Introduction

Chiral Ionic Liquids: Applications in Chemistry and Technology provide an in-depth exploration of the synthesis, design, and diverse applications of chiral ionic liquids (CILs) in modern chemistry. This comprehensive book covers fundamental concepts such as ionic liquids' structural organization and chirality, while also discussing advanced topics like enantiomeric separations, organocatalysis, and chiral recognition. Through ten detailed chapters, the book addresses carbohydrate-based CILs, CILs from amino acids and terpenoids, and their roles in capillary electrophoresis, chromatography, and spectroscopic techniques. This resource is valuable for researchers and industry professionals working in organic synthesis, materials science, and applied chemistry.
