“…These results are confirmed by previous literature reports (Chen et al 2018 ; Cvjetko Bubalo et al 2014 ; Fan et al 2019 ; Liu et al 2015 ; Yu et al 2018 ; Pawłowska et al 2019b ; Tot et al 2018 a and b; Vraneš et al 2018 ; Xu et al 2018 ). These authors prove that inhibition of root and shoot length is one of the most obvious symptoms of phytotoxicity in plants.…”

“…A very important biomarker, indicating the toxicity of chemical compounds, are the changes in the level of the dry weight of plants; therefore, this parameter is often examined in works on phytotoxicity (Biczak et al 2014 , 2017 ; Chen et al 2018 ; Pawłowska et al 2019b ). The quoted studies prove a progressive increase in the level of dry weight in plants cultivated on soil with ILs content.…”

This paper presents the influence of two bromides, tetrabutylammonium and tetrabutylphosphonium, on the growth and development of cucumber seedlings. The tests were performed at two dates, i.e. 10 and 20 days, after the introduction of increasing amounts of ionic liquids (ILs) into the soil. The applied ILs showed phytotoxicity dependent mainly on the concentration of the substance, which is proved by the inhibition of the length of aboveground parts and their roots and the yield of cucumber fresh mass, from which EC 50 values were calculated. The phytotoxicity symptoms were the result of oxidative stress, one of the manifestations of which was a decrease in assimilative pigments, linearly correlated with an increase in bromide concentration in the medium. The stress is also proven by the large increase in hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde and free proline in cucumber leaves. The reaction of this plant to oxidative stress was an increase in the activity of antioxidative enzymes such as catalase and peroxidase. As a result of statistical analysis, it was proved that all changes of biomarkers of phytotoxicity of examined ILs and oxidative stress indicators in cucumber seedlings depended more on the applied concentration of these salts than on the date of the study.

“…Liu et al [6,34] proved that the contact of plants with ILs decreases CAT activity. In contrast, Zhang et al [35], Liu et al [37], Cvjetko Bubalo et al [5] and Chen et al [44] observed an increase in the CAT activity in IL-treated plant cells. However, Herman et al [45] showed that an increase in CAT activity occurs only up to a certain concentration of the applied ILs, after which there is a decrease.…”

“…Fan et al [1] and Liu et al [43] noted an initial increase in SOD activity using low doses of ILs followed by a decrease in this enzyme activity, observed at the highest doses of the studied ILs. Chen et al [44] also reported a decrease in SOD activity in wheat seedlings with an increase in IL doses.…”

“…Herman et al [45] also proved that an increase in POD activity with a simultaneous decrease in chlorophyll content may be indicative of premature plant aging. However, Chen et al [44] reported a linear inhibition of POD activity in wheat seedlings due to imidazolium ILs. POD, unlike CAT, requires an electron donor, i.e., guaiacol, benzidine, pyrogallol, and ascorbic acid, to remove H 2 O 2 .…”

Phytotoxicity and Effect of Ionic Liquids on Antioxidant Parameters in Spring Barley Seedlings: The Impact of Exposure Time

et al. 2020

The influence of the ionic liquids (ILs) tetrabutylammonium bromide [TBA][Br], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole bromide [BMIM][Br], and tetrabutylphosphonium bromide [TBP][Br] added at different concentrations to the soil were studied for the growth and development of spring barley seedlings. Samples were harvested at three different time points: day 7, 14, and 21 after addition of ILs. The results show that [TBP][Br] was the most toxic. The introduction of this IL at the dose of 100 mg kg−1 of soil DM decreased the growth of seedlings at all test dates. The addition of the studied ILs to the soil in higher doses resulted in an increase in peroxidase and catalase activity, which may indicate the occurrence of oxidative stress in plants. An increase in the content of plant dry matter weight, contents of H2O2 and proline and a decrease in the content of photosynthetic pigments in barley seedlings were also observed. The malondialdehyde content and superoxide dismutase activity fluctuated randomly during the experiment. As a result, it was found that the phytotoxicity of ILs and the magnitude of oxidative stress in seedlings depended more on the added doses of these compounds than on the measurement date.

An Overview on Phytotoxic Perspective of Ionic Liquids and Deep Eutectic Solvents: The Role of Chemical Structure in the Phytotoxicity

et al. 2023

Ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are designable solvents having widespread applications. They have gained tremendous attention in the last few decades due to their inherent physicochemical properties, making them distinctive solvents from technological point of view. There are a large number of research articles published on physicochemical properties and applications of ILs and DESs, however, limited research work is available on the phytotoxic effect of ILs and DESs. They are considered as environmentally friendly greener solvents, however, during experimental work, it has been found that they are not always as green as desired. It has been reported that ILs and DESs have phytotoxic properties and effect both aquatic and terrestrial plants. Here the phototoxic problems of ILs and DESs are reviewed. Similar to the traditional solvents, the aforementioned solvents are not safe, and it is important to determine their phytotoxicity prior to highlighting their potential applications. This review will help researchers to design new eco‐friendly ILs and DESs, which can fulfil the twelve principles of green chemistry.
