Based on our previous work using anhydrous AlCl3 as catalyst, [bupy]BF4-AlCl3 ionic liquids were employed to catalyze the reaction of 1,3-pentadiene with toluene. The experimental results show that [bupy]BF4-AlCl3 ionic liquids are suitable for the reaction especially when the molar ratio of AlCl3 to [bupy]BF4 is 1.75 ： 1, and the reaction could proceed at the temperature as low as 0℃. It could be as active as pure AlCl3, but much more environmentally friendly.展开更多

Full optimization and frequency analyses of EMIM＋, AlCl4^-, ten initial EMIM＋-AlCl4^- geometries have been carried out using the Gaussian-94 soft-package at 6- 31＋G（d,p） basis set level for hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, chlorine, and aluminum atoms. The electronic structures of the lowest energy of EMIM＋-AlCl4^-pairs, single EMIM^＋, and AlCl4^- have been comparatively studied. The calculated results showed that the optimized EMIM^＋-AlCl4^-pair conformer of lowest energy was AlCl4^-outside the five-ring plane between methyl group and ethyl group with a H6--C122 distance of 2.7 A. The frequency analyses suggested that all stationary points were minimum points because of no imaginary frequency appearing, and the assigned frequencies were in agreement with experimental report. The interaction energy between EMIM^＋ and AlCl4^-was 776.2 kJ/mol.展开更多

The ionic liquids were prepared with different molar ratios of Et3NHC1 to A1CI3, and the effect of the molar ratio between A1C13 and Et3NHC1, the reaction time, the reaction temperature, the ionic liquid dosage, as well as the molar ratio of toluene to chloro- 2-methylpropane on the alkylation reaction of toluene with chloro-2-methyl-propane was investigated. The test results showed that the acidic ionic liquids prepared with Et3NHC1 and A1C13 had good activity and selectivity for the alkylation reaction of toluene with alkyl chloride to produce PTBT. The optimal reaction conditions were specified at an A1C13 to Et3N- HCI ratio of 1.6, a reaction temperature of 20 ℃, a mass fraction of toluene to ionic liquid of 10%, and a chloro-2-methyl- propane to toluene molar ratio of 0.5. Under the suitable reaction conditions, a 98% conversion of chloro-2-methylpropane and an 82.5% selectivity of PTBT were obtained. Ionic liquids could be reused 5 times with its catalytic activity unchanged, and the regenerated ionic liquids can be recycled.展开更多
