Are ionic liquids kosmotropic or chaotropic? An evaluation of available thermodynamic parameters for quantifying the ion kosmotropicity of ionic liquids

Zhao, Hua·2006·Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology

Abstract

Ion hydration is critically important to many biological applications, including protein unfolding. However, the hydration of ionic liquids (a new type of organic salts) is not well understood. One property for characterizing the effect of ion hydration is kosmotropicity. To quantify the ion kosmotropicity, this review evaluated several thermodynamic parameters including B‐coefficients, structural entropies, structural volumes, and ion mobility. The availability and reliability of experimental data and various models for these parameters were examined for ionic liquids. The relationship and comparison of these parameters are also discussed. Smaller pyridinium and imidazolium cations in ionic liquids are more likely to be chaotropes or borderline ions owing to their hydrophobic hydration. The kosmotropicity of anions varies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
