TLDR
High-resolution 13C NMR studies of cellulose and cellulose oligomers dissolved in the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C4mim]Cl) show that the beta-(1-->4)-linked glucose oligomers are disordered and have a conformational behavior which parallels the one observed in water, and thus, reveal that the polymer is disordered in IL solution as well.About:

Ionic liquid-mediated selective extraction of lignin from wood leading to enhanced enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis
TL;DR: The ionic liquid, 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium acetate ([Emim][CH3COO]), was used as a pretreatment solvent to extract lignin from wood flour, resulting in a highly concentrated solution of chemically unmodified lign in, which may serve as a valuable source of a polyaromatic material as a value‐added product.

TL;DR: A series of hydrophilic and hydrophobic 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been prepared and characterized to determine how water content, density, viscosity, surface tension, melting point, and thermal stability are affected by changes in alkyl chain length and anion.

Characterizing ionic liquids on the basis of multiple solvation interactions.
TL;DR: A linear free energy approach is used to characterize 17 RTILs on the basis of their distinct multiple solvation interactions with probe solute molecules and provides data that can be used to help identify the interactions and properties that are important for specific chemical applications.
