Abstract

1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen carbonate ([BMIm][HCO₃]), prepared from the reaction of [BMIm]Cl with K₂CO₃ in methanol, exhibits high activity for the carbonylation of amines to produce formamides. Computational calculation results on the carbonylation reaction of methylamine implies that such high activity of [BMIm][HCO₃] could be ascribed to the bi-functional actions of [HCO₃]^- as a hydrogen atom acceptor and a donor.
