Abstract

Hydroxide ionic liquids, such as 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium hydroxides, undergo smooth anion metathesis with ammonium salts to produce a variety of ionic liquids in excellent yields. It is a practical supplement of traditional neutralization method due to the broader range of starting materials containing desired anions.
