Abstract

Different N-alkylated derivatives of ammonioundecahydro-closo-dodecaborate(1–), [B12H11NH3]–, were prepared. Strategies for the introduction of one alkyl chain or two equal alkyl chains and the trisubstitution by two different alkyl chains were developed. Several of the resulting salts have low melting points and are examples of a new class of ionic liquids.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2008)
