A decatungstate-based ionic liquid exhibiting a very low dielectric constant suitable for acting as a solvent and a catalyst for the oxidation of organic substrates†
Abstract
In this contribution, a new POM-based ionic liquid, namely (P6,6,6,14)4[W10O32], was fully characterized. Its viscosity and its very low dielectric constant make this hybrid ionic liquid suitable to be used as a solvent for organic transformations. As a proof of concept, this unique ionic liquid having both solvent and catalyst properties was tested for the catalytic oxidation of various alcohols and alkenes in the presence of H2O2.
