Ionic liquids with other anions • (for example, halides, sulphates, or carboxylates) • decomposed on distillation. • The principal mechanism of decomposition was by • dealkylation or transalkylation of the cation. • This is aided by a nucleophilic anion.
No feasible mechanism to transfer a proton to the anion R = H , CH3
