Butyl-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate

Such an example is shown on Fig. 8, which corresponds to the case of a butyl-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ionic liquid (with graphite electrodes). The polynomial fits lead to differential capacitances which vary very diffently with potential from one case to another. Several peaks are observed, but their positions change markedly depending on the fit. 

Figure 4.2-1 shows the calculated ab initio molecular structure of the ionic liquid [BMIM][PFg] (l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate). 

Scheme 6.93) [192]. Using either of the two solvent systems, all studied cycloaddition reactions were completed in less than 1 min upon microwave irradiation at 50 °C employing 3 mol% of the catalyst. An additional advantage of using the ionic liquid l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (bmimPF6) as solvent is that it facilitates catalyst recycling. 

Inter- and intramolecular hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions in a series of functionalized 2-(lH)-pyrazinones have been studied in detail by the groups of Van der Eycken and Kappe (Scheme 6.95) [195-197]. In the intramolecular series, cycloaddition of alkenyl-tethered 2-(lH)-pyrazinones required 1-2 days under conventional thermal conditions involving chlorobenzene as solvent under reflux conditions (132 °C). Switching to 1,2-dichloroethane doped with the ionic liquid l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (bmimPF6) and sealed-vessel microwave technology, the same transformations were completed within 8-18 min at a reaction temperature of 190 °C (Scheme 6.95 a) [195]. Without isolating the primary imidoyl chloride cycloadducts, rapid hydrolysis was achieved by the addition of small amounts of water and subjecting the reaction mixture to further microwave irradia-... 

C. 1- Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate. A 1-L, one-necked, round-bottomed flask (Note 13) is charged with 65.6 g (0.37 mol, 1 equiv) of 1- butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, and 69.3 g (0.37 mol, 1 equiv) of potassium hexafluorophosphate (Note 19) in 70 ml of distilled water. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hr affording a two-phase system. The organic phase is washed with 3 X 50 mL of water and dried under reduced pressure (0.1 mbar, 0.001 mm). Then 100 ml of dichloromethane and 35 g of anhydrous magnesium sulfate are added. After 1 hr, the suspension is filtered and the volatile material is removed under reduced pressure (0.1 bar, 0. 1 mm) at 30°C for 2 hr to afford 86.4 g (0.29 mol, 81%) of 1- butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate as alight yellow viscous liquid, mp 10°C (Notes 20 and 21).

The reaction conditions were room temperature and pressure and the IL was developed from l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate using 1-4 mol% Pd(OAc)2, 1 mol % Lewis acid, and 0.5 mL of IL. The reaction times were from 2.5 to 4.5 h. The Lewis acids were chosen from the following Cu(OTf)2, Cu(CF3C02)2, Zn(OTf)2, and In(OTf)3. 

Three ionic liquids were purchased from Aldrich l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate. Homogeneous Co (II) catalyst precursors used in our experiments include Co(BF4)2, Co(OAc)2, and Co(C104)2 each of which have high solubilities in above ionic liquids. High surface area catalyst supports Si02 and AI2O3 were obtained from Davison and Engelhard, respectively. 

The advantage of the stoichiometric technique is that it is extremely simple. Care has to be taken to remove all gases dissolved in the IL sample initially, but this is easily accomplished because one does not have to worry about volatilization of the IL sample when the sample chamber is evacuated. The disadvantage of this technique is that it requires relatively large amounts of ILs to obtain accurate measurements for gases that are only sparingly soluble. At ambient temperature and pressure, for instance, 10 cm of l-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]) would take up only 0.2 cm of a gas with a Henry s law constant of...
