## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention concerns salts from new aryl-alkyl-substituted imidazolium and triazolium cations and any anions. The invention concerns furthermore methods for the chemical reaction and separation of substances comprising the inventive salts as solvents, solvent additives, or extraction agents as well as the use of the inventive salts, for example, as Solvents or solvent additives in chemical reactions, as extraction agents for the separation of substances or for the storage of hydrogen.
Nowadays, organic solvents find applications in many different areas, beginning with chemistry, but also in biology and in material development. However, in traditional catalytic processes organic solvents as a result of their volatility, flammability and toxicity often bring about the problem that dangers relating safety, health and environment must be prevented with costly technical measures (cf. Wasserscheid/Welton, “Ionic liquids in synthesis”, Wiley-VCH 2007).
Hence, new environmentally friendly synthesis methods that require no solvents or use environmentally friendly alternative solvents become more and more important. In this context, attention has focused in recent years particularly on ionic liquids.
The definition of ionic liquids (“ionic liquids”, “ILs”) concerns substances that consist completely of organic cations and organic or inorganic anions and have, in addition, a low melting point of less than 100° C. and a relatively low viscosity.
Ionic liquids exhibit further advantageous properties, for example, low vapor pressures, low combustibility as well as an adjustable polarity and miscibility with other organic and inorganic substances. Hence, they represent in synthesis and homogeneous catalysis an interesting alternative to the organic solvents used today. The low vapor pressure, the low flammability linked therewith, the low toxicity and variability of these compounds makes them ideal “green” solvents for a plurality of chemical processes.
Known ionic liquids contain as a cation, e.g., alkyl ammonium, alkyl phosphonium, N,N′ dialkyl imidazolium and N-alkyl pyridinium cations:




Up to now, however, there is no reliable way to predict the melting points of organic salts. Discovering new organic salts that fulfill the definition of ionic liquids is possible currently only experimentally.
The electronic properties of the conventionally employed ionic liquids available commercially can be changed only minimally.
From the prior art (e.g., WO 03/074494 A1, DE 10 2004 060 247 A1 or EP 1 201 657 A1) N,N′-substituted imidazolium and triazolium salts are known which are used as ionic liquids. The individual compounds disclosed therein are aliphatic substituted imidazolium and triazolium salts in which the sp3-hybridized substituents on the nitrogen atoms reduce the possibilities of influencing the system to the inductive effects. Mesomeric effects cannot be used.
Presently, the research activities focus extensively on the synthesis of new anions. Thus, WO 03/074494 A1 discloses ionic liquids with anions free of halogen; WO 2007/131498 A2 discloses hydrophobic anions; WO 2004/054991 A1 discloses those with [N(CF3)2−] anions, EP 1 512 460 A1 those with thiocyanate anions; and WO 2004/096776 A1 those with alkyl sulfate anions.
It is therefore the object of the invention to provide salts with new organic cations whose electronic properties can be varied in a targeted fashion and whose melting points and solution properties are adjustable so that they are suitable for use as ionic liquids.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
According to the invention the object is solved by salts of the general formula (I),




wherein

X− is an anion,

Y1 and Y2 are CH, or Y1 is CH and Y2 is N, or Y1 is N and Y2 is CH,

n is a number from 1 to including 18,

Q is selected from —CH3, OH, —ORx, —SO3H, —SO3Rx, —COOH, —COORx, —CORx, NH2, —NHRx, N(Rx)2, and —CH(Rx)2,

Z is H or Rx,

R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 independently of each other are —H, halogen, —NO2, —NH2, —NHRx, —N(Rx)2, —Rx, —COORx or —ORx,

wherein Rx is an optionally substituted and/or branched C1 to C18 alkyl residue.

