| Abstract: | As a novel substituting solvent for organic solvents, low-temperature ionic liquids have attracted much attention as good media in organic synthesis and other chemical processes. Better understanding of physical properties of ionic liquids are very helpful in exploring reaction mechanisms and controlling reaction outputs. This review summarises current studies on several physical properties (melting point, vapor pressure and stability, polarity, miscibility, density, viscosity) that are important for organic reactions. |
