betadex and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-chloride

The solubility of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) in ionic liquids (ILs) and the activity coefficients at infinite dilution (γ13(∞)) of more than 20 solutes (alkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols) were measured in four chosen ionic liquids, their mixtures with β-CD, and in the β-CD at high temperatures from 338 to 398 K using the inverse gas chromatography. The intermolecular interactions, inclusion complexes and the possible increasing of the solubility of β-CD in water using the IL are presented. The solubility of β-CD in ten chosen hydrophobic ILs at the temperature T = 423 K was detected. The solid-liquid phase diagrams (SLE) of {IL (1) + β-CD (2)} binary systems at the high mole fraction of the IL were measured for three systems (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, [EMIM][Cl], 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, [EMIM][Br]; and for 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, [BMIM][Cl]). The eutectic points were determined at the high IL concentration for all binary systems. The intermolecular interaction and the possibility of inclusion complexes of the IL and/or solvents with β-CD were discussed. The infrared spectroscopy, IR was used for the description of the intermolecular interactions in the (β-CD + IL) systems. It was shown via the activity coefficients at infinite dilution results that the inclusion complexes are dependent on the temperature. The addition of β-CD to the IL does not improve the selectivity of the separation of the aliphatics from aromatics.

Using an achiral ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chlorine ([ BMIM] Cl), as an additive and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) as a chiral selector, the enantiomers of chlorpheniramine, the precursor of chloramphenicol and of loxacin were separated by capillary zone electrophoresis. This work was directed to the study of the association of [BMIM] Cl to the chiral selector beta-CD and the possible effects of [BMIM] Cl on chiral separation. Simultaneously, the separation performances were studied when only containing beta-CD in the buffer. The results showed that there are synergistic effects of [BMIM] Cl as an additive for the enantiomeric separations. [BMIM] Cl can not only remarkably increase the separation selectivity and resolution of the enantiomers, but also effectively restrain the adsorption of the sample molecules and improve the peak shape. [BMIM] Cl as an additive of chiral separation can provide a new method for the separation of chiral drugs which are hard separable under common electrophoresis conditions.
