Abstract: Over the last two decades, extraction chromatography, a form of liquid chromatography employing as the stationary phase any of a variety of extractants in an appropriate organic solvent sorbed on a solid support, has emerged as an important tool for a number of analytical- and preparative-scale metal ion separations. Recent studies in which ionic liquids (ILs) have been evaluated as replacements for the molecular solvents normally used in liquid–liquid extraction suggest that an improvement in the performance of extraction chromatographic materials might be effected by the use of an IL as the basis for the stationary phase. In this report, approaches to the preparation of new sorbents incorporating ILs are described and the performance of the resultant materials in various metal ion separations is reviewed. In addition, promising areas for future work are identified.

TL;DR: In this paper, the high thermal stability typical of many room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) is exploited as the basis of a method employing thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for the determination of the solubility of various metal ion extractants in these solvents.
Abstract: The high thermal stability typical of many room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) is exploited as the basis of a method employing thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for the determination of the solubility of various metal ion extractants in these solvents. The approach is simple, applicable to extractants lacking functional groups that would permit their ready quantification by other methods, and requires only small (mg) quantities of sample. These features of the method, along with its limitations, are illustrated by the determination of the solubility of representative examples of several common extractant families, including bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) and di-tert-butylcyclohexano-18-crown-6 (DtBuCH18C6), in a series of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium (Cnmim+)-based ionic liquids.
