The pH-profiles of the extraction of Cs+ into four conventional (1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and bis[trifluoromethyl)sulphonyl]imides of 1- butyl-3-methylimidazolium, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium, and 1-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-methylimidazolium) and two novel (trioctylmethylammonium salicylate and tetrahexyl-ammonium dihexylsulfosuccinate) room temperature ionic liquids have been determined both in the absence and in the presence of crown ether (18-crown-6 or dibenzo-18-crown-6). The pH-profiles of distribution ratio of crown ethers have been established in the same conditions. The relationship of cesium extraction efficiency both with the stability of its complexes with crown ethers and crown ethers’ distribution ratio has been clarified.
