The Use of Cooling Crystallization in an Ionic Liquid System for the Purification of Pharmaceuticals
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Weber, CC, Kulkarni, SAKunov-Kruse, AJ, Rogers, RD, Myerson, AS
The application of ionic liquids (ILs) as solvents is frequently discussed in the context of their tunability, with the potential to tailor the solvent system uniquely to the process being investigated. Instead, here we study the potential for a single IL, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazohum...

The A Priori Design and Selection of Ionic Liquids as Solvents for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Kunov-Kruse, AJ, Weber, CCRogers, RD, Myerson, AS
In this paper we derive a straightforward computational approach to predict the optimal ionic liquid (IL) solvent for a given compound, based on COSMO-RS calculations. These calculations were performed on 18 different active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) using a matrix of 210 hypothetical...

Separate mechanisms of ion oligomerization tune the physicochemical properties of n-butylammonium acetate: cation-base clusters vs. anion-acid dimers
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Berton, P, Kelley, SPWang, H, Myerson, AS, Rogers, RD
We investigated the ability of the ions comprising protic ionic liquids to strongly interact with their neutral acid and base forms through the characterization of n-butylammonium acetate ([C4NH3][OAc]) in the presence of excess n-butylamine (C4NH2) or excess acetic acid (HOAc). The conjugate and...

Manipulation of ionic liquid anion-solute-antisolvent interactions for the purification of acetaminophen
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Weber, CC, Kunov-Kruse, AJRogers, RD, Myerson, AS
Hydrogen bond donating cosolvents have been shown to significantly reduce the solubility of acetaminophen (AAP) in ionic liquids containing the acetate anion. Reduced solubility arises from competition for solvation by the acetate anion and can be used for the design of advanced separation...
