tailorable properties of ILs to inhibit protein aggregation, to promote protein crystallization, and to control protein aggregation pathways. This review discusses the critical properties of IL and IL-water mixtures and presents the latest understanding of the protein aggregation pathways and the development of IL systems that affect or control the protein aggregation process. Through this feature article, we hope to inspire further advances in understanding and new approaches to controlling protein behavior to optimize bioprocesses.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) such as choline dihydrogen phosphate exhibit an extraordinary solubilizing ability for proteins such as cytochrome C when mixed with 20 wt % water. Most widely used imidazolium-based ionic liquids coupled with dihydrogen phosphate do not exhibit the same solubilizing properties, suggesting that a multifunctional cation such as choline might play a key role in enhancing these properties of ionic liquid mixtures with water. In this theoretical work, we compare intermolecular interactions between the water molecule and ionic liquid ions in two ion-paired clusters of choline- and 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium-based ionic liquids coupled with acetate, dihydrogen phosphate, and mesylate. Gibbs free energy (GFE) of solvation of water in these ionic liquids was calculated. Incorporation of a water molecule into ionic liquid clusters was accompanied by negative GFEs of solvation in both types of cations. These results were in good agreement with previously reported experimental GFEs of solvation of water in ILs. Compared to imidazolium-based clusters, strong interionic interactions of choline ionic liquids resulted in more negative GFEs due to their smaller deformation upon the addition of a water molecule, with dihydrogen phosphate and mesylate predicting the lowest GFEs of -30.1 and -43.5 kJ/mol-1, respectively. Lower GFEs of solvation of water in choline-based clusters were also accompanied with smaller entropic penalties, suggesting that water easily incorporates itself into the existing ionic network. Analysis of the intramolecular bonds within the water molecule showed that the choline hydroxyl group donates electron density to the neighboring water molecule, leading to additional polarization. The predicted infrared spectra of clusters of ionic liquids with water showed a pronounced red shift due to strongly polarized O-H bonds, in excellent agreement with the experimentally measured infrared spectra of ionic liquid mixtures with water. Increased polarization of water in choline-based ionic liquids undoubtedly creates more effective solvents for stabilizing biological molecules such as proteins.

Abstract
The solubility of cellulose was systematically assessed in organic onium/inium hydroxide aqueous solutions (OHAS) having assorted cations, such as phosphonium, ammonium, piperidinium, morpholinium, pyrrolidinium, and cholinium. From a dissolution test of cellulose in OHAS, it was confirmed that the single most important factor in the dissolution is the high concentration of OHAS. In addition, having a weaker hydrogen bond network around OH and H2O was found to be important to facilitate the cellulose dissolution. In NMR analysis, the OHAS with an excellent cellulose solubility, such as tetrabutylphosphonium hydroxide ([P4444]OH), exhibited a chemical shift of water (δH2O) integrated with that of OH in the low frequency region (∼4.9 ppm), while choline hydroxide ([Ch]OH) with poor cellulose solubility showed δH2O higher than 5.2 ppm. A higher δH2O means that the protons are deshielded due to a stronger hydrogen bond network around H2O and OH, which indicates a strong self-associating property of OHAS that is unfavourable for the cellulose dissolution. Assuming that the strong self-associating property can be reduced by improving the hydrophobicity of organic cations, the methyl group in N-butyl-N-methylmorpholinium hydroxide ([Mor14]OH) was replaced by a butyl chain to shield the positive charge. While [Mor14]OH dissolved only 5 wt% of cellulose, the solubility in the synthesised OHAS, N,N-dibutylmorpholinium hydroxide ([Mor44]OH), was successfully improved to 20 wt%. In the present paper, cellulose solubility was also analysed in relation to the Kamlet-Taft parameters.

