Good yields were obtained in the synthesis of the ILs. The toxicity of the synthesized ILs was checked against the Danio rerio fish (OECD 203). All six tested Amino Acid Ionic Liquids (AAILs) shows remarkably low toxicity towards Danio rerio fish. © 2016 The Authors. %Z cited By 29; Conference of 4th International Conference on Process Engineering and Advanced Materials, ICPEAM 2016 ; Conference Date: 15 August 2016 Through 17 August 2016; Conference Code:131138
