Thermoregulated biphasic ionic liquids : effective catalysts in aldehydic-amide condensation reaction

Abstract EN

Novel acid polymeric ionic liquids with thermoregulated biphasic performance were synthesized and applied in the aldehydic–amide condensation reaction.

The yields were satisfactory and the catalysts showed a unique thermoregulated self-separating nature in the reaction system.

Such catalytic system was proved to be applicable to several substrates.

Recycling experiment showed the catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for six times without appreciable loss of activity
