Electrochemistry of Zirconium Tetrachloride in the Ionic Liquid N-Butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium Bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide: Formation of Zr(III) and Exploitation of ZrCl4 as a Facile Ionic Liquid Drying Agent

The electrochemistry of zirconium tetrachloride in the ionic liquid N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide has been studied, and the one electron reduction is proved by chronoamperometry. Furthermore, we report the application of ZrCl 4 as a facile and general ionic liquid d...
