title: Alkoxy chains in ionic liquid anions; effect of introducing ether oxygen into perfluoroalkylborate on physical and thermal properties.
abstract: The melting point and viscosity of [CF(3)OCF(2)CF(2)BF(3)](-) based ionic liquids are significantly lower than those of [CF(3)CF(2)CF(2)CF(2)BF(3)](-) based ionic liquids, indicating that the oxygen atom plays a key role in the preparation of low-melting and low-viscosity ionic liquids.
