Popis: Trying to contribute to an overall picture of solvation in ionic liquids, we report a review of the main recent results in the field of molecular dynamics simulations of structural and dynamic properties of mixtures of ionic liquids with molecular cosolvents or salts. The majority of reported results indicate that solvation of neutral molecules and salt ions takes place selectively in the bulk nanoregions of the dense ionic solvents, fitting the parts of the solute's moieties to the similar regions of the dense ionic solvent, in what has been called nanostructured solvation [Mendez-Morales et al. J. Phys. Chem. B 118 (2014) 761–770].
