Predictable changes in the rate constant of a condensation reaction were seen as the solvent composition was varied. The cation–nucleophile interaction could be controlled in a predictable manner; activation parameters varied linearly with the H-bond acceptor ability of the anions used.

Using an ionic liquid in the solvent mixture for the reaction of a galactose substrate leads to changes in both the rate constant and the products as the solvent composition changes.

The effect of a series of ionic liquids containing different anions (bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, dicyanimide, hexafluorophosphate, tetrafluoroborate, and bromide) on the rate constant of a bimolecular substitution process was investigated. A general ionic liquid effect was noted, with increases in the rate constant observed in all ionic liquids used when compared with that in acetonitrile. Temperature-dependent kinetic data allowed calculation of activation parameters in each of the reaction mixtures considered; these parameters showed that the microscopic origins of the rate enhancements observed were not the same for all of the ionic liquids used, demonstrating the importance of the nature of the anion.

Rates were determined for the solvolysis of isopropyl bromide in ethanol–water mixtures (20 to 80% by volume of ethanol) at 50 and 75 °C and the corresponding activation parameters calculated. From the partial vapor pressure of isopropyl bromide over the various solutions at 50 and 75 °C, the variations in its initial state thermodynamic parameters were calculated. Thus, the variation in the activation parameters with solvent composition could be analyzed in terms of initial and transition state contributions. The initial state variation dominates according to a unimolecular as well as to a bimolecular treatment of data.

A simple method for the synthesis of phthalazinetrione derivatives by a one-pot three-component condensation reaction of phthalhydrazide, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and aldehydes catalyzed by the ionic liquid 4-(3-methyl-1-imidazolio)-1-butanesulfonic acid hydrogen sulfate ([BSO3HmIm]HSO4) is reported. Good to excellent yields were obtained in short reaction times in the solvent PEG 600 (polyethylene glycol 600) at 120 °C. The strategy proved to be efficient and environmentally benign. The catalyst/solvent system could easily be recovered and reused for at least 5 times without noticeable loss of activity

The role of the solvent in the dissociation kinetics and cation exchange mechanisms of the complex sodium–monobenzo-15-crown-5 (Na: B15C5)+ was examined by 23Na NMR. In nitromethane (NM), the cationic exchange between the complexes takes place via an associative metal interchange mechanism, 1M. In acetonitrile (AN), it takes place via a dissociative (dissociation/recombination) mechanism. In AN–NM binary mixtures, the rate constant of the dissociative exchange (k−1) increases with the AN molar fraction, XAN, from 1.1 × 10−2 s−1 for XAN = 0 to 89 × 10−2 s−1 for XAN = 0.400 (corresponding to a decrease of the free energy of activation, ΔGdi≠ from 62.1 to 51.1 kJ mol−1 respectively, at 301.5 K). The activation parameters were ΔHdi≠ = 48 kJ mol−1 and ΔSdi≠ = −20 J K−1, mol−1 for XAN = 0.200. This rate increase was related to the concentration increase in solution of the AN monosolvated complex (AN: Na: B15C5)+. In the whole range of AN mole fractions studied, the rate constant of the associative exchange, k2, was not dependent upon XAN in the error limits: k2 ≈ 9 × 104 M−1 s−1 at 301.5 K (ΔGas≠ = 45 kJ mol−1). The activation parameters were determined to be ΔHas≠ = 23 kJ mol−1 and ΔHas≠ = −75 J K−1 mol−1. These findings are in good agreement with an associative exchange controlled mainly by the conformational changes of the ligand during the concerted partial decomplexation of a sodium cation and partial complexation of a second one, while solvation of the complexed cation plays a major role in the dissociative mechanism.

By one-step mixed-solvent mediated approach, we have prepared fluorescent organic core–shell nanoparticles with an oligomer (1) derived from the Schiff base condensation reaction of 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and o-phenylenediamine at room temperature. The core and shell structures are generated by the same oligomer (1) featuring the aggregation structure in core different from that in shell. The radial packing factor distribution of oligomer cluster depending on the solvent interaction in the time of nucleation is mainly responsible for the single component core–shell formation. Different morphologies of the core–shell nanospheres (CSNS) and core–shell nanohemispheres (CSNHS) were generated simply by changing the concentration of 1 in chloroform-methanol mixed solvent (1:2). We observed that fluorescent emission from those core–shell nanoparticles is intense whereas as-synthesized oligomer (1) itself is non-fluorescent in dilute solution. The enhanced emission in the core–shell form with more than 50 times increase in fluorescent quantum yield vis-à-vis 1 is a remarkable feature of the study. As UV absorption spectra of nanoparticles are blue-shifted relative to their properties in solution, the observed strong emission in the solid state makes the oligomer an outstanding exception to a well-established rule based on the molecular exciton model. The core–shell nanoparticles have been characterized by FE-SEM, TEM, XRD, nanosecond (ns) time-resolved fluorescence dynamics, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The longer fluorescence lifetimes (τ) of core–shell nanoparticles (3.50 ns and 3.52 ns for CSNS and CSNHS respectively) than 1 as-synthesized (1.28 ns) implies that the formation of the nanoparticles restricts the rotation and vibration of the groups in the molecules. The factor that induces fluorescent enhancement of nanoparticles is mainly ascribed to the increase of radiative rate constant (kr) and simultaneous decrease of nonradiative rate constant (knr).
