Quantifying Liquid Interactions in a Sequence of Amino Acid Ionic Liquids

DOI

We aim to investigate three representative systems from a family of ionic liquids based upon amino acid anions. This particular sub-group of ionic liquids has been successfully shown to be useful in such varied processes as CO2 capture, biofuel production, and chiral separations. As previous neutron scattering experiments have demonstrated, knowledge of the liquid structure of ionic liquid systems is invaluable in understanding their unique properties. Ionic liquids based on amino acid ions have a somewhat unique potential for intermolecular binding between ions, since the amino acid part contains both carboxylate and NH2 groups and, as such, their liquid structure may differ strongly from other systems already studied. This experiment aims to quantify the interactions in three amino acid ionic liquids, thus furthering our knowledge on these interesting solvents.
