Synthesis of multicarboxylic acid appended imidazolium ionic liquids and their application in palladium-catalyzed selective oxidation of styrene
A series of multicarboxylic acid appended imidazolium ionic liquids (McaILs) with chloride [Cl]- or bromide [Br]- as anions have been synthesized and characterized. Deprotonation of these ionic acids gives the corresponding zwitterions. Re-protonation of the zwitterions with strong Brønsted acids gi...
