ABSTRACT
Introduction Over the past decade, room temperature ionic liquids have been emerged as a new class of stable and inert solvents. ey exhibit high thermal stability, high polarity due to their ionic nature and a great ability to solubilize polar and nonpolar organic compounds. To date, various organic reactions have been carried out and investigated in ionic liquids, such as conjugate addition of sulfonamides [1, 2], azide ion [3], amines and N-heterocycles [4, 5], indoles [6], thiocyanide ion [7], active methylenes [8, 9], and thiols [10] to electrophilic alkenes, and other carbon-carbon, carbon-nitrogen, carbon-oxygen as well as carbon-sulfur bonds formation [11, 12].