Compounds of the general formula (I) wherein Y1 and Y2 are CH; and R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are H, are excluded from the invention.
Compounds of the general formula (I) wherein Y1 and Y2 are CH; R1═R3═R5═CH3; n=1, 2, 6; and Q=CH3, are excluded from the invention.
Compounds of the general formula (I) wherein Y1 is CH and Y2 is N; R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are H; n=1; and Q=CH3, are excluded from the invention.
Compounds of the general formula (I) wherein Y1 and Y2 is CH; R1, R2, R4, R5═H; R3═ORx, and Rx is a hydrocarbon with 3 or 12 carbon atoms, are excluded from the invention.
Rx is a saturated C1 to C18 alkyl group which is optionally substituted and/or branched and may contain one or several oxygen atoms as hetero atoms. Preferably, between 1 and 6, particularly preferred between 2 and 4, oxygen atoms are contained as hetero atoms in Rx. In this connection, preferably the oxygen atoms in Rx to form ether bonds. Rx encompasses no aromatic substituents. Hence, a biphenyl substitution at the imidazole or triazole ring is not encompassed by the compounds of the general formula (I).
Also, di-cations which encompass two imidazole or triazole rings are not encompassed by the compounds of the general formula (I). The imidazole or triazole ring with aryl ring as “nucleus” of the inventive compounds is thus contained in them only once.
In the following, substituents on the aromatic moiety or phenyl group means that at least one of the groups R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 is not H. In this connection, permitted are from one to five substituents.
The substituents R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 at the phenyl ring do not anellate, i.e. they are not connected in the compounds of the general formula (I) such with each other or with an atom of the imidazole or triazole ring that thereby a ring-like structure results.
In aliphatic-substituted imidazolium and triazolium salts known from the prior art, the sp3-hybridized substituents at the nitrogen atoms reduce the possibilities of influencing the system to the inductive effects. Mesomeric effects cannot be used.
However, the inventive imidazolium and triazolium cations are substituted with aromatic moieties that are optionally substituted. As a result of the sp2-hybridized substituents at the nitrogen atoms, melting points and solution properties of the organic salts derived therefrom are adjustable on account of the mesomeric effects in a targeted fashion.
The asymmetric N,N-substitution of the inventive imidazolium and triazolium cations by an alkyl and an aromatic substituent leads to advantageous properties that are enhanced in that groups with +I/+M and −I/−M effect can be attached to the aromatic substituent. It is mandatory for the interaction between the aryl substituent and the imidazole ring or triazole ring that the conjugation is realized about the whole system, i.e., there are no sp3-hybridized atoms in the rings.
The stability—i.e. the difference between melting point and decomposition point—of the inventive organic salts on the basis of the aryl-alkyl-substituted imidazolium and triazolium cations is significantly increased in comparison to the corresponding alkyl-alkyl-substituted analogous compounds.
With the aid of the mesomeric effect of different aromatic moieties on the imidazole or triazole ring the charge distribution in the imidazolium or triazolium cation can be influenced in a targeted fashion and the melting point of the compounds can be controlled. An aromatic moiety with +M effect causes in this connection a better charge distribution and a lower melting point of the salt, while aromatic moieties with −M effect cause a rise in the melting point of the salt. In addition, the melting points of these imidazolium or triazolium salts can be influenced by the symmetry of the substitution at the aromatic moiety. Aromatic compounds with +M effect as well as asymmetric substitution patterns at the aromatic moiety cause a clear drop of the melting points, while substituted aromatic moieties with −M effect or high symmetry in regard to substitution increase the melting temperature.
In one embodiment of the invention, substituents with +I and/or +M effect are attached to the phenyl ring taking into account the steric conditions when the melting point of the compound should be low. The substituents Cl, Br, I, ORx, Rx and N(Rx)2 are preferred in this connection.
In another embodiment of the invention, substituents with −I and/or −M effect are attached to the phenyl ring taking into account the steric conditions when the melting point of the compound should be high. The substituents NO2 and COORx are preferred in this connection.
In this connection, the melting point is dependent on the employed anion wherein even with very different functional groups at the aromatic moiety the exchange of the anions is still possible in good yield.
The physical and chemical properties of the imidazolium or triazolium salts can be specifically adjusted by the introduction of different substituents at the aromatic moiety on the imidazole or triazolium ring in addition to the existing possibilities of varying the anions and the alkyl groups. For this purpose single substitution as well as multiple substitution are used. The inventive imidazolium or triazolium salts that are substituted with aromatic moieties allow optimization of the ionic reaction medium for a specific application by a gradual tuning of the relevant solvent properties in a targeted fashion. Here the electronic influence of different substituents on the aromatic moiety can be used. In this connection, the possible substituents R1 to R5 are employed individually, several times or also in combination to achieve in a targeted fashion the desired inductive or mesomeric effect.
Also the symmetry of the substitution patterns on the aromatic moiety has a specific influence on the properties of the salts and in particular on the melting points. Thus, compounds with substituents in the 4-position and 2-position, i.e. with R1/R5 and R3 not H, as well as with several substituents are preferred compounds.
Especially preferred are inventive compounds where the phenyl ring is substituted at the 2- (R1), 4- (R3) and/or the 6-position (R5), i.e. compounds of the general formula (I) wherein R2 and R4 are H and at least one residue selected from R1, R3 and R5 is not H.
Preferably, the aromatic substituent of the inventive compounds is substituted with one or several ORx, halogen, N(Rx)2, Rx and/or NO2, preferably ORx, halogen, N(Rx)2 and/or Rx, particularly preferred ORx, Rx and N(Rx)2. In a particularly preferred embodiment, one or several of the substituents R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 in the compounds of the general formula (I) are selected independently of each other from ORx or Rx.
Furthermore, it was observed that by varying the chain length n of the aliphatic residues the melting point can be influenced systematically and selectively. While in the alkyl-alkyl-substituted compounds the melting point greatly changes from a certain length of the alkyl chain on, a steadier behavior is observed in case of the aryl-alkyl-substituted compounds. Here, a correlation can be made between the number of carbon atoms of the alkyl chain and the expected melting point. Polar, acidic and basic groups may be located at the aromatic ring as well as in the aliphatic chain.
Preferably, in case of the inventive compounds n is a natural number between 2 and 14, preferably from 4 to 10, particularly preferred from 4 to 8.
The properties of the inventive aryl-alkyl-substituted imidazolium or triazolium cations and their salts are therefore very precisely adjustable by the variation of the aliphatic substituents, the substituents on the aromatic ring (which influence in turn the mesomeric effect and the symmetry of the aromatic moiety) as well as the selection of the anion across an extremely wide range. In this way, it is synthetically possible, to tailor precisely for many applications a suitable solvent by adjustment of the above mentioned parameters.

