Hydrophobic Brønsted Acid−Base Ionic Liquids Based on PAMAM Dendrimers with High Proton Conductivity and Blue Photoluminescence

Abstract

A simple strategy has been described to synthesize a novel hydrophobic Brønsted acid-base ionic liquid based on a PAMAM dendrimer. The resulting ionic liquid is highly fluorescent and proton conductive with great potential for sensors and nonaqueous proton-conducting electrolytes.
