Ionic Liquids are salts that are liquid at (or just above) room temperature. They possess several advantageous properties (e.g. high intrinsic conductivity, wide electrochemical windows, low volatility, high thermal stability and good solvating ability), which make them ideal as non-volatile electrolytes in electrochemical sensors. This mini-review article describes the recent uses of ionic liquids in electrochemical sensing applications (covering the last 3 years) in the context of voltammetric sensing at solid/liquid, liquid/liquid interfaces and carbon paste electrodes, as well as their use in gas sensing, ion-selective electrodes, and for detecting biological molecules, explosives and chemical warfare agents. A comment on the future direction and challenges in this field is also presented.

“…Singh et al [177] developed a greener electrochemical method for a chemical warfare agent (CWA) using triethyl sulfonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (TSBTSI). Addition of CWA nitrogen mustard-2 (NM-2) to TSBTSI showed a new peak in addition to an enhancement in peak current than observed for blank TSBTSI.…”

Ionic liquids (ILs) are salt that exist in the liquid phase at and around 298 K and are comprised of a bulky, asymmetric organic cation and the anion usually inorganic ion but some ILs also with organic anion. ILs have attracted much attention as a replacement for traditional organic solvents as they possess many attractive properties. Among these properties, intrinsic ion conductivity, low volatility, high chemical and thermal stability, low combustibility, and wide electrochemical windows are few. Due to negligible or nonzero volatility of these solvents, they are considered “greener” for the environment as they do not evaporate like volatile organic compounds (VOCs). ILs have been widely used in electrodeposition, electrosynthesis, electrocatalysis, electrochemical capacitor, lubricants, plasticizers, solvent, lithium batteries, solvents to manufacture nanomaterials, extraction, gas absorption agents, and so forth. Besides a brief discussion of the introduction, history, and properties of ILs the major purpose of this review paper is to provide an overview on the advantages of ILs for the synthesis of conducting polymer and nanoparticle when compared to conventional media and also to focus on the electrochemical sensors and biosensors based on IL/composite modified macrodisk electrodes. Subsequently, recent developments and major strategies for enhancing sensing performance are discussed.

“…The low features makes ILs a potential alternative to highly volatile organic solvents, hence, reducing the amount of air pollution caused through solvent evaporation [11]. Besides, ILs also known to be inflammable in nature [12], which potential to reduce the risk of fire hazard. However, there were few reports demonstrated the combustibility of several ionic liquids[13-14].…”

Green technology has become the primary concern of nations around the world. In-line with this concern, lignocellulosic biomass is often advocated as significant starting material for a greener production. However, the current biomass conversion cannot be considered as green due to the use of acid or alkaline during its pretreatment. An introduction of ionic liquids (ILs) as replacement of acids or alkaline for the pretreatment of lingo-cellulosic materials is gaining interest due to their minimal waste, nonvolatility and low toxicity and therefore considered green. This paper discusses the benefits of ILs as a green solvent for pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass.
