Ionic liquids have generated much interest due to their potential green chemistry applications. They are considered to be environmentally friendlier solvent alternatives to traditional volatile (and hazardous) organic solvents because of their lack of vapor pressure under standard conditions. We report here on the physical characterization of 4-Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) based ionic liquids. Unlike more common imidazolium type ionic liquids there is a lack of the physical data on DMAP salts. The DMAP salts were synthesized using various alkylating agents such as 3-chloropropanol and 2-bromoethyl ethyl ether. The halide salts were converted to ionic liquids bearing bis(trifyl)imide anions. Physical properties investigated include: viscosity, conductivity and thermal profile. Preliminary results indicate that the ionic liquids containing alkyl groups with a single hydroxyl unit have the lowest viscosity (109 cP) and highest conductivity (0.80 mS cm-1) at room temperature.
