“…Most of the applications of magnetic ionic liquids have been focused so far on extraction and separation processes. − Several extraction and/or separation techniques can be used to obtain a compound, some of which involve large volumes of toxic organic solvents. , Thus, increasing attention has been paid in recent years to the development of microtechniques resourcing to the use of greener solvents. , Moreover, to cope with poor phase separation, particularly in solvent-based extractions, the use of MILs is an asset. Indeed, MILs provide a more sustainable and efficient approach to extraction and separation processes, thanks to their unique properties of being retrievable and reusable. ,, The latter not only improves efficiency but also reduces the time and energy required for these procedures.…”

Magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) stand out as a remarkable subclass of ionic liquids (ILs), combining the desirable features of traditional ILs with the unique ability to respond to external magnetic fields. The incorporation of paramagnetic species into their structures endows them with additional attractive features, including thermochromic behavior and luminescence. These exceptional properties position MILs as highly promising materials for diverse applications, such as gas capture, DNA extractions, and sensing technologies. The present Review synthesizes key experimental findings, offering insights into the structural, thermal, magnetic, and optical properties across various MIL families. Special emphasis is placed on unraveling the influence of different paramagnetic species on MILs' behavior and functionality. Additionally, the Review highlights recent advancements in computational approaches applied to MIL research. By leveraging molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, these computational techniques have provided invaluable insights into the underlying mechanisms governing MILs' behavior, facilitating accurate property predictions. In conclusion, this Review provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on MILs, showcasing their special properties and potential applications while highlighting the indispensable role of computational methods in unraveling the complexities of these intriguing materials. The Review concludes with a forward-looking perspective on the future directions of research in the field of magnetic ionic liquids.
