source flame atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS-FAAS). Simple
standard solutions of K, Li or Na (0.05, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.5 μg/g) were used
for calibration. It was found that the samples' solutions of the investigat-
ed CILs contain proper metal below its limit of quantification (LOQ)
assessed for HR-CS-FAAS as 0.005 μg/g. Considering the sample masses
and the final volumes of the samples' solution it corresponded to the
metal content below 0.25 μg/g.

.3.2.5. 1,3-Bis[(1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthoxymethyl]imidazolium thiocyanate
Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry [47]. The investigations were
carried out for the synthesized salts (2–6) at 20 °C (± 0.5 °C) and at
50 °C (± 0.5 °C) under ambient pressure using popular solvents. The
phrase complete solubility describe those salts which are soluble
(0.1 g ± 0.01 g of each) in 1 mL (± 0.01 mL) of solvent, while the limited
solubility specifies those CILs in which 0.1 g (± 0.01 g) of each salts is
soluble in 3 mL (± 0.1 mL) of solvent. The expression insoluble was
used to characterize insolubility of the compound (0.1 g ± 0.01 g of
the salt in 3 mL ± 0.1 mL of solvent).

3. Results and discussion
The studied new symmetrical chiral ionic liquids based on
(1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthol (2–6) were synthesized as shown in Scheme
1. In the first step, chloromethyl (1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthyl ether was ob-
tained by chloromethylation of (1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthol [30]. Then 1-
(1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthoxymethylimidazole was prepared following
the published method: trimethylamine reacted with terpene ether in
toluene, then imidazole was added in order to perform N-
alkoxymethylation [37]. Previously, we described two different methods
of obtaining 1,3-bis[(1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthoxymethyl]imidazolium chlo-
ride (1) [37]. In the first method chloromethyl (1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthyl
ether reacted with stoichiometric amount of 1-(1R,2S,5R)-(−)-
menthoxymethylimidazole in hexane. In the second method the reaction
between two equivalents of chloromethyl (1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthyl ether
and one equivalent of imidazole took place in DMF. In this study the sym-
metrical chloride with two monocyclic terpene moieties (1) has been
used as a precursor of new chiral ionic liquids via metathesis reaction.
