The availability of ionic liquids (ILs) in wide areas of application often results in the requirement on their determination. The attention is also often focused on the knowledge of hydrophobicity as it plays a key role in the biological effects, in the assessment of environmental risk and in the prediction of the fate of chemicals in the environment and of its influence on retention in RP HPLC. One can get information regarding hydrophobicity and retention mechanism if quantitative structure-retention relationships (QSRRs) are identified. The QSRRs were derived for logarithms of retention factors extrapolated to a pure water (or aqueous buffer) eluent, log k(w), determined for the pyridinium and imidazolium ionic liquid (IL) cations on two C8 (Supelcosil LC-8-DB, Symmetry C8) and two C18 (ACE 5 C18, Symmetry C18) stationary phases with isocratic elution by a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/40 mM phosphate buffer. The analyses of ILs were performed at a flow rate of 1 mL min(-1) with UV detection at 218 nm. The QSRRs were derived based on the retention parameters determined experimentally and the structural descriptors of test analytes from molecular modeling. Separations of ILs were obtained with aqueous acetonitrile buffered at pH 3.55 mobile phases. The statistically most significant two-parameter QSRR regression equations related log k(w) to the solvent accessible surface (SAS) of the analytes and the differences in the energies of the highest occupied and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (diffHL). These equations were especially good in case of columns with the highest carbon loads and larger specific surface areas, i.e. Symmetry C18 and Symmetry C8. On the other hand, the column ACE 5 C18 appeared to produce the best quality separations of the ILs studied. The QSRRs derived in the research shed light on the molecular mechanism of HPLC separation of ILs and helped to predict their relative separations.

The orthogonality of three columns coupled in two series was studied for the congener specific comprehensive two-dimensional GC separation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). A non-polar capillary column coated with poly(5%-phenyl-95%-methyl)siloxane was used as the first ((1)D) column in both series. A polar capillary column coated with 70% cyanopropyl-polysilphenylene-siloxane or a capillary column coated with the ionic liquid 1,12-di(tripropylphosphonium)dodecane bis(trifluoromethane-sulfonyl)imide were used as the second ((2)D) columns. Nine multi-congener standard PCB solutions containing subsets of all native 209 PCBs, a mixture of 209 PCBs as well as Aroclor 1242 and 1260 formulations were used to study the orthogonality of both column series. Retention times of the corresponding PCB congeners on (1)D and (2)D columns were used to construct retention time dependences (apex plots) for assessing orthogonality of both columns coupled in series. For a visual assessment of the peak density of PCBs congeners on a retention plane, 2D images were compared. The degree of orthogonality of both column series was, along the visual assessment of distribution of PCBs on the retention plane, evaluated also by Pearson's correlation coefficient, which was found by correlation of retention times t(R,i,2D) and t(R,i,1D) of corresponding PCB congeners on both column series. It was demonstrated that the apolar+ionic liquid column series is almost orthogonal both for the 2D separation of PCBs present in Aroclor 1242 and 1260 formulations as well as for the separation of all of 209 PCBs. All toxic, dioxin-like PCBs, with the exception of PCB 118 that overlaps with PCB 106, were resolved by the apolar/ionic liquid series while on the apolar/polar column series three toxic PCBs overlapped (105+127, 81+148 and 118+106).
A methodology for preparing phosphonium-based ionic liquid modified silica-based monolithic capillary columns is presented. The silica monolithic columns with dimensions of 150 × 0.1 mm were modified by a phosphonium-based ionic liquid (trioctyl(3/4-vinylbenzyl)phosphonium chloride) via 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate. The prepared columns were evaluated under hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography separation conditions, employing a sample mixture containing purine and pyrimidine bases and nucleosides. Detection was made by UV. The high efficiency of the original silica monolith was preserved even after modification, and it reached values in the range of 98,000-174,000 theoretical plates/m. The effects of the concentration of acetonitrile in the mobile phase, the presence of additives in the mobile phase, such as, acetic acid or ammonium acetate, and the pH of the mobile phase on the separation of some selected analytes were investigated. The prepared columns showed different separation selectivity compared to silica, phenyl and sulfobetaine stationary phases.

