Tunable aryl imidazolium ionic liquids (TAIILs) as environmentally benign catalysts for the esterification of fatty acids to biodiesel fuel

Herein, we describe the synthesis of tunable aryl imidazolium ionic liquid catalysts and tested for esterification of fatty acids to biodiesel. In this work, six tunable aryl imidazolium ionic liquids (TAIILs) 1a-1f were prepared. These ionic liquids were used as the economical and reusable catalyst...
