LMOG-gelled RTIL systems were unprecedented for use in gas separations. We are in the process of designing new LMOG structures specifically for RTIL gelation and use as a new type of CO 2 separation ...
One example is a Lewis-acidic RTIL containing a pendant borane (i.e., 9-borobicyclononane (9-BBN)) group that can dative bond with Lewis-basic TICs, such as ammonia gas, volatile amines, and phosphine ...
