Abstract

Attempts to prepare novel air and moisture stable room-temperature ionic liquids have afforded a new 1,3-dialkylimidazolium tetraarylborate salt: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate, [bmim]BARF, 1. Crystal data: C80 H 54 b 2F48N4, monoclinic space group P2(1)/n, a = 21.2622(17) Å, b = 15.8037(13) Å, c = 26.227(2) Å, β = 101.841(2) , V = 8625.3(12) Å3, Z = 1.544.
