The reversible phase transfer of compounds between two immiscible liquid phases has many applications in a wide range of fields, and ionic liquids have been widely used as potential functional solvents and catalysts. However, photo-triggered reversible phase transfer of ionic liquids between the organic phase and water phase has not been reported so far. In the present work, the reversible phase transfer of six kinds of azobenzene-based ionic liquid surfactants between the organic phase and water phase is investigated by alternative irradiation of UV and visible light. Factors affecting the transfer efficiency, such as chemical structure and concentration of the ionic liquid surfactants, equilibrium photo-isomerization degree, and the aggregation state of ionic liquid surfactants are investigated in detail. It is shown that transfer efficiency greater than 89% was achieved under optimal conditions, equilibrium photo-isomerization degree of the ionic liquid surfactants is the main factor to determine their transfer efficiencies, and the aggregation of cis-isomers is not beneficial for the transfer.
