Although imidazolium room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have found considerable application, they are not the “inert” solvents that they are frequently considered to be. In particular, the 2 position is prone to deprotonation to form a stabilized carbene. Although this can be beneficial, it can also result in unwanted side reactions under basic conditions. We have studied the acidity of this position in substituted and unsubstituted imidazolium RTILs and discovered that even simple Me substitution does not avoid reasonably facile deprotonation at this site.
