“…Ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as promising alternative solvents due to their unique properties including negligible vapor pressure, low flammability, thermal and chemical stability, ability to dissolve many organic, inorganic, metallo-organic compounds, and polymeric materials. [108] ILs are organic salts, which are liquid at room temperature. Unlike the traditional solvents, ILs consist only of ions: large, asymmetrical, organic and heterocyclic cation (i. e., 1,3-dialkylimidazolium, tetraalkylammonium; 1,4-dialkylpyridinium, 1,1-dialkylpyrrolidinium, n-alkylpyridinium) and small, inorganic, or-ganic or complexes anions (i. e., hexafluorophosphate, tetrafluoroborate, trifluoromethyl acetate, bis[(trifluoromethyl) sulfonyl]imide, trifluoromethyl sulfate, chloride).…”
