Review of ionic liquids with fluorine-containing anions

Interest in ionic liquids has grown markedly in recent years. The syntheses, characterization and properties of quaternary alkyl-substituted ammonium, imidazolium, triazolium and pyridinium salts with a variety of fluorine-containing anions have been studied in detail; however, ionic liquids with other cations and anions continue to be discovered. This review is limited to the literature from 2000 to 2005 dealing with ionic liquids with fluorine-containing anions.
