title: Nanoscale heterogeneous structure of ionic liquid as revealed by magnetic field effects.
abstract: Large magnetic field effects (MFEs) observed for photoinduced hydrogen abstraction reaction between benzophenone and thiophenol in an ionic liquid (N,N,N,-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide, TMPA TFSA) are analyzed by using the stochastic Liouville equation for the first time. The sphere cage model can well reproduce the observed MFEs and the nanoscale heterogeneous structure with a cage radius of 1.8 +/- 0.3 nm, and an effective viscosity in the cage of 1-2 cP is found to be formed in TMPA TFSA.
