Bifunctional Double-Salt Ionic Liquids Containing both 4-Chloro-2-Methylphenoxyacetate and l-Tryptophanate Anions with Herbicidal and Antimicrobial Activity.

ABSTRACT: The goal of this research was to obtain and characterize ionic liquids based on a bisammonium cation and both 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetate (MCPA) and l-tryptophanate anions. The concept of including two structurally different anions was utilized to achieve improved biological activity, while crucial functional traits could be designed by modifying the cation. The synthesis process was efficient and resulted in high yields. Subsequent analyses (nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)) confirmed the chemical structure, purity, and molar ratio of ions in the obtained compounds. The described compounds are novel and have not been previously described in the literature. Evaluations of physicochemical
