Enhanced antimicrobial activities of 1-alkyl-3-methyl imidazolium ionic liquids based on silver or copper containing anions

We have developed a series of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachlorocuprate(ii) and dibromoargentate(i) ionic liquids with enhanced antimicrobial activity when compared with 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquids. These new ionic liquids proved to be effective against a range of pathoge...

Zusammenfassung:We have developed a series of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachlorocuprate(ii) and dibromoargentate(i) ionic liquids with enhanced antimicrobial activity when compared with 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquids. These new ionic liquids proved to be effective against a range of pathogenic bacteria and fungi.