Abstract
The correlation between the water contribution to hydrogen bonding within ionic sublayer, mesophase order parameter, and ion translational self-diffusion in the layered ionic liquid crystalline phase is investigated. Changes in hydrogen bonding, conformational and translational dynamics, and orientational order upon hydration were followed by solid-state NMR combined with density functional theory (DFT) analysis. We observed that the smectic mesophase of monohydrated imidazolium-based ionic liquids, which was stabilized in a wider temperature range compared to that of anhydrous materials, counterintuitively exhibited a lower orientational order of organic cations. Thus the role of anisotropic alignment of cations and contribution of dispersion forces in the mesophase stability decreased upon hydration. The local dynamics of cations is controlled by the alignment of the bulky methyl-imidazolium ring, experiencing strong electrostatic and H-bond interactions in the ionic sublayer. Anisotropy of translational diffusion increased in the hydrated samples, thus supporting the layer-stabilizing effect of water. The effect of decreasing molecular order is outweighed by the contribution of water hydrogen bonding to the overall interaction energy within the ionic sublayer.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) and their aqueous solutions are emerging media for solving and manipulating biochemical molecules such as proteins. Unleashing the full potential however requires a detailed mechanistic understanding of how suitable protic and aprotic ILs behave in the presence of water in the first place. The present work aims at making an important step by performing a combined experimental and computational study of two selected ILs and their mixtures with water: the aprotic cholinium propionate ([Chl][Pro]) and the protic N-methyl-2-pyrrolidonium propionate ([NMP][Pro]). IR and Raman spectroscopy reveal stronger ion-solvent interactions in [Chl][Pro]-H2O systems compared to [NMP][Pro]-H2O mixtures. This can be explained by the tightly packed ion-pair associations in [NMP][Pro] comprising the protic -N+-H counterpart, which allows the establishment of highly directional and strong interionic hydrogen bonds. The spectral decomposition of the O-D stretching band into three sub-peaks showed that the protic [NMP][Pro] favors the self-association of water molecules. On the other hand, the predominant fraction of water-anion/cation aggregates exists in aprotic [Chl][Pro]. These hydrated systems can be envisaged using quantum-chemical calculations in the following way: H2O[Chl]+H2O[Pro]-H2O and H2O[NMP]+[Pro]-H2O, which implied preferable solvent-shared ion-pair (SIP) configurations for [Chl][Pro]-H2O systems, whereas the contact ion-pair (CIP) state prevails for the [NMP][Pro]-H2O systems. The latter holds even in the water-rich regime. In future work, these findings will be the basis for an understanding of the underlying principles that govern the interactions of ions with bio-molecules in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are regarded as designable solvents finding use in a variety of applications. One of the challenges of the design and selection process is to understand the ionic liquid properties. In this work, we selected seven ILs containing three types of hydrophilic anions and examined several key properties, which are correlated to hydrophobicity. In particular, we measured the hydrogen bond basicity β and water activity aw of IL and IL-water mixtures, and suggested that these two properties are linearly correlated particularly in hydrated ILs. We then used NMR to evaluate the chemical shift of H2O in hydrated ILs. Correlating the outcomes of each of these techniques with respect to understanding the hydrophobicity of the ILs is discussed. It is shown that water activity aw is the most facile technique to represent and understand hydrophobicity of ILs.

Abstract
We investigated the hydration states of cholinium phosphate-type ionic liquids (ILs) in relation to ion structure, focusing on the influence of the hydroxyl group of the cation and the alkyl chain length of the anion. Water activity measurements provided information on the macroscopic hydration states of the hydrated ILs, while NMR measurements and molecular dynamics simulations clearly showed the microscopic interactions and coordination of the water molecules. The hydrogen bonding networks in these ILs were influenced by the anion structure and water content, and the mobility of water molecules was influenced by the number of hydroxyl groups in the cation and anion.

Abstract
The nanostructure of a series of choline chloride/urea/water deep eutectic solvent mixtures was characterized across a wide hydration range by neutron total scattering and empirical potential structure refinement (EPSR). As the structure is significantly altered, even at low hydration levels, reporting the DES water content is important. However, the DES nanostructure is retained to a remarkably high level of water (ca. 42 wt % H2O) because of solvophobic sequestration of water into nanostructured domains around cholinium cations. At 51 wt %/83 mol % H2O, this segregation becomes unfavorable, and the DES structure is disrupted; instead, water–water and DES–water interactions dominate. At and above this hydration level, the DES–water mixture is best described as an aqueous solution of DES components.
