Study on Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Ionic Liquids Based on Dialkylimidazolium

Article Preview

Abstract:

Controlled microwave irradiation has been employed in the improved process to prepare two main dialkylimidazolium-based ionic liquids: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium(BMIMCl) and 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AMIMCl). The synthesis process was studied by determining the production yields at certain interval time. Results shown the reaction was accelerated by 8 and 4 times respectively, and production yields were increased by 5.5% and 5.9%. Differences in synthesis between [AMIM]Cl and [BMIM]Cl indicated the improvement of the reaction rate of [BMIM]Cl was clearer because of the inerter reactant. FT-IR and 13C NMR were carried out and results shown the two ionic liquids were successfully synthesized.
