Encyclopedia of Ionic Liquids

Introduction

Room temperature ionic liquids (ILs) are stable liquids composed of anions and cations. ILs are new advanced materials with potential use in various fields of modern chemistry and technology. Compared with conventional organic solvents, ILs have low vapor pressure, good chemical stability, strong designability, and good solubility for organic and inorganic substances. Driven by “green chemistry,” ILs are widely used in the extraction technology to concentrate and separate the substances to be tested. Provided herein are the extraction and separation of trace metal ions, drugs, and other organic matters in a variety of biological samples. ILs based extraction can reduce the interference of the complex matrix, simplify the analysis procedure, and save time. Therefore, ionic liquid, as adsorbent of solid phase extraction or extractant of liquid phase extraction, is widely used to separate and concentrate environmental pollutants like metal ions and pesticide, biomolecules...