Also encompassed in the invention are methods for the preparation of the inventive salts of the general formula (I).
For the preparation of an inventive salt of the general formula (I), with Y1 and Y2 being H, the appropriate N-substituted imidazole is first prepared, for example, from an aromatic amine. For this purpose, the appropriate aniline and a glyoxal solution are placed into a vessel and stirred until a precipitate precipitates from the solution. The thus formed suspension is diluted with a suitable solvent, for example, methanol, and an ammonium compound, for example, ammonium chloride, ammonium carbonate, ammonium hydrogen carbonate, ammonium sulfate, and an aldehyde, e.g., formaldehyde, are added. Subsequently, the reaction mixture is heated if necessary.




The thus obtained N-substituted imidazole is dissolved in a suitable solvent, for example THF; subsequently, the 1-halogen alkane is added. If necessary, the reaction mixture is heated. Subsequently, the product is separated, washed and dried.




In addition to the above mentioned synthesis there are also other synthesis methods known to the expert. The aromatic moiety can also be introduced in case of the imidazole via known coupling reactions (cf., e.g., Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reaction, described in detail below in connection with the triazolium compounds) or prepared via known syntheses, starting with isonitriles (R. S. Bon et al., J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 3542; R. S. Bon et al., Org. Lett. 2003, 5, 3759) and subsequent oxidation or via arynes (H. Yoshida, S. Sugiura, A. Kunai, Org. Lett. 2002, 4, 2767-2769).
The exchange of the halide anion is carried out in accordance with a method known to the expert, e.g., with the help of silver salts, alkali metal salts or ammonium salts, but also through acid/base neutralization reactions (Hurley, F. Wier, T. P., Jr., J. Electrochem. Soc. 1951, 98, 203-206: Chan, B. K. M.; Chang, N. Grimmett, M. R., Austr. J. Chem. 1977, 30 (9), 2005-2013: Wasserscheid/Welton, “Ionic liquids in synthesis”, Wiley-VCH 2007).
One aspect of the invention is also a method for the preparation of an inventive triazolium salt of the general formula (I), where Y1 is CH and Y2 is N, or is Y1 is N and Y2 is CH.
The preparation of an inventive triazolium salt of the general formula (I), with Y1 being CH and Y2 being N, occurs in two reaction steps. In this connection, the 1,2,4-triazole ring is built from the appropriate, optionally substituted, aniline (e.g., according to H. G. O. Baker, Gerda Hoffman, Kim Mun Gwan, L. Knüpper, Journal für praktische Chemie, Vol. 330, No. 3, 1988, 325-337 and references cited therein). In the second step—as already described above—the organic salt is prepared. Here the anions are also exchanged in accordance with known methods.




Triazole with different substituents in 3-position can be synthesized by simple reactions. The introduction of substituents in the 3-position occurs through ring formation reactions known to the expert.
The preparation of an inventive triazolium salt of the general formula (I), with Y1 being N and Y2 being CH, also occurs in two reaction steps. In this connection, the triazole ring is built preferably by Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reaction (e.g., according Henri-Jean Cristau, Pascal P. Cellier, Jean-Francis Spindler, Marc Taillefer, Chem. Eur. J. 2004, 10, 5607-5622). In the second step—as already described above—the organic salt is prepared. Here the anions are also exchanged according to known methods.




