title: Imidazolium ionic liquids containing selenium: synthesis and antimicrobial activity.
abstract: The synthesis and antimicrobial profile of imidazolium ionic liquids containing selenium are described herein. Minimum inhibitory concentration revealed that these compounds are especially active against algae, and their activity is modulated by substituents attached to the selenium moiety as well as by the counterion.
