Hydrophobic Brønsted acid-base ionic liquids based on PAMAM dendrimers with high proton conductivity and blue photoluminescence.
A simple strategy has been described to synthesize a novel hydrophobic Brønsted acid-base ionic liquid based on a PAMAM dendrimer. The resulting ionic liquid is highly fluorescent and proton conductive with great potential for sensors and nonaqueous proton-conducting electrolytes.
