ABSTRACT
Third generation bio-ionic liquids (bio-ILs) were synthesized based on cheap and increasingly available camelina oil. The ionic liquids were obtained with high yield based on the reaction between camelina oil, which contained the following carboxylic acids C183ω-3 linolenic >30%, C201 eicosenoic 28%, C182ω-6 linoleic 13%, C181 oleic 13%, C160 palmitic 4.5%, C221 erucic 4.5% and C180 stearic 2.5%, and quaternary ammonium hydroxides comprising cations such as choline, di(hydrogenated tallow)dimethylammonium, oleylmethylbis(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium, benzalkonium, tetradecyltrimethylammonium, tetramethylammonium and didecyldimethylammonium. The synthesized bio-ILs were characterized as high viscosity liquids which are thermally stable and their solubility in water and organic solvents depended on the type of cation. Two extreme examples of bio-ILs include the water soluble one comprising choline as the cation and the one comprising the di(hydrogenated tallow)dimethylammonium cation, which is soluble in hexane. The presented results show the importance of ammonium bio-ILs as antifeedants with a wide spectrum of activity. The tested beetles (Insecta Coleoptera) of storage pests grain weevil (Sitophilus granarius (L.)), confused flour beetle (Tribolium confusum Duv.) and khapra beetle (Trogoderma granarium Ev.) presented notable differences in terms of susceptibility to the synthesized ILs. The synthesized bio-ILs are effective adjuvants for herbicides belonging to the sylfonylurea group. They exhibited high activity despite the fact they were applied at a dose almost half that used for commercial adjuvants, which opens the era of adjuvant ILs. Aside from its use in the production of biodiesel, renewable diesel and renewable jet fuel, camelina oil is starting to become a potential resource for the production of novel agrochemicals.
