Abstract

This chapter discusses the application of ionic liquids as solvent systems for the electrochemical study and electrosynthesis of organic molecules, highlighting some particular examples, with the aim to compare any similarities and differences observed in ionic liquids to behavior observed in conventional solvents. The effect of cosolvents on redox mechanisms and efficiency is discussed. Examples of electrochemical studies related to the oxidation of aromatic rings, amines, and sulfur-containing compounds, as well as the reduction of conjugated alkenes, haloalkanes, aromatic rings, and carbonyl- and nitro-containing compounds are discussed.
