center dot Ionic liquids (Its) are considered as an alternative to traditional organic solvents due to their unique physical and chemical properties. On the one hand, they have promising solvating characteristics, on the other hand, they are considered as environmentally friendly "green" solvents. Recent studies of ILs toxicity however questioned the safety of ILs.center dot Assessment of the toxicity of ILs based on laboratory testing is time-consuming and requires significant resources. Complementing this task by applying computational methods is an option for filling data gaps and allows predicting the toxicity of ILs that lack experimental data. Development and application of quantitative structure activity relationships (QSARs) for innovative design of safe-by-design Its became recently a research priority. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on development of in silico models in predicting and classifying the hazards of ILs. In addition, we discuss biodegradability of ILs and assessment of mechanisms of toxicity of ILs based on the reported models.
