Self-associated, "distillable" ionic media.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that some selected families of commonly used aprotic ionic liquids can be distilled at 200–300 °C and low pressure, with concomitant recovery of significant amounts of pure substance, will permit these currently excluded applications to be realized.

TL;DR: One-stage, reduced-pressure distillations at moderate temperature of 1-decyl- and 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bistriflilamide ([Ntf(2)](-)) ionic liquids (ILs) have been performed and these liquid-vapor equilibria can be understood in light of predictions for normal boiling points of ILs.

TL;DR: Ionic liquids which are (weak) Lewis bases have a number of interesting and useful properties different to those of traditional ionic liquids, including volatility and the possibility of being distillable in some cases and a base catalysis effect in others.

TL;DR: There are indications that switching from a normal organic solvent to an ionic liquid can lead to novel and unusual chemical reactivity, which opens up a wide field for future investigations into this new class of solvents in catalytic applications.

TL;DR: A new room temperature ionic liquid incorporating a cation with an appended amine group is produced, comparable in efficiency for CO2 capture to commercial amine sequestering reagents, and yet is nonvolatile and does not require water to function.

TL;DR: Ionic liquids, defined here as salts with melting temperatures below 100 °C, evolved from traditional high temperature molten salts and were observed as far back as the mid 19th century.

TL;DR: The paper discusses the use of supercritical water in the following reactions: hydrogenation/dehydrogenation; C-C bond formation; rearrangements; hydration/ dehydration; elimination; hydrolysis; partial oxidation; H-D exchange; decomposition; and oxidation.
