Abstract Herein a straightforward approach for the enhancement of the water solubility of common antibiotic and NSAID active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is presented. The APIs are converted into ionic liquids (API-ILs) and molten salts by combination with the organic superbases TMG, DBU and DBN. The prepared superionic liquids were characterized by H-1 and C-13 NMR as well as FTIR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Most products are amorphous non-polymorphic room temperature ionic liquids with very high solubility in water, which may enhance the bioavailability of the API-ILs in comparison with the parent drugs.
