Abstract
The polymerizable monomer of 1-(6-hydroxyhexyl)-3-methylimiadazolium bromide ionic liquid (IL) was synthesized. The thin layer chromatography tests were conducted at each step to verify the reactions. It was observed that the ionic liquid compound formed after 48 hours though confirmed the presence of starting materials. A high viscous transparent liquid was extracted and believed to be formed of 99% yielding of ionic liquid. Apart from that, the synthesis of ionic liquid was also performed using microwave treatment and heating to stimulate the reaction. Surprisingly, it was observed that the reaction was taking place within a fraction of second when the synthesis process was conducted with microwave treatment. In the second step, esterification IL with methacryloyl chloride was done to obtain monomer of polymerizable ionic liquid (m-PIL). The final product was a high viscous yellowish liquid.
