Abstract:
Building chemical functionality into the molecular framework of ionic liquids provides an approach to generating new fluid materials which exhibit the many advantages of ionic liquids along with the chemo-selective properties of the functionalising unit. Many applications for such materials are easy to envisage including homogeneous catalysis, chemical sensors and energy storage devices. In this presentation, the synthesis and characterization of quinone-functionalised ionic liquids along with a detailed description of the electrochemical properties will be presented. Their application as redox catalysts in chemical transformations and as electrical energy storage materials will also be presented.
