title: Nonpolar, polar, and associating solutes in ionic liquids.
abstract: The existence of microphase segregation between polar and nonpolar domains in ionic liquids changes the way in which solvation can be understood in these media. Here, we perform a structural analysis on the solvation of nonpolar, polar, and associating solutes in imidazolium-based ionic liquids, where this novel way of understanding their nature as microsegregated solvents is correlated with their ability to interact with different species in diverse and complex ways.
