Abstract
Ionic liquids are being employed in almost all areas of chemistry and materials, yet there are inherent issues which arise if the utmost care is not taken in the preparation and purification of these materials. They are not easily synthesized and purified using the existing methods. We describe a reliable method for producing large quantities of high quality ionic liquids. Additionally, we show that imidazoliums are not ‘special’ due to their ‘inherently fluorescent’ nature, that spectroscopically clean imidazoliums are attainable, and most classes of ionic liquids do exhibit fluorescent backgrounds when extreme care is not taken during their synthesis and purification.
