D. functional theory methods in combination with vibrational spectroscopy are used to investigate possible variants of mol. structure of the ion pairs of several imidazolium-based ionic liqs. (ILs). Multiple stable structures are detd. with the anion posit ...
The reaction of chloromethyl thiocyanate with 1-methylimidazole affords the imidazolium salt, 1-thiocyanomethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, [C1SCNmim]Cl (1a). Exchange of the chloride anion in 1a by [PF6] ...
Room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), considered as "designers' solvents", are attracting a great attention because of their possibility to be tailored based on property requirements. The ionic liquids designed and synthesized for carrying out specified ...
A series of 'dual-functionalised' ionic liquids, comprising imidazolium cations with various functionalities and the nitrile functionalised anion CH3H(BF3)CH2CN have been prepared; some exhibit very low viscosities-a highly valuable property in many a ...
A series of imidazolium salts with the nitrile functional group attached to the alkyl side chain, viz. [C(n)CNmim][X] (where C(n)CNmim is the 1-alkylnitrile-3-methylimidazolium cation and C-n = (CH2)(n), n = 1-4; X = Cl, PF6, and BF4) and [C(3)CNdmim][X] ( ...
Imidazolium chlorides with one or two carboxylic acid substituent groups, 1-methyl-3-alkylcarboxylic acid imidazolium chloride, [Me{(CH2)(n)COOH}im]Cl (n=l, 3), and 1,3-dialkylcarboxylic acid imidazolium chloride, [{(CH2)(n)COOH}(2)im]Cl (n=1, 3), have bee ...
Two 1,3-dialkyne-functionalized imidazolium chlorides, 1,3-dipropynylimidazolium chloride and 1,3-dipentynylimidazolium chloride, have been prepared from the direct reaction between the appropriate chloroalkyne and (trimethylsilyl)imidazole. Replacement of ...
