Intermolecular hydroamination or hydroarylation reactions of norbornene and cyclohexadiene performed with catalytic amounts of Brönsted or Lewis acid in ionic liquids were found to provide higher selectivity and yields than those performed in classical organic solvents. The ionic liquid increases the acidity of the media and stabilizes ionic intermediates through the formation of supramolecular...

A convenient and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes by condensation of 2-naphthol and aldehydes in the presence of Methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, as a Brönsted acidic ionic liquid ([Hmim]HSO4), is described. Both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes reacted easily to afford the corresponding 14-aryl or alkyl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes in good yiel...

An efficient synthesis of a valuable intermediate of coenzyme Q(10) by microwave-assisted Lewis acidic ionic liquid (IL)-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation is reported. The acidity of six [Etpy]BF(4)-based ionic liquids was characterized by means of the FT-IR technique using acetonitrile as a molecular probe. The catalytic activities of these ionic liquids were correlated with their Lewis acid...

Herein we report the dissolution mechanism of lignin in cholinium-based ionic liquids by molecular dynamics simulations. Multiple hydrogen bonds, longer HB lifetimes, and higher p K a [Ch][Lys] makes it better solvent for than acidic ILs.

The Brönsted acidic ionic-liquid [HO(3)S(CH(2))(4)mim] HSO(4), a novel dual catalyst-solvent, has been successfully applied in simultaneous microwave-assisted extraction and hydrolysis for the determination of flavonol glycosides in Ginkgo foliage. The parameters, namely the [HO(3)S(CH(2))(4)mim]HSO(4) concentration, microwave-irradiation power, microwave-irradiation time, and solid-liquid rati...

1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloroaluminate, [bmim]Cl·AlCl3, N=0.67 and 1-butylpyridinium chloroaluminate, [bpy]Cl·AlCl3, N=0.67 ionic liquids were found to work well as the Lewis acid catalyst and solvent in the Knoevenagel condensations of benzaldehyde and substituted benzaldehydes with diethyl malonate to give benzylidene malonates. The benzylidene malonates subsequently underwent Michael ad...
