Title:
IONIC LIQUIDS AND THEIR USE AS SOLVENTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002026701
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Ionic compounds with a freezing point of up to 100 DEG C are formed by the reaction of an one amine salt of formula (I) R<1> R<2> R<3> R<4> N<+> X<->, such as choline chloride with an organic compound (II) capable of forming a hydrogen bond with X<->, such as urea, wherein the molar ratio of I to II is from 1:1.5 to 1:2.5. R<1>, R<2>, R<3> and R<4> may be H, optionally substituted C1 to C5 alkyl, optionally substituted C6 to C10 cycloalkyl, optionally substituted C6 to C12 aryl, optionally substituted C7 to C12 alkaryl, or R<1> and R<2> taken together may represent a C4 to C10 optionally substituted alkylene group, thereby forming with the N atom of formula I a 5 to 11-membered heterocyclic ring and all of R<1>, R<2>, R<3> and R<4> are not identical, X<-> may be NO3<->, F, CI<->, Br<->, I<->, BF4<->, CIO4<->, CN<->, SO3CF3<->, or COOCF3<->. The ionic compounds are useful as solvents, and electrolytes for example in electroplating, electrowinning, and electropolishing, and as catalysts.
