Abstract
Various metal-containing ionic liquids were used as catalysts for Friedel-Crafts reactions. The reaction of R-X with benzene in the presence of M-IL (M = Fe, Zn, Cd, Cu) along with 1-glycyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Gmim] Cl) ionic liquid, leads to the development of several key intermediates. Among them, metal-iron showed higher catalytic activity without organic solvents. This technique features high yield, a simple product isolation, ILs reusability and reduced waste discharge, thus rendering this catalytic system both effective and natural friendly.
