Abstract:

The critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) of several imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) in aqueous H2O2 (50 wt % in H2O) were determined by tensiometry, conductometry, and the rate of catalytic epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene. CMC values in aqueous H2O2 were significantly lower compared to values in pure water. In both H2O2 solution and water, the CMC of all ILs decreases with an increasing alkyl chain length and increases with a rising temperature. The degree of micelle ionization of 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([OMIM][BF4]) was calculated by conductometry in a temperature range of 22-70 °C.