A total of 196 out of 209 polychlorobiphenyl (PCB) congeners were resolved using GC×GC-TOFMS with a non-polar/ionic liquid column series consisting of poly(50%-n-octyl-50%-methyl)siloxane and (1,12-di(tripropylphosphonium)dodecane bis(trifluoromethansulfonyl)amide) in the first and second dimension, respectively. It has been found that 13 PCB congeners overlap in five doublets (CB12+CB13, CB62+CB75, CB70+CB76, CB97+CB125 and CB153+CB168) and one triplet (CB90+CB101+CB113). All toxic, "dioxin like" congeners were separated with no interferences from any PCB congener. The 109 PCBs present in Aroclor 1242 and the 82 PCBs present in Aroclor 1260 were resolved GC×GC-TOFMS analysis on this column set.
Biphasic solvent systems composed of an ionic liquid (IL) and supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) have become frequented in synthesis, extractions and electrochemistry. In the design of related applications, information on interphase partitioning of the target organics is essential, and the infinite-dilution partition coefficients of the organic solutes in IL-scCO(2) systems can conveniently be obtained by supercritical fluid chromatography. The data base of experimental partition coefficients obtained previously in this laboratory has been employed to test a generalized predictive model for the solute partition coefficients. The model is an amended version of that described before by Hiraga et al. (J. Supercrit. Fluids, in press). Because of difficulty of the problem to be modeled, the model involves several different concepts - linear solvation energy relationships, density-dependent solvent power of scCO(2), regular solution theory, and the Flory-Huggins theory of athermal solutions. The model shows a moderate success in correlating the infinite-dilution solute partition coefficients (K-factors) in individual IL-scCO(2) systems at varying temperature and pressure. However, larger K-factor data sets involving multiple IL-scCO(2) systems appear to be beyond reach of the model, especially when the ILs involved pertain to different cation classes.
In this work we utilized basic and acidic analytes to investigate the ionic interaction participation in retention behavior of selected reversed-phase and polar columns. The test analytes included nitrate, benzenesulfonate and trimethylphenylammonium ions. The fully aqueous mobile phase comprising 10 mM dichloroacetic acid buffered with ammonia solution to desirable pH was used for retention experiments. Developed method was utilized to study the ionic interactions of stationary phases in pH range between 2.5 and 9.0. We demonstrate that selected sorbents used for reversed-phase and hydrophilic interaction chromatography separations exhibit cation- or anion-exchange interactions. We compare the results to novel Atlantis PREMIER BEH C18 AX mixed-mode column that combines reversed-phase and anion-exchange interaction modes. We evaluated the relative retention strength of selected columns for anionic and cationic analytes.
The effects of ionic liquids on model phospholipid membranes were studied by small-angle X-ray scattering, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential measurements. Multilamellar 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine liposomes and large unilamellar vesicles composed of l-α-phosphatidylcholine (eggPC) and l-α-phosphatidylglycerol (eggPG) (80:20mol%) or eggPC, eggPG, and cholesterol (60:20:20mol%) were used as biomimicking membrane models. The effects of the phosphonium-based ionic liquids: tributylmethylphosphonium acetate, trioctylmethylphosphonium acetate, tributyl(tetradecyl)-phosphonium acetate, and tributyl(tetradecyl)-phosphonium chloride, were compared to those of 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium acetate. With multilamellar vesicles, the ionic liquids that did not disrupt liposomes decreased the lamellar spacing as a function of concentration. The magnitude of the effect depended on concentration for all studied ionic liquids. Using large unilamellar vesicles, first a slight decrease in the vesicle size, then aggregation of vesicles was observed by DLS for increasing ionic liquid concentrations. At concentrations just below those that caused aggregation of liposomes, large unilamellar vesicles were coated by ionic liquid cations, evidenced by a change in their zeta potential. The ability of phosphonium-based ionic liquids to affect liposomes is related to the length of the hydrocarbon chains in the cation. Generally, the ability of ionic liquids to disrupt liposomes goes hand in hand with inducing disorder in the phospholipid membrane. However, trioctylmethylphosphonium acetate selectively extracted and induced a well-ordered lamellar structure in phospholipids from disrupted cholesterol-containing large unilamellar vesicles. This kind of effect was not seen with any other combination of ionic liquids and liposomes.

Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted increasing attention both in the scientific community and the industry in the past two decades. Their risk of being inevitable released to ecosystem lights up the urgent research on their toxicity to the environment. To reduce the time and capital consumption on testing tremendous ILs ecotoxicity experimentally, it is essential to construct predictive models for estimating their toxicity. The objective of this study is to provide a new approach for evaluating the ecotoxicity of ILs. A comprehensive ecotoxicity dataset for Vibrio fischeri involving 142 ILs, was collected and investigated. The electrostatic potential surface areas (SEP) of separate cations and anions of ILs were firstly applied to develop predictive models for ecotoxicity on Vibrio fischeri. In addition, an intelligent algorithm named extreme learning machine (ELM) was employed to establish the predictive model. The squared correlation coefficients (R2), the average absolute error (AAE%) and the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of the developed model are 0.9272, 0.2101 and 0.3262 for the entire set, respectively. The proposed approach based on the high R2 and low deviation has remarkable potential for predicting ILs ecotoxicity on Vibrio fischeri.
The large amounts of ammonia emissions generated from industrial production have caused serious environmental pollution problems, such as soil acidification, eutrophication, the formation of fine particles and changes in the global greenhouse balance, and also greatly endanger human health. At present, effectively reducing ammonia emissions or recovering ammonia is still a huge challenge. Ionic liquids (ILs) as a new class of green solvent have been introduced for ammonia absorption with great potential, but a huge number on combination systems of ILs lead to the difficulty of measuring the ammonia solubility in all ILs by experiments (e.g., danger and cost). Hereby, this study proposed a novel approach for estimating the ammonia solubility in different ILs. A predictive model was developed based on the novel Algorithm - extreme learning machine (ELM) and the molecular descriptors of electrostatic potential surface areas (SEP) as input parameters. Besides, 502 data points of ammonia solubility in 17 ILs were gathered with a wide range of pressure and temperature. For the total set, the determination coefficient (R2) and the average absolute relative deviation (AARD) of the developed model were 0.9937 and 2.95%, respectively. The regression plots revealed good consistency between predictive and experimental data points. Results show the good performance and reliability of the developed model, indicating that the proposed approach can be potentially applied for screening reasonable ILs to absorb ammonia from chemical industry processes.

The morphology, composition, and selectivity of a silica-based monolithic stationary phase, grafted by a layer of trioctyl(3/4-vinylbenzyl)phosphonium chloride ([P888VBn]Cl), is presented. The results of elemental analysis confirmed that the prepared stationary phase contains 38.8 at.% of silicon, 60.2 at.% of carbon, and 1.0 at.% of phosphorus. Capillary columns (150 × 0.1 mm) for liquid chromatography were evaluated using alkylbenzenes, monosubstituted benzenes, polyaromatic compounds, substituted benzene regioisomers, and aromatic carboxylic and amino acids. The prepared ionic liquid (IL)-based stationary phase exhibits hydrophobic, hydrophilic, and electrostatic interactions, as confirmed by experiments on the evaluation of the effect of the mobile phase composition (content of acetonitrile and ammonium formate) on the isocratic chromatographic separation. Thus, the IL-based capillary column demonstrates a unique separation selectivity compared to Phenyl-, C8-, and C18-stationary phases, and high efficiency for an expanding number of structurally diverse compounds.
