The limiting activity coefficients of several hydrocarbons and aliphatic alcohols in protic ionic liquids: 2-hydroxyethylammonium nitrate (EOAN), propylammonium nitrate (PAN), butylammonium nitrate (BAN), and butylammonium thiocyanate (BASCN), were determined at 298 K using gas chromatographic headspace analysis. The activity coefficients of hydrocarbons in EOAN turned out to be much higher than in BASCN or alkylammonium nitrates. The methylene group increments for the Gibbs free energies of solvation of various homological series in EOAN are also much higher than in BASCN, BAN, PAN as well as in aprotic ionic liquids or molecular solvents except water. Water-like solvation properties of EOAN are linked with the presence of a three-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds, high concentration of ion pairs, and the absence of nanoscale domain structure that exists in liquid alkylammonium salts and favors solvation of hydrocarbons in apolar domains. The sensitivity of solvation properties of PILs to their nanostructure suggests that the presence of apolar and polar domains in a liquid can be probed with the studies of solvation thermodynamics.
