Experimental and theoretical structure of ionic liquids

Ionic liquids (ILs) can be composed from a large number of cations and anions, with an estimated number of possible ILs on order 1018, which makes this class of compounds as one of the largest known in chemistry. Knowledge of the physical properties of ILs and the phase behavior withgases, liquids, and solids (including inorganic salts) is important for evaluating an selecting ILs for each application as well as process design. ILs have recently become very popular as potential solvents for industrial applications in many different disciplines of science and environment. Enormous progress was made during the recent 10 years to synthesize new low-melting ILs that can be handled under ambient conditions, and nowadays more than 350 ILs are already commercially available.
