Popis: | Ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely promoted as functional replacements of volatile organic solvents; however restricting their use to conventional solvents constrains their potential. One means of enhancing their utility is through the development of dual purpose ILs, capable of acting as both solvent and catalyst. A series of bromozincate ILs was synthesised, and the Lewis acidities probed spectroscopically. Furthermore, the crystal and molecular structure of [C2Py]2[ZnBr4] was determined through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The ILs were then used in a model reaction, aimed at probing effects of both IL Lewis acidity and structural organisation on the reaction outcome. |
