title: Dual-functionalised ionic liquids: synthesis and characterisation of imidazolium salts with a nitrile-functionalised anion.
abstract: A series of 'dual-functionalised' ionic liquids, comprising imidazolium cations with various functionalities and the nitrile functionalised anion [CH3CH(BF3)CH2CN]- have been prepared; some exhibit very low viscosities-a highly valuable property in many applications.
