Demonstrates solvent effects on reaction rates in organic chemistry, highlighting ionic liquids' significance for students.
Solvent effects on a typical SN2 reaction are discussed using Hughes–Ingold solvent effect rules and some Kamlet–Taft solvent parameters in the context of ionic liquids as solvent. The case is made that the discussion can and should be included during the first-year organic chemistry course because of the significance of solvent effects on reaction rate and the need to introduce students to the increasingly popular topic of environmentally friendly ionic liquids.
