Room temperature ionic liquids (RTIL) are molten salts that are liquids at room temperature. Their liquid state makes them possible candidates as solvents in countercurrent chromatography (CCC), which uses solvents as both the mobile and stationary phases. The study focuses on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIM PF(6)), an easy to synthesize and purify RTIL whose melting point is -8 degrees C. It is shown that BMIM PF(6) behaves like a solvent of significant polarity (comparable with that of ethanol). The ternary phase diagram water-acetonitrile-BMIM PF(6) is given, because it was necessary to add acetonitrile to reduce the ionic liquid viscosity. The 40:20:40% w/ w water-acetonitrile-BMIM PF(6) biphasic liquid system was found to be appropriate as a biphasic liquid system for CCC. Different aromatic solutes, including bases, acids, and neutral compounds, were injected into the CCC column to estimate their distribution constants between the ionic liquid-rich phase and the aqueous phase. The resulting K(il/w) constants were compared with the corresponding literature octanol-water partition coefficients, K(o/w). The important drawbacks in the use of RTIL in CCC are clearly pointed out: high viscosity producing pressure build-up, UV absorbance limiting the use of the convenient UV detector, and non-volatility precluding the use of the evaporative light-scattering detector for continuous detection.
