Abstract

Abstract Novel Poly(ethyleneglycol)-400 ionic liquid containing imidazolium cations have been synthesized by the atom-efficient reaction of 1,2-dimethylimidazole with p-toluenesulfonate; the p-toluenesulfonate provides the anionic component of the resultant ionic liquid. It have been used for the first time as a new solvent for the Morita–Baylis–Hillman reaction under ambient conditions. A wide variety of aldehydes and active olefins participate very efficiently, resulting in good to excellent yields of products.
