Crystalline solids, co-existing in equilibrium with the 3-methyl-1H-imidazolium bromohydrogenates(I) ionic liquid, have been characterised by X-ray diffraction analysis. The Brønsted acidic, homo-conjugate [H(2)Br(3)](-) anions presented are discussed in terms of their structure and reactivity, in efforts to advance the understanding of Brønsted acidity in ionic liquid media.

A novel extractant beta-diketone-substituted diaza-18-crown-6 demonstrated very efficient extraction of Sr(2+) due to an intramolecular synergistic effect on the ionic liquid extraction system and recovery of Sr(2+) from the ionic liquid was successfully achieved under acidic conditions.

Efficient and one-pot synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes was described by Knoevenagel condensation, Michael addition and cyclodehydration of dimedone. This reaction was carried out through condensation of dimedone and various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of task-specific Brønsted acidic ionic liquid under solvent free conditions. The catalyst could be recycled five times without si...

In this work, the ability of Na(2)SO(4) and ionic liquids to induce the formation of acidic aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) is investigated. Ternary phase diagrams, tie lines, and tie-line lengths for several systems were determined and reported at 298 K and atmospheric pressure. It is here shown that among the ionic liquids studied only those containing long alkyl side chains at the ions and/...

an efficient and chemoselective procedure for the preparation of 1, 1-diacatates (acylals) from various aldehydes with acetic anhydride in the presence of brønsted acidic ionic liquid [msei]cl as a reusable catalytic system under solvent-free condition at room temperature and short periods of times with excellent yields will be described. the catalyst was easily separated in simple work-up and ...

in this work, the ionic liquid triethylamine-bonded sulfonic acid {[et3n–so3h]cl}, n,n-diethyl-n-sulfoethanammonium chloride was used as a green acidic homogeneous catalyst to synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-ones and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-thiones as two categories of heterocycles, from aldehyde, dicarbonyl compound and urea or thiourea throughout the one-pot three components cycloc...

The acidic ionic liquid (IL) functionalized polymer (PDVB-SO3H-[C3vim][SO3CF3]) possesses abundant nanoporous structures, strong acid strength and unique capability for deconstruction of crystalline cellulose into sugars in ILs. The polymer shows much improved catalytic activities in comparison with mineral acids, homogeneous acidic ionic liquids and the acidic resins such as Amberlyst 15. The ...
