title: Ionic liquids with perfluorinated alkoxyaluminates.
abstract: Ionic liquids with the weakly coordinating perfluoroalkoxyaluminate anions, Al(ORF)4-, are obtained by a metathesis reaction of LiAl(ORF)4 and [bmim]Cl or [bmpyr]Cl in high yields. The compounds [bmim][Al(hfip)4] and [bmpyr][Al(hfip)4] have surprisingly low viscosities at elevated temperatures (60 degrees C) and an exceptionally high electrochemical window, which might render them useful for certain applications.
