Ionic liquids are molten salts that have excellent chemical and thermal stability. Because
they have qualities inherent to some precepts of green chemistry, they are identified as a …

Replacing conventional solvents by ionic liquids is often suggested as a possible route to
greener industrial processes. However, ionic liquids are typically petroleum-derived. This …

Ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as a new class of materials, displaying a unique capability
to self-assemble into micelles, liposomes, liquid crystals, and microemulsions. Despite …

In previous work with thermally robust salts [Cassity et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2017,
19, 31560] it was noted that an increase in the dipole moment of the cation generally led to a …

Since the introduction of click chemistry by KB Sharpless in 2001, its exploration and
exploitation has occurred in countless fields of materials sciences in both academic and …

Solvents are at the heart of many research and industrial chemical processes and consumer
product formulations, yet an overwhelming number are derived from fossils. This is despite …

The replacement of unsaturation with a cyclopropane motif as a (bio) isostere is a
widespread strategy in bacteria to tune the fluidity of lipid bilayers and protect membranes …

The practical utility of ionic liquids (ILs) makes the absence (heretofore) of reported
examples from nature quite puzzling, given the facility with which nature produces many …

The synthesis of a series of new lipid‐inspired ionic liquids through thiol‐ene “click” reaction
with a single‐step process. This synthesis offers considerable promise as an efficient and …

Lipidic ionic liquids (ILs) possessing long alkyl chains as well as low melting points have the
potential to provide unique selectivity as well as wide operating ranges when used as …
