Comparison of different ionic liquids pretreatment for corn stover enzymatic saccharification.
    Preparative biochemistry & biotechnology, 2014, Volume: 44, Issue:5

    Recently, application of ionic liquids (ILs) has received much attention due to their special solvency properties as a promising method of pretreatment for lignocellulosic biomass. Easy recovery of ionic liquids, chemical stability, temperature stability, nonflammability, low vapor pressure, and wide liquidus range are among those unique properties. These solvents are also known as green solvents due to their low vapor pressure. The present study was set to compare the effect of five different ILs, namely, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM][Ac]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([BMIM][Cl]), 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium diethyl phosphate ([EMIM][DEP]), 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([AMIM][Cl]), and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium-hydrogen sulfate ([EMIM][HSO₄]), on corn stover in a bioethanol production process. The performance of ILs was evaluated based on the change observed in chemical structure, crystallinity index, cellulose digestibility, and glucose release. Overall, [EMIM][Ac]-pretreated corn stover led to significantly higher saccharification, with cellulose digestibility reaching 69% after 72 hr, whereas digestibility of untreated barley straw was measured at only 21%.

Studies on the tosylation of cellulose in mixtures of ionic liquids and a co-solvent.
    Carbohydrate polymers, 2012, Jun-20, Volume: 89, Issue:2

    The tosylation of cellulose in ionic liquids (ILs) was studied. Due to the beneficial effect of different co-solvents, the reaction could be performed at 25°C without the need of heating (in order to reduce viscosity) or cooling (in order to prevent side reactions). The effects of reaction parameters, such as time, molar ratio, and type of base, on the degree of substitution (DS) with tosyl- and chloro-deoxy groups as well as on the molecular weight were evaluated. Products with a DStosyl≤1.14 and DSCl≤0.16 were obtained and characterized by means of NMR- and FT-IR spectroscopy in order to evaluate their purity and distribution of functional groups within the modified anhydroglucose unit (AGU). Tosylation of cellulose in mixtures of IL and a co-solvent was found to result in predominant substitution at the primary hydroxyl group. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) revealed only a moderate degradation of the polymer backbone at a reaction time of 4-8h. Finally, the nucleophilic displacement (SN) of tosyl- and chloro-deoxy groups by azide as well as recycling of the ILs was studied.
