1-Methyl-3-Octylimidazolium Bromide, CAS: 61545-99-1

Key Applications:

Catalysis

• Serves as a reaction medium for acid‑, base‑, and metal‑catalyzed transformations.
• Enhances selectivity and turnover in biphasic and phase‑transfer catalytic systems.
• Supports recyclable catalytic platforms due to its non‑volatile, thermally stable nature.

Solvent and Extraction Medium

• Functions as a designer solvent for organic synthesis, separations, and biomass processing.
• Effective in liquid–liquid extraction of metal ions, dyes, and organic compounds due to its amphiphilic cation and halide anion.
• Useful in tuning polarity and viscosity in mixed‑solvent systems.

Electrochemistry

• Provides a wide electrochemical window suitable for electrodeposition, redox studies, and ionic‑liquid‑based electrolytes.
• Offers stable ionic conductivity and low volatility for high‑temperature or vacuum electrochemical setups.

Battery and Energy Materials

• Investigated as a component in electrolytes for lithium‑ion and next‑generation batteries.
• Contributes to improved thermal stability and reduced flammability in electrolyte formulations.