Other methods for the preparation of the inventive salts of the general formula (I) are known to the expert, for example, from M. R. Grimmett et. al.; Imidazole and Benzimidazole Synthesis; Academic Press; (1997) or from Gilchrist, Thomas; Heterocyclenchemie; VCH (1995) as well as A. R. Katritzky et al.; Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry III: Elsevier; (2008).
One aspect of the invention is also the use of an inventive salt, having a suitable anion, as an ionic liquid.
When a suitable anion is selected, the inventive imidazolium or triazolium salts at temperatures under 100° C., preferably at room temperature, are liquid and are useable as an ionic liquid.
An exchange of the bromide anions of the inventive salts for non-coordinating, more voluminous BTSA−, BF4− or PF6− anions leads e.g. to a strong drop of the melting points of these salts compared with the melting points of the bromide salts with the same cation.
The thus obtainable ionic liquids with BTSA− anions are characterized furthermore by an excellent thermal stability (decomposition at >400° C.) and a liquid range of more than 300° C.
Hence, the described properties are suitable particularly for use in batteries (or electric double layer capacitors) and fuel cells where high temperature stability is necessary in combination with good conductivity. Hence, one aspect of the invention is the use of the described compounds as an additive in batteries, electric double layer capacitors, and fuel cells.
One aspect of the invention is also the use of an inventive salt or an inventive ionic liquid as a solvent or solvent additive in electro-chemical applications, e.g., the deposition of metals (“plating”). In this connection, the particularly wide electro-chemical window in combination with the stabilization of the intermediates produced during deposition enables because of the special properties of the aromatic moieties that are substituted in a targeted fashion
The described properties are suitable on account of the great melting heat also for the use as a “phase changing material”, i.e., in connection with materials that compensate extreme temperature variations. Hence, one aspect of the invention is the use of the described compounds in thermodynamic applications.
Another aspect of the invention is the use of an inventive salt or an inventive ionic liquid as a solvent or solvent additive, e.g., in separating processes or in synthetic or catalytic reactions.
Such solutions can be also used in solar cells or OLEDs because, as a result of the substituents on the aromatic ring, advantageous properties are achievable for the impinging light, e.g. high quantum yield (fluorescence).
Another aspect of the invention is also the use of an inventive salt or an inventive ionic liquid as a solvent for renewable raw materials, for example, cellulose.
Another embodiment of the invention concerns methods for chemical reaction, encompassing the inventive salt or the inventive ionic liquid as a solvent or solvent additive. Such an inventive process can encompass reactions steps that are catalyzed by transition metals, enzymes or other biocatalysts that are preferably selected from hydroformylation reactions, oligomerization reactions and other C—C bond linking reactions, esterification reactions, isomerization reactions and reactions for amide bond linking.
Also an aspect of the invention is the use of an inventive salt or an inventive ionic liquid as a solvent in the depolymerization of polymers.
One embodiment of the invention is also the use of the inventive salt or the inventive ionic liquid for separation of substances, e.g., for extraction from ether mixtures. In this connection, the substance separation can also take place by means of gas chromatography processes that use π-π interaction of the aromatic ring and/or the electronic effects of the substituents R1-R5.
The inventive ionic liquids dissolve, for example, in cyclic ethers like tetrahydrofuran (THF), but not in non-cyclic ethers like diethylether. The different solubility of the ionic liquid in ethers can be used for the separation of compounds that are soluble in open-chain ethers because the ionic liquid does not dissolve therein. However, because of its excellent THF solubility the ionic liquid can be extracted.
Hence, the present invention also encompasses a process for the separation of substances, comprising the inventive ionic liquid as a solvent or solvent additive, e.g., a process for the extraction or for the separation of mixtures by means of organic cyclic and open-chain ethers.
The inventive salts or ionic liquids are also suited as a material for hydrogen storage.
Hence, the invention also encompasses the use of the inventive salts or ionic liquids for hydrogen storage.
