Abstract
Amphiphilic association in room-temperature ionic liquids (RT-ILs) — a “green” solvent shows analogies as well as clear differences from self-assembly in water. In this review, we summarize the known features of amphiphilic association structures in the form of micelles, microemulsions, vesicles and lyotropic liquid-crystalline phases in ionic liquids. Most of the methods making use of association to control reactivity could be developed also in RT-ILs and we give a few recently published examples of this strategy.
