Bioactive quaternary ammonium ionic liquids.

Abstract

An ionic liquid (IL) is an organic compound that contains at least one ionic bond. It consists of an organic cation and an organic or inorganic anion. It is an organic salt having a melting point below 100C. A very interesting group of IL are those with a long chain quaternary ammonium cation. They are formed by direct synthesis or by an anion-exchange reaction in quaternary ammonium halides. Popular and cheap precursors for the preparation of ionic liquids are didecyldimethylammonium chloride and benzalkonium chloride. These compounds have biological activity and are widely used in industry. Ionic liquids synthesized on the basis of these compounds often exhibit biological activity. This paper describes the methodology and results of the synthesis of new ammonium ionic liquids, their properties and the possibility of their application in industry.
