This trend leads to the exploration for novel reaction media. Room temperature ionic liquids as environmentally benign media for organic synthesis and catalytic reactions have been gradually recognized and accepted Owing to their unique chemical and physical properties, ionic liquids become promising candidates as recyclable reaction media for “ Green” applications. These nonvolatile solvents have been used as media or catalysts in dozens of fields, such as organic synthesis, organometallic catalytic reactions, separation and extraction processes.展开更多

Electrochemical reduction of benzoylformic acid in room temperature ionic liquids as reaction media could be conducted with excellent performances without any additional supporting electrolyte. Electrolysis at glassy carbon electrode results in the formation of mandelic acid in 91% yield. And the electrochemical behavior of benzoylformic acid was investigated with the technique of cyclic voltammetry.展开更多
