New, highly acidic ionic liquid systems and their application in the carbonylation of toluene

Abstract

Based on the surprisingly high solubility of AlCl3 in ionic liquids of type [cation][(CF3SO2)2N], a new class of highly acidic, ionic systems has been developed. First tests in toluene carbonylation revealed high potential of these new acidic ionic liquids as catalyst for arene functionaliziation reactions.
