Abstrakt: The phenolic compounds phenol, 4-nitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, 2,6-dinitrophenol, 1-naphthol, 2-naphthol, and 4-chlorophenol are extracted nearly quantitatively from aqueous solution into the room temperature ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMImPF6) in molecular form at pHa. Picric acid is extracted efficiently in anionic form. Recovery of pyrocatechol and resorcinol is much lower. The effect of pH, phenol concentration, and volume ratio of aqueous and organic phases were studied. Ionic liquid BMImPF6 is shown to be suitable for extraction-voltammetric determination of phenols without back-extraction or addition of support electrolyte. The electrochemical window of BMImPF6 at various electrodes was determined, and voltammetric oxidation of phenols and reduction of nitrophenols in BMImPF6 was studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
