Starting with commercial reagents, bicyclic 1,2,3-triazolium ionic liquids [b-3C-tr][NTf(2)] (1) and [b-4C-tr][NTf(2)] (2) were synthesized in four steps with high overall isolated yields of 68% and 76%, respectively. Since the C-5 hydrogen is acidic, under basic condition ionic liquids 1 and 2 were readily methylated with methyl iodide to afford chemically stable ionic liquids 7 and 8 at room temperature (88% and 82%, respectively). Ionic liquid 1 was used as the ionic solvent to demonstrate its usefulness for the synthesis of rutaecarpine, a natural product.
Based on a common structural core of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro[1,2,3]triazolo [1,5-a]pyridine, a number of bicyclic triazolium ionic liquids 1-3 were designed and successfully prepared. In our hands, this optimized synthesis of ionic liquids 1 and 2 requires no chromatographic separation. Also in this work, ionic liquids 1, 2 were shown to be efficient ionic solvents for fast synthesis of tryptanthrin natural product. Furthermore, a new affinity ionic liquid 3 was tailor-synthesized and displayed its effectiveness in chemoselective extraction of both Cu(II) ions and, for the first time, histidine-containing peptides.
The task-specific ionic liquid (TSIL) and 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocynanate, ([bmim]SCN) were used as the medium as well as the reactant for the synthesis of a-thiocynanatoketones by the reaction with a-sulfonyloxy aryl ketones. Significant rate enhancements and improved yields have been observed.
A new and efficient method for the synthesis of 4‐aryl‐2‐phenyloxazoles is described which is based upon the reaction of α‐[(2,4‐dinitrobenzene)sulfonyl]oxy ketone intermediates with benzamide in ionic liquid.
In recent years, ionic liquids have attracted much attention as useful synthetic solvents. Compared with classical molecular solvents, the ionic liquids are environmentally benign reaction media. A variety of quinoline derivatives have been synthesized under ionic liquid conditions using Amberlyst-15 as catalyst.

PEG‐400[poly(ethylene glycol‐400)] is used as a “green” recyclable solvent in the one‐pot synthesis of 2‐arylimidazo[1,2‐a]pyrimidines by reaction with ketones, [hydroxyl(2,4‐dinitrobenzenesulfonyloxy)‐iodo]benzene (HDNIB), and 2‐aminopyrimidine. Significant rate enhancements and improved yields have been observed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
