The application of ionic liquids as environmentally benign reaction solvents for synthesis and catalysis has received extensive recent attention. In this regard we have developed ionic liquids based on the cheap and readily available components choline chloride (ChCl; HOCH2CH2N(Me)3?Cl) and zinc chloride as alternatives to the more commonly employed alkyl imidazolium-aluminium chloride mixtures...

The density (d), speed of sound (u) and electrolytic conductivity (Λ) for systems containing acetaminophen, ionic liquid {1-octyl-3-methyl imidazolium bromide, [OMIm] Br} and water have been measured at T = 293.15-308.15 K. The measured data have been applied to calculate, standard partial molar volume ( ), Hepler’s constant , apparent molar isentropic compressibility...

The ionic liquid, N,N,N,N-tetramethylguanidiniumtriflate (TMGTf) was found to be an efficient catalyst solvent for Henry reaction between nitromethane and isatin derivatives to provide 3-hydroxy-3-(nitromethyl)indolin-2-one under mild conditions. The ionic liquid amenable to successive recycling without appreciable decrease in activity. Synthesized compounds have been screened for their anti-di...

The structure of anhydrous nickel, niobium and tantalum metal chlorides in ionic liquids IL) is important in the development of new electrochemical alloy deposition techniques. In order to understand the interactions of these metal ions with ionic liquids, we have investigated their structures in situ with X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS). The ionic liquid used in this study is 1-methyl-3-et...

a simple, novel, efficient and three-component procedure for the synthesis of pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione derivatives by the reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil, aldehyde and 2-benzylisothiourea hydrochloride promoted by ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([bmim]br) under solvent-free conditions is reported. the presented method is benefited from operational simplicity,...

An ionic liquid (IL) is a salt in the liquid state. In some contexts, the term has been restricted to salts whose melting point is below some arbitrary temperature, such as 100 °C. While ordinary liquids such as water and gasoline are predominantly made of electrically neutral molecules, ionic liquids are largely made of ions and short-lived ion pairs. These substances are variously called liqu...

a sensitive, selective and effective ionic liquid-based single drop microextraction technique was developed by using ionic liquid, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, c6mimpf6, coupled with electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (etaas) for the determination of copper and silver in environmental samples. dithizone was used as chelating agent. several factors that influence t...

Nicotine-based ionic liquid has been used as a green catalyst for pyridine-catalyzed Huisgen reaction. It promoted addition of dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate to aldehydes or N-tosyl imines leading to efficient synthesis of 2-benzoylfumarates and 1-azadienes respectively under pyridine free odorless ionic liquid conditions. The improved results were obtained in terms of enhanced yields, with min...

Inexpensive protic ionic liquids, synthesized from di- or triamines and excess sulfuric acid, were used as solvents catalysts for the Beckmann rearrangement. The use of liquids in place oleum acid allowed base neutralization step, which is required conventional rearrangement, to be entirely avoided, thereby dramatically improving atom economy. Using a biphasic water/organic solvent extraction s...
