Synthesis, characterization and the antimicrobial activity of new eco-friendly ionic liquids.
A green microwave-assisted procedure for the preparation of a series of 24 new 1-alkyl-3-ethylimidazolium ionic liquids with different functional groups in the alkyl chain is described. Moreover, the synthesis of a variety of ten new geminal dicationic ionic liquids is reported. Their structures were characterized by FT-IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, (11)B, (19)F, (31)P, and mass spectrometry. Several ionic liquids were selected for antimicrobial activity studies, yielding very interesting and promising results.
