Abstract

An ionic liquid “reagent” bearing a succinimidyl activated ester is reported that can be used to synthesize a variety of small molecule and macromolecular ionic liquids. In addition, the ionic liquid reagent was used to modify lysozyme, and the protein retained its structure and function after modification. This study describes a facile and reliable route to new ionic liquid compositions.
