Abstract

Ionic liquids are used as reaction media for various types of organic and organometallic transformations. These media hold many advantages, such as high thermal stability and negligible volatility, over conventional molecular solvents. 1 These liquids are easily prepared, are recyclable, and allow for the easy separation of products from a reaction mixture. There is much interest in using ionic liquids as solvents for homogeneous transition metal-catalyzed ...
