Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [description]
1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, also known as BMIM-PF6, is a viscous, colourless, hydrophobic and non-water-soluble ionic liquid with a melting point[1] of -8 °C. Together with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, BMIM-BF4, it is one of the most widely studied ionic liquids. It is known to very slowly decompose in the presence of water.
| [Uses]
1-n-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate is an ionic liquid used for various reactions such as hydrogenations, asymmetric hydrogenations proceed in higher enantioselectivity than in homogeneous phase. It is also used in Suzuki cross-coupling.
| [solubility]
Miscible with acetone, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol and methylene chloride. Immiscible with hexane, toluene and water.
