Abstract

A family of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide-based ionic liquids of composition [RE5(C2H5-C3H3N2-CH2COO)16(H2O)8](Tf2N)15 (RE = Er, Ho, Tm; C3H3N2 ≡ imidazolium moiety) featuring the cationic, record quindecim {15+} charged pentanuclear rare earth (RE)-containing ion [RE5(C2H5-C3H3N2-CH2COO)16(H2O)8]15+ has been synthesized and characterized. In addition, due to the presence of rare earth ions, these ionic liquids show a response to magnetic fields with the highest effective magnetic moment observed so far for an ionic liquid and are rare examples of ionic liquids showing luminescence in the near-infrared. These ionic liquids also were successfully employed in a three-component synthesis of 2-pyrrolo-3′-yloxindole with an extremely low (<0.035 mol%) catalyst loading rate.
