| Ionic liquids have gained tremendous interest as potentially beneficial media in organic and inorganic transformation. Surprisingly, very few examples of chiral ionic liquids have been reported in the literature so far. In our contribution, we report for the first time the synthesis and applications of new chiral ionic liquids (ChirILs) derived from pinene. These ChirILs are found to be effective ‘enantioselective phase transfer catalyst’ in the 1,4 addition reaction. These are also useful as ‘chiral solvent’ for enantioselctive transformations. Furthermore, these ChirILs could be easily recycled and reused without loss of performance. |
