Abstract:
The reaction of the proton–deuterium exchange of acetone in imidazolium-based ionic liquid (IL)–deuterium oxide mixtures was studied in detail via NMR spectroscopy. Certain ILs exhibit considerable catalytic properties and contribute to the course of reaction up to the complete deuteration. The efficiency of deuterium exchange crucially depends on the features of ILs; the type of anion and chain length of cation. The linear secondary isotope effects on the NMR chemical shifts of the 13C atoms in acetone were observed depending on the deuteration level of the molecule.The reaction of the proton–deuterium exchange of acetone in imidazolium-based ionic liquid (IL)–deuterium oxide mixtures was studied in detail via NMR spectroscopy.
