In this paper, a new nano-size ionic liquid (nIL) has been synthesized from D-phenylalanine and oxalic acid (D-Phe-OX) via a simple procedure. The obtained nIL has been characterized by the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1</sup...
