Green, Aqueous Two-Phase Systems Based on Cholinium Aminoate Ionic Liquids with Tunable Hydrophobicity and Charge Density

Abstract: Cholinium-based ionic liquids made of aminoate anions ([Ch][AA] ILs) have been proven to have low toxicity and to be readily biodegradable. This class of ILs has great potential as a novel phase-forming component for aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) used in protein separation. In this study, environmentally benign ATPSs were prepared by using a series of [Ch][AA] ILs (where [AA] = lysinate, βalaninate, glycinate, serinate) with a thermo-separable polypropylene glycol 400 (PPG 400). These [AA] anion components d… Show more

“…ILs, commonly described as molten salts at temperatures below 100 °C, and composed of large and unsymmetrical organic cations and organic or inorganic anions, have been reported as appropriate stabilizing media for proteins and enzymes 2022. During the last years, ILs have also been applied to improve some properties of nucleic acids, mainly of DNA, such as solubility, stability and bioavailability 2329.…”

“…However, ATPSs are generally suitable for extraction of hydrophilic components, because both the top phase and bottom phase contain high percentages of water. Researchers have tried to tune the hydrophobicity of ATPSs by addition of ionic liquids (ILs) to achieve a wider hydrophilic–lipophilic range allowing for extensive separations . Despite the fascinating potential of IL‐based ATPSs, the ILs for improving the hydrophobicity of ATPSs generally are required to have long alkyl chains .…”

“…Despite the fascinating potential of IL‐based ATPSs, the ILs for improving the hydrophobicity of ATPSs generally are required to have long alkyl chains . But ILs with long alkyl chains usually exhibit high toxicity and poor biodegradability which lead to environmental pollution . So, due to the toxicity and high cost of ILs, ATPSs with hydrophobic ILs are not suitable for extraction on an industrial scale.…”

“…Moreover, some of the conventionally used ILs (i.e., imidazolium- and pyridinium-based ILs) are reported to be highly toxic (Docherty and Kulpa, 2005 ). With the rising environmental consciousness in public, the application of environmentally benign ILs (e.g., cholinium- and amino acids-based ILs) in forming ATPS has been on the rise (Song et al, 2015 , 2017 , 2018a ).…”
