The speed of sound and density of mixtures of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][triflate]) with methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and water, as well as of the pure components have been experimentally measured over the whole range of compositions at T = (278.15 to 338.15) K and atmospheric pressure. From these experimental data, the excess molar volume, excess isentropic compressibility, and excess speed of sound have been calculated and fitted to an extended version of the Redlich−Kister equation, which takes into account the dependence on composition and temperature simultaneously. The Prigogine−Flory−Patterson theory has also been used to explain the behavior of these systems.

Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria for the binary systems acetone + methanol, acetone + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][triflate]), and methanol + [emim][triflate] as well as the vapor-liquid equilibrium for the acetone + methanol + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The addition of the ionic liquid to the solvent mixture produced an important salting-out effect, and the azeotrope tended to disappear for small contents of ionic liquid. The experimental binary data sets were independently fitted with the electrolyte NRTL model, and the parameters of Mock's model were estimated for each binary system. These parameters were used to predict the ternary vapor-liquid equilibrium which agreed very well with the experimental one.