Hydrogen is considered currently in many areas as a clean energy source. In contrast to the hydrocarbons used today, no CO2 is released when converting hydrogen to energy. However, one of the most important unsolved problems that currently still stands in the way of a further use of hydrogen, is a process for a safe and economic storage of hydrogen. Today, preferably high-pressure tanks and isolated liquid hydrogen tank systems as well as storage in hydrocarbons are used as conventional storage systems of hydrogen (E. Fakioglu, Y. Yurum, T. Nejat Veziroglu, Int. J. Hydrogen Energy 2004, 29, 1371). Chemical methods for the storage of hydrogen comprise the use of metal hydrides (e.g., MgH2) (S. R. Johnson, P. A. Anderson, P. P. Edwards, I. Gameson, J. W. Prendergast, M. Al-Mamouri, D. Book, I. R. Harris, J. D. Speight, A. Walton, Chem. Commun. 2005, 2823), imides (e.g., LiNH2) (P. Chen, Z. Xiong, J. Luo, J. Lin, K. L. Tan, Nature 2002, 420, 302), organometallic scaffolds (MOF) (e.g., Zn4O(1,4-benzodicarboxylat) (N. L. Rosi, J. Eckert, M. Eddaoudi, D. T. Vodak, J. Kim, M. OMKeeffe, O. M. Yaghi, Science 2003, 300, 1127; M. Latroche, S. Surblé, N. C. Serre, C. Mellot-Draznieks, P. L. Llewellyn, J. Lee, J. Chang, S. H. Jhung, G. Férey, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, 8227), alkali metal tetrahydroborides (e.g., LiBH4) (A. Zottel, P. Wenger, S. Rentsch, P. Sudan, P. Mauron, C. Emmenegger, J. Power Sources 2003, 118, 1), alanates (e.g., NaAlH4) (A. F. Hollemann, N. Wiberg, Lehrbuch der anorganischen Chemie, 1995, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin N.Y., 249-264), and chemical hydrides.
Hydrogen at room temperature is a colorless and odorless gas which is approx. 14.4 times lighter than air (density at 0° C. and 70 torr: 0.089870 g/l) (A. F. Hollemann, N. Wiberg, Lehrbuch der anorganischen Chemie, 1995, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin N.Y., 249-264). Furthermore hydrogen has the lowest melting temperature (−259.19° C.) and boiling temperature (−252.76° C.) next to helium. The critical temperature of hydrogen, above which hydrogen cannot be liquefied anymore, is −239.96° C. The critical pressure at 13.10 bar (A. F. Hollemann, N. Wiberg, Lehrbuch der anorganischen Chemie, 1995, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin N.Y., 249-264). For storage of hydrogen in liquid form extremely complex technical measures for cooling and temperature insulation are necessary. In this connection, the density amounts even at the critical point only to 31 g/l (A. F. Hollemann, N. Wiberg, Lehrbuch der anorganischen Chemie, 1995, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin N.Y., 249-264). Moreover, hydrogen is the element with the smallest density. Hence, hydrogen easily diffuses through porous partitions and even through metals (e.g., platinum).
Of special interest is the storage of hydrogen in a suitable solvent. However, the solubility of hydrogen in conventional solvents is very low; only 2.15 l (0.1932205 g) of hydrogen dissolve at 0° C. and a pressure of 1,013 mbar in 100 l of water.
Some of the problems of the “conventional” hydrogen storage systems can be avoided by chemical storage in the form of the ionic liquids known from the prior art. Moreover, in some cases a higher storage density of hydrogen is reached in comparison to conventional high pressure or liquid hydrogen tank systems; however, these systems are generally not available after release of hydrogen or only after complex processing for renewed hydrogen storage. Furthermore, often higher temperatures are required for the release of the stored hydrogen, partly of >500° C., (V. Sit, R. A. Geanangel, W. W. Wendlandt, Thermochim. Acta 1987, 113, 379; J. See Wang, R. A. Geanangel, Inorg. Chico. Acta 1988, 148, 185; G. Wolf, J. Baumann, F. Baitalow, F. P. Hoffmann, Thermochim. Acta 2000, 343, 19; F. Baitalow, J. Baumann, G. Wolf, K. Jaenicke-RPβbler, G. Leitner, Thermochim. Acta 2002, 391, 159; J. Baumann, F. Baitalow, G. Wolf, Thermochim. Acta in 2005, 343.19).
The stored hydrogen can however be released more easily from the inventive ionic liquids. Moreover, after the release of the dissolved hydrogen the inventive ionic liquid can be directly used again without further after treatment for renewed hydrogen storage.
In this connection, the hydrogen storage occurs preferably through dissolving of hydrogen in an inventive ionic liquid at temperatures between −50° C. and +300° C., particularly preferred at −10° C.-180° C., especially preferred at 0-60° C. as well as at a pressure of 0.1-400 bar, especially preferred from 0.5-300 bar, particularly preferred from 1-20 bar.
The hydrogen release from the inventive ionic liquid can be realized on account of the low vapor pressures of these inventive ionic liquids through a reduction of the surrounding gas pressure. In this connection, preferred for the hydrogen release are pressures of <5 bar, particularly preferred of <1 bar, especially preferred <0.8 bar.
Furthermore the hydrogen release can also be brought about through a temperature increase of the ionic liquid. In this connection, temperatures of from 0 to 350° C. are preferred, particularly preferred from 20 to 180° C., especially preferred from 60 to 140° C.


DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
With the aid of the following embodiments the invention will be explained in more detail.
General Work Techniques for Synthesis
Reactions with organometallic compounds, as far as noted, were carried out under exclusion of air and humidity in heat-treated glass apparatus using the Schlenk technique. As inert gases nitrogen or argon (purity 99.996%) were used without further purification.
Pentane and hexane were dried over CaCl2. THF was dried and purified by boiling under reflux over sodium metal; dichloromethane was predried over anhydrous CaCl2, main drying was carried out by distillation over calcium hydride under argon. Residual water was removed from DMF by distillation under argon and from methanol by heating over magnesium for several days.
NMR Spectroscopy
The NMR spectra were recorded either with a nuclear resonance spectrometer Bruker AC 300 P (1H: 300.1 MHz, 13C: 75.5 MHz, 19F: 282.4 MHz) or a Bruker DRX 500 (1H: 499.8 MHz, 13C: 125.8 MHz, 19F: 470.3 MHz) in deuterated solvents. Shifts of the 1H and 13C resonances are given in ppm relatively to tetramethylsilane, wherein as a reference the residual signal of the deuterated solvent is used. To guarantee the correct correlation of the 13C signals, the 13C spectra as well as the DEPT spectra were recorded of all compounds. Shifts of the 19F resonances are given relative to CCl3F. Coupling constants are given in Hz without indicating the sign wherein for the multiplicities of the single signals the following abbreviations are used: s: singlet; d: doublet; t: triplet; q: quartet; qi: quintet; sept: septet; in: multiplet; b: broad.
Example 1
General Procedure for the Synthesis of N-Substituted Imidazoles from Aromatic Amines




