1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, CAS: 284049-75-8

Key Applications:

• Biomass dissolution and fractionation — Efficiently dissolves cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, enabling pretreatment, fractionation, and regeneration workflows for biofuels, bioplastics, and advanced materials.
• Biopolymer processing — Solubilizes chitin, chitosan, starch, and other natural polymers for film formation, fiber spinning, and homogeneous derivatization.
• Catalysis and organic synthesis — Functions as a polar, aprotic medium for transition‑metal catalysis, C–C coupling, oxidation, esterification, and other transformations requiring strong hydrogen‑bond basicity.
• CO₂ capture and gas separation — Exhibits high CO₂ solubility and selectivity, supporting post‑combustion capture, membrane absorption, and purification processes.
• Electrochemical systems — Provides a stable, conductive medium for electrochemical studies, capacitors, redox systems, and electrocatalytic reactions.
• Extraction and separation — Enables selective dissolution and recovery of metal ions, organic acids, aromatics, and other target species in recycling and purification workflows.
• Cellulose regeneration and materials development — Supports ionic‑liquid‑assisted spinning, casting, and regeneration of cellulose into fibers, films, aerogels, and sustainable composites.
