The cation of the imidazolium-based ionic-liquid title salt, C(16)H(24)N(4) (2+)·2C(2)F(6)NO(4)S(2) (-), lies on a center of inversion; in the cation, the five-membered imidazolium ring is aligned at 84.4 (1)° with respect to the phenyl-ene ring; the angle at the methyl-ene C atom is 113.0 (2)°. In the anion, the negative charge formally resides on the two-coordinate N atom; the S-N-S angle at ...

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, {(C(12)H(20)N(4))[Ag(2)Br(4)]}(n), contains one-half of a substituted imidazolium cation, one Ag(+) and two Br(-) ions. The cation is completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry. The crystal structure is made up from polymeric sheets of {[AgBr(2)](-)}(n) anions extending parallel to (100). The basic building unit of the anion is a slightly distorted A...

In the title compound, C(5)H(9)N(2) (+)·0.5C(2)O(4) (2-)·C(2)H(2)O(4)·H(2)O, the anions, cations and water mol-eculars are linked by N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds which define a tightly bound three-dimensional structure. The title compound is a layered structure as viewed along the a or c axis; one layer contains water and oxalic acid mol-ecules, the other the imidazolium cation. The C atoms o...

In the title salt, C(11)H(13)N(2) (+)·C(6)H(2)N(3)O(7) (-), the dihedral angles between the benzene ring in the cation and the imidazolium ring and the benzene ring of the picrate anion are 113.7 (2) and 116.3 (2)°, respectively. The imidazolium ring is nearly parallel to the benzene ring of the picrate anion, the dihedral angle between the planes being 2.6 (1)°. The nitro groups in the picrate...

The title structure, (C(11)H(20)BrN(2))[Ag(CN)(2))], is built up from an approximately C(2v)-symmetric imidazolium cation and a nearly linear dicyanidoargentate anion [N-Ag-N = 176.6 (9)° and Ag-C-N = 178.8 (9) and 177.2 (11)°]. These two constituents are linked by a remarkably short inter-action between the Br atom of the imidazolium cation [C-Br = 1.85 (3) Å] and one N atom of the cyanidoarge...

Most commercial anion exchange membranes (AEMs) deploy quaternary ammonium moieties. Alternative cation moieties have been explored in AEMs for fuel cells, but there are no studies focused examining alternative tethered cations ionic separations—such as organic acid transport via electrodialysis. H-cell and conductivity experiments demonstrate that benzyl 1-methyl imidazolium groups polysulfone...

In the title compound {(C3H5N2)[Na(NO3)2]} n , the Na(I) ion is coordinated by eight O atoms from three bidentate nitrate anions and two O atoms from two monodentate nitrate anions, displaying a bicapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. The imidazolium cation is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation for all non-H atoms = 0.0018 Å). In the crystal, the Na(I) ions are connected by bridging nitrate lig...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C(23)H(33)N(2))[Li(C(32)H(16)N(8))]·0.5C(3)H(6)O·H(2)O, consists of two symmetry-unrelated lithium phthalocyanine (LiPc(-)) half-anions, centered at (1,0,0) and (0,,0), respectively, the bis-(adamant-yl)imidazolium cation (BAI(+)), occupying a general site, an acetone mol-ecule, disordered about the inversion centre at (0, , ) and a water mol-ecule at...

In the title compound, C(24)H(28)N(4)O(2) (2+)·2Br(-), the imidazolium cation is located on an inversion centre. The two imidazole rings are parallel to each other, whereas the imidazole and benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 77.25 (16)°. Non-classical inter-molecular C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link the imidazolium cations and the bromide anions into a three-dimensional network.

Bifunctional acidic ionic liquids, having both H-imidazolium and -SO3H groups as cation moieties (H-BFAILs) and CF3SO3- as anion, were synthesized in high yields. These H-BFAILs showed significant hydrophilic properties, lower acidity and higher thermal stability relative to common ionic liquids, due to their unique structures. The (propyl or butyl-3-sulfonic) imidazolium trifluoromethane sulfo...
