- Ionic liquids have the potential to be used forextracting valuable chemicals from raw materials. These processesoften involve water, and after extraction, the water or otherchemicals must be removed from the ionic liquid, so it can bereused. To help in designing such processes, we present data onthe vapor−liquid equilibrium of the system containing protic ionicliquid 7-methyl-1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-enium acetate,water, acetic acid, and 7-methyl-1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene. Earlier studies have only focused on mixtures of water and anionic liquid with a stoichiometric ratio of the ions. Here, we alsoinvestigated mixtures containing an excess of the acid or basecomponent because in real systems with protic ionic liquids, theamount of acid and base in the mixture can vary. We modeled thedata using both the ePC-SAFT and NRTL models, and we compared the performance of different modeling strategies. We alsoexperimentally determined the vapor composition for a few of the samples, but none of the modeling strategies tested couldaccurately predict the concentration of the acid and base components in the vapor phase.

- The ability to correctly understand the emotional expression of another person is essential for social relationships and appears to be a partly inherited trait. The neuropeptides oxytocin and vasopressin have been shown to influence this ability as well as face processing in humans. Here, recognition of the emotional content of faces and voices, separately and combined, was investigated in 492 subjects, genotyped for 25 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in eight genes encoding proteins important for oxytocin and vasopressin neurotransmission. The SNP rs4778599 in the gene encoding aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator 2 (ARNT2), a transcription factor that participates in the development of hypothalamic oxytocin and vasopressin neurons, showed an association that survived correction for multiple testing with emotion recognition of audio-visual stimuli in women (). This study demonstrates evidence for an association that further expands previous findings of oxytocin and vasopressin involvement in emotion recognition.
