41. 9b The ionic liquid left in the reaction vessel was rinsed with ether (2 mL) and dried under vacuum at 90°C for 2 h to eliminate any water trapped from moisture and reused for subsequent reactions. To compensate for the loss of some ionic liquid during washing, an amount (200 mg) of fresh ionic liquid was added after five runs. This procedure was followed for all the reactions listed in Table 1. However, in bis-additions, 2 equiv of methyl acrylate and acrylonitrile was used.
