title: Computational studies on organic reactivity in ionic liquids.
abstract: Computational studies on organic reactions in ionic liquids (ILs) are analysed from different points of view. Important information about reaction mechanisms in ILs has been obtained from these studies although the theoretical approaches are still not able to give an exhaustive picture of the chemical processes occurring in ionic media. Challenges and perspectives of this investigation field are discussed and the fundamental role played by experimental results in the development of this intriguing sector is pointed out.
