Narrow band photoluminescence of europium-doped liquid crystals
Koen Binnemans,Dries Moors +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the nematic liquid-crystal host matrices MBBA and 5CB with the europium(III) β-diketonate complex [Eu(TTA)3(phen) ] were used to obtain liquid crystal properties at room temperature.

Ionic liquids with trichloride anions for oxidative dissolution of metals and alloys.
TL;DR: Ionic liquids (ILs) with trichloride anions combined with different cations were synthesised by bringing chlorine gas into contact with the corresponding chloride (Cl-) ILs at room temperature.
71
Reductive Splitting of Cellulose in the Ionic Liquid 1-Butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Chloride
TL;DR: The depolymerization of cellulose is carried out in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride in the presence of hydrogen gas, with sorbitol as the dominant product in 51-74% yield.

Strong luminescence of rare earth compounds in ionic liquids: Luminescent properties of lanthanide(III) iodides in the ionic liquid 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide
Anja-Verena Mudring,Arash Babai,Sven Arenz,Ralf Giernoth,Koen Binnemans,Kris Driesen,Peter Nockemann +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the absorption, excitation and emission spectra of 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide are presented.
