Porous ionic liquids based on biocompatible CD-MOFs Biocompatible cyclodextrin-based metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOFs) form porous suspensions when dispersed in ionic liquids. We present two porous ionic liquids prepared using different CD-MOFs, which exhibit up to 56% higher carbon dioxide absorption compared to the pure ionic liquid at 303 K. These porous suspensions, when prepared under moisture-free conditions, demonstrate stability for several weeks provided smaller CD-MOF crystals are used.

Cyclodextrins: from solute to solvent A supramolecular solvent based on cyclodextrin (CD) is presented here for the first time. Indeed, a low melting mixture was obtained by mixing levulinic acid and a CD derivative, which retained its inclusion ability in the resulting solvent. This new system gives rise to a new family of solvents that could be called SUPRADES (supramolecular deep eutectic solvents). You have access to this article Please wait while we load your content...
