N-ethylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

1-Ethylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate [EPy][BF₄} is an ionic liquid that can be used as:

• A reaction medium in the Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reactions of acrylonitrile with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde to yield MBH adducts.
• A solvent in the Diels-Alder reactions?of isoprene?with dienophiles.
• A component of a binary mixture, which is employed in the solute-solvent interaction studies using vitamins like nicotinic acid and ascorbic acid.
