Tunable Aryl Imidazolium Recyclable Ionic Liquid with Dual Bronsted-Lewis Acid as Green Catalyst for Friedel-Crafts Acylation and Thioesterification.

ABSTRACT: Unique tunable aryl imidazolium ionic liquids successfully catalyzed Friedel-Crafts acylation and thioesterification in sealed tubes. These reactions can form a C-C bond and a C-S bond with high atom economy. Ionic liquids exhibited high activity and catalyzed essential reactions with good to excellent yields while retaining their catalytic activities for recycling.