In the following the general synthesis procedure is described in an exemplary way for the use of formaldehyde as an aldehyde and ammonium chloride as an ammonium compound. Into a 1 l two-neck flask with reflux condenser, 0.1 mol of the appropriate aniline and 11.4 ml of 40% aqueous glyoxal solution (14.42 g, 0.1 mol) are added to 50 ml methanol and stirred first at room temperature, until a voluminous yellow precipitate precipitates from the solution. In case of activated aromatic moieties, for example, 4-anisidine, this happens within a few minutes, in case of deactivated aromatic moieties within up to 72 h. The thus formed suspension is diluted with additional 400 ml of methanol and 10.7 g of ammonium chloride (0.2 mol) and 16 ml of 37% formaldehyde solution (17.40 g, 0.21 mol) are added. Subsequently, the mixture is heated for the duration of one hour under reflux. By means of a dropping funnel within 10 min 14 ml of 85% phosphoric acid are added and subsequently the reaction mixture is heated for additional 4-8 hours.
After the reaction about 80% of the solvent is removed in a rotary evaporator and 300 ml ice water are added to the reaction mixture, before the reaction mixture is adjusted with potassium hydroxide solution (40% in water) to pH=9. Now the product is extracted three times with 300 ml dichloromethane, respectively, the combined organic phases are dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvent removed in the rotary evaporator. For purification, the product is distilled either in high vacuum with a Kugelrohr or recrystallized in 10 ml of hot ethyl acetate.

General synthesis procedure for imidazolium salts with bis(trifluoromethylsulfone)imidee anions




1.0 eq. of imidazolium bromide salt mixture is dissolved completely in water or a water/methanol mixture. Under constant stirring 1.1 eq. Li+(CF3SO2)2N− is added. When dosing so, two phases are formed in the reaction mixture after a few minutes. For completing the reaction, the reaction mixture is stirred for further 15 minutes. Subsequently, to the reaction mixture 15 ml dichloromethane is added. Then the organic phase and the aqueous phase are separated in a dropping funnel. The aqueous phase is extracted twice more with 10 ml dichloromethane. The organic phases are combined, dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent is removed in vacuum.

General synthesis procedure for imidazolium salts with tetrafluoroborate anions




1.0 eq. of the imidazolium bromide salt is completely dissolved in water or a water/methanol mixture. Under constant stirring NH4BF4 is added. When doing so, two phases are formed in the reaction mixture after a few minutes. For completion of the reaction the reaction mixture is stirred for additional 15 minutes. Subsequently, to the reaction mixture 15 ml dichloromethane is added and then the organic phase and the aqueous phase are separated in a dropping funnel. The aqueous phase is extracted twice more with 10 ml dichloromethane. The organic phases are combined, dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvent is removed in vacuum.

After 21 h at 110° C. the reaction mixture was cooled down. A DC check still indicated considerable amounts of the educt 1, so that additional 0.376 ml (0.508 g, 0.004 mol) of the educt 2 was added and stirring was continued for 24 h at 110° C. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature and the same volume petroleum ether was added.

0.300 g (0.002 mol) 1-phenyltriazole 1 and 0.842 ml (0.990 g, 0.006 mol) 1-bromohexane 2 were dissolved in a pressure tube in 5 ml THF. The reaction mixture was stirred 3 d at 110° C. On account of a broken seal the solvent had evaporated was after that time. 1-bromohexane 2 and THF were added again and stirring was continued. The reaction mixture was cooled down and the same volume petroleum ether added. The precipitated solid is filtered off, washed with petroleum ether, and dried in HV.
While the solvent had already evaporated the reaction seemed to run better, because this experiment provided considerably higher yields than all THF experiments.
