Brønsted acidic room temperature ionic liquids derived from N,N-dimethylformamide and similar protophilic amides

Jing-Fang Huang, Gary A. Baker, Huimin Luo, Kunlun Hong, Qing-Feng Li, Niels J. Bjerrum and Sheng Dai


We herein describe a convenient and efficient one-pot route to a new family of cost-effective, highly proton conductive room temperature ionic liquids based on N,N-dimethylformamide and structural analogues thereof, thereby opening up potential in the fuel cell industry and other areas.
