Understanding Solvent-Solute Interactions In Ionic Liquids: Studies of the Ferricenium/Ferrocene Redox Couple

摘要

The use of ionic liquids as green reaction media in industrially relevant processes has increased dramatically in the last years (1).Many of these reactions are metal-mediated processes and,because metal complexes are expected to behave differently in ionic liquids than in conventional solvents,fundamental questions about solvent-solute interactions in ionic liquids have arisen.
