\begin{abstract}
This paper proposes for the first time the preparation of a series of
amino acid ionic liquids (AAILs) via one-step hydrolysis of cheap
lactams for the capture of CO2. The structures of the prepared AAILs are
confirmed using NMR, FTIR, and ESI?MS, and their physical properties are
also determined. It is found that these AAILs are reversible CO2
absorbents with very high absorption capacities (0.15 to 0.18 g\selectlanguage{ngerman}·g\selectlanguage{english}?1 at
313.2 K and 1.0 bar), better than almost all task-specific ionic liquids
reported in literatures. The absorption mechanism is also elucidated to
be a combination of 1:1 and 2:1 stoichiometric reaction of AAILs with
CO2 from NMR, FTIR, reaction equilibrium thermodynamical modelling
(RETM) and quantum calculations. The AAILs have the advantages of simple
synthesis, high yield, and using available cheap raw materials. It is
believed that this kind of AAILs have great potentials to be used as
efficient CO2 absorbents.%
